Perfect for our family

We had 3 couples and a baby and the space was perfect for us all. The Village was quiet but perfect for walking around and our toddler free to roam. Our condo had great family space and each couple enjoyed privacy as well. Very family friendly.

Amazing spot!!

This place was better than expected! It is spacious (bigger than pics) and has a great floor plan. The beds were super comfortable and kitchen was perfect! My teens loved exploring the property and also the fact that elevator opens to the room. It was a little dead but we didn’t mind the chill factor. Great live music that filled the place during happy hour. Perfect 5 day getaway. Don’t hesitate on booking this place- you will not regret it!

A Family Get Together

The unit was perfect for our family get together! The four bedrooms and 4 bathroom provided privacy while the spacious common areas invited everyone to gather. The location of the unit in North Star provided us with a base of operations to enjoy rafting, hiking, shopping and dining in Truckee and along the shore of Lake Tahoe, along with a visit to Donner Pass. We will be returning in future years!

Perfect Location!

The entire process -starting with Lauren in reservations was easy. The home is absolutely one of the best homes we’ve rented through VRBO. Easy check in, spotless, location is a 10, ski in ski out, equipment locker downstairs so you don’t have to drag all your equipment upstairs, room for everyone and the home is fully stocked. Large balcony over looking skating rink and the elevator that opens directly into your home is convenient. Even in the summer months this would be the perfect spot to vacation.

Star of Northstar

Beautiful property with a big lovely deck overlooking the village rink and all the activities that go on down there as well as the surrounding trees. Close to shops and restaurants just steps away...Well appointed but would have appreciated a few items in the kitchen like sugar so we didn't have to get dressed and go downstairs to Starbucks for morning coffee. The master bath floor was not clean and one of the blankets on the bed was dirty as well. (May need a better cleaning service). We would stay there again as it is very nice and we very much enjoyed the property and location !

Amazing condo.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit exceeded our expectations! The pictures don’t even begin to show how amazing the unit is. The unit was nicely decorated and had a gourmet kitchen. Easy access to the unit from the parking garage and main activities on the main level. Very quiet at night but the center of all the activities during the day. The management was extremely attentive to any of our needs.
