Great stay
We very much enjoyed our stay at this condo. Location was great, very clean condo, well maintained and close to the northstar shuttle stop. Perfect spot for our family of 4 and we’ll definitely be back.

Total Package
Mimi’s NS Resort Condo is the perfect size for a small gathering getaway. The main room has a nice view to check the conditions before walking one minute to the on demand shuttle. Would def recommend.

Perfect for the family ski trip!
The property was exactly as advertised - a short walk or convenient (free) shuttle ride to the village (all the benefits without all the noise!) - and it worked great for us. Definitely better than a local hotel!

Fabulous trip
What is not to like. The location is fabulous: just steps from a shuttle to the village with a trail head right in the backyard. The condo is super clean and comfortable and Mimi is the most responsive and helpful host I've had the pleasure of working with.

Comfortable stay
Our family had an enjoyable 2-night stay at Mimi’s condo. Check-in and out was easy, beds were comfortable, lovely views from the living room, and the shuttle stop was just outside the parking area. If arriving at night, you’d want a flashlight as the path to the condo is dimly lit. We appreciated the detailed pre- check in email from Mimi with helpful information.

About the host

Hosted by Mimi

Host profile image
We are an outdoors family and have enjoyed Northstar for the last 20years. As educators we were able to spend vacation time in a perfect setting where there is something for everyone to enjoy!

Why they chose this property

With Northstar having the best bike park around, our sons enjoyed mountain biking and the rec area, along with the independence this self-contained resort offers. While they biked we golfed or played tennis. The resort makes it easy to grab a quick meal any time of day, and the 10-minute walk from our condo to the village is easy. There is also free Shuttle. We love the convenience of having Lake Tahoe or Truckee just 10 miles away. Each year we celebrate our anniversary at Garwoods, on the lake.

What makes this property unique

All of us enjoy something different. My husband likes the boat show, golf, and the variety of restaurants. We both enjoy playing Pickleball, whether at Northstar or in the community. The boys like the biking, skiing, rock climbing. I like sitting on the balcony and enjoying the quiet, the birds, and a good book. We all like to get away from the big city, laughing at each other at the skating rink, and using the pool.
