Check in was super easy. The place is clean, well laid out, with enough room for multiple people to have their own space while at the same time having a large dining area, large living room/sitting area, and large deck for everybody to get together. More bikes, scooters, balls, puzzles, games, beach chairs, books, other stuff than you can possibly take advantage of in less than a week. The kitchen has top of the line appliances, with more different pots, pans, utensils, knives, plates, glasses, etc. than you are likely to use (but they are all there if and when you need them). Beds super comfortable, hot tub great, washer/dryer first class. Can't say enough. Just 10/10 in every way.

Amazing Summer Stay in Northstar

We had such an incredible time at this Northstar home. It has everything you need for summer fun - SUPs and bikes and water toys. The pool is quite nice, and we've stayed in most of the HOAs with pools in the area--this was our favorite. The home itself was perfect for a family with teens who enjoyed the separate upstairs den while we could relax on the deck or the other living room area. Easy walk to the village with food options and roller skating. Or an easy 15 minute drive into Kings Beach at lake tahoe or Truckee. For us, with friends in the area, the central location was key. I hope we can come back soon!

Great place for families

We were a group of friends with kids and this place was perfect. Spacious, very well-equipped, and close to the Highlands gondola plus free on-demand shuttle to the village that picks you up at the house. Communication with the host was great, though staying here over MLK, it wasn’t possible to get a minor technical issue in the kitchen resolved promptly — but that wasn’t a huge issue. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay here very much!

Beautiful home, perfect for multiple families skiing

Hands down the best place we've stayed in Northstar. The home is beautiful with a great kitchen that made preparing meals for our group super easy. The shuttles were super convenient, door to village - and worst case the ski down Home Run + 10 minute walk to the house was really not bad either as an alternative.

Very lovely home but take note…

Very lovely, clean and easy home to stay for my family and me. Lots of space upstairs and downstairs. Super helpful to have 4 full bathrooms (2 downstairs and 2 upstairs). The playroom/game space was great for the kids. Lots of toys, although quite a few were pretty old and falling apart. My kids (1 year old and 3 year old) loved playing with the play food and kitchen but were also fascinated by the stairs which are right outside the playroom. The AC units work okay in the bedrooms but it got pretty stuffy at night and only some windows have screens, so we couldn’t open as many windows as we would have liked. There also aren’t a ton of places to play outside since you’re in the forest (obviously) and it’s tough to walk around due to pretty steep roads (need a car/shuttle to get to the Northstar Village or anywhere). Also take note that the bed in the master bedroom downstairs is about 4 feet off the ground. If you have elderly people or folks with limited mobility staying with you, they’ll probably have some difficulty with the downstairs bedroom (like my parents did). Overall we enjoyed the house but did want to mention some of the above things we noticed during our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Deb Kennedy

Host profile image
We built this lovely home in 2005 and enjoyed living in it permanently for a year with our four kids prior to returning to the Bay Area. Call me with any questions or inquiries: 925-915-1003.

Why they chose this property

Newer and higher-end home near lifts. Can walk down to the village and on a good snow day, ski down to homerun lift. Northstar is a destination resort for all seasons with snow sports in the winter and great hiking and Mt. biking the rest of the year.

What makes this property unique

This is a family home and has great play areas for the kids, as well as toys and games for the entire family.

We have sleds, snow-shoes, toys, books, games etc for the kids since we have 4 kids, now ages 12-19, who spent a lot of time there since they were 5.
