About this property

LAST MINUTE LABOR DAY SPECIAL - COME EARLY STAY LATE!

DO LABOR DAY UP RIGHT! CHECK IN AT 8AM FRIDAY AND CHECK OUT MONDAY AT 5PM! We want you to enjoy your weekend to its fullest this Labor Day - So no early check in or out charges this weekend! $180/night!

AVOID THE LINE INTO NORTHSTAR! NO PARKING AT THE AIRPORT! AVOID THE SHUTTLE, AVOID PARKING RESERVATIONS AND PARKING FEES, AVOID WALKING THROUGH THE VILLAGE CARRYING ALL YOUR GEAR! MANY SKI TRAIL UNITS ARE NOT SKI TRAIL! The majority require walking accross the parking lot. Just walk out the door, down the stairs, grab your skiis/Boards out of your personal locker, walk another 15 feet, step into your skiis, and off you go (assuming there is snow)! OR, walk down around the corner and put your skiis on at the trail! Or if you really want - call the bus and go down to the village that way! Ski home for lunch! Private parking. This is a REAL ski in ski out - no walking from the units that are not near the trail, or driving over to another (our) parking lot. There are only a handful of actual Ski Trails on VRBO!

*** WE ALWAYS HOPE FOR SNOW! - PLEASE CONSIDER TRIP CANCELLATION INSURANCE IF YOU ARE NERVOUS ABOUT DRIVING IN THE WINTER WITH CHAINS, OR WAITING ON I-80, OR NO SNOW. ***

Ready for the perfect Ski weekend? Stay at Northstar Ski Trails, roll out of bed, have some coffee, hit the slopes at when the lifts open. No extra time in traffic, parking, busses, schlepping gear. Then go relax in one of the three hot tubs at the recreation center! Finish up in the village for a stroll around, and relax at the ice rink (weather dependant), and maybe a fresh made pizza from Rubicon or a Burger at Inclined Burger with an adult beverage! Take the free shuttle back up to the unit and have a nice hot cup of cocoa, or maybe your favorite brew while you relax in front of a REAL wood burning fireplace!

What sets our unit above the rest of the units?? First, it really is on the ski trail. Next, if there are no renters before or after you, and we can make it work with the cleaning crew, we are happy to make accommodations for an early check in, or late check out if you let us know in advance! Arrive at 8am the first day and get another day of skiing in! Sleep in on the last day, or head out for a last day of fun - come early, and stay late. Why waste your entire last day traveling? Get a full day of fun in! We are NOT a large company, this is our only unit - so we can try to work with you!

This one bedroom, one bath has a queen size bed, and a couch with a queen size pull-out. New carpet NOV 2023! The condo is fully furnished with all the amenities you could need. Bring the groceries and you don't have to go back to your car till you are headed home. If you don't want to cook, stroll down to the Village for scrumptious meals. If you do not want to walk, call the Shuttle Bus to come get you and take you to wherever you want in Northstar! During Tahoe Winters, there is no limit on the fun you can have. We don't have fancy granite countertops and a palacial shower, but it is clean, well stocked, and functional with a few USB plugs in the outlets as well as Netflix & Roku on the TV!

This is an upstairs unit, so no noise from the neighbors above you! The neighbors Unit is privately owned, and is never noisy. The kitchen is stocked with minor items such as salt, pepper, a wide variety of seasonings, etc, pots, pans (new Summer 2021), Power Airfryer XL (two separate cooking units), utensils, fondue pot, blender, a Keurig Duo for K cups OR drip, tea kettle (for that all important hot cocoa), toaster, and microwave (new Summer 2022), all of which are available for your use.

Enjoy access to the Northstar recreation center ($10/guest). Enjoy the sauna, hot tubs, lap pool (year round), pool (Summer), exercise room, tennis courts, volleyball, basketball courts (Summer and outdoors of course), and game room. After you take a short rest from skiing, head down to the village and try your hand at ice skating or have a warm drink while spending time with old friends, or making new ones around the fire pits. If you just cant get away from work, feel free to use our free internet. There are also some DVDs, Netflix, Roku, board games, and a few books, if you want to spend some time inside, or the weather did not turn out as you wanted.

For longer stays (or mishaps) there is a full size washer and dryer on the same level as the unit. There is no charge for the use of the washer and dryer and we normally leave a little soap in the closet (unless someone takes it).

There is a small bin with some kids snow boots, kids gloves, snow toys (Arctic Shields, snow ball makers, snow ball throwers, kids ski helmets) that folks are welcome to use, as long as the guests take care of them!

This is a non-smoking unit - no smoking of any type. Not 420 friendly. That includes cigars, blunts, Dabs, Shatter, ANYTHING!

PLEASE CONSIDER TRAVEL INSURANCE - We can not control the weather, roads, etc. We are not a large company that can write off expenses for no shows.

**** We support our US Military. In honor of our USAF parents, we are proud to give a 10% discount for ACTIVE DUTY and HONORABLY RETIRED military members, as well as documented Wounded Warriors (you know who you are... It is NOT ADA compliant - but if you can figure out how to get around the stairs, etc - we are more than honored to try to accomodate you). We will never take a knee. Thank you for keeping us safe, and for all of the sacrifices you and your family make, 24/7/365. Sheepdogs ont the thin blue line, or honorably retired Sheepdogs - you are eligible too (you know who you are). MUST BE NOTED PRIOR TO BOOKING IN ORDER TO ADJUST THE RATES ON VRBO****

About the host

Hosted by Kristin Knutson

Host profile image
Our parents bought this Unit when it was nothing but wooden stakes in the ground, in the early 70's. We became ski fanatics, and although we traveled up and down I-80 for many years, a couple of us ended up participating in competitive ski racing, and attending Truckee High School. Go Wolverines! We have scoured every inch of Northstar (and maybe drove Northstar Security bananas a time or two). Now us kids (who all have grey hair) are all grown up, and want to keep it in the family. However, we all have jobs and busy lives - so we don't get up as often as we would like. We thought we would try VRBO as a way to offset some of the costs. We know mom would want it to stay in the family. We also want other young families (or older) to have the same opportunity to build solid family connections and a lifetime of memories. A small cozy condo helps foster that togetherness. We hope you gain the memories and family bonds that were created when we were kids, and still go on when our families visit as well.

In memory of our parents, ask about a 10% discount for active duty and honorably retired US military, or documented wounded warriors (Hey - sorry - the unit is not super friendly to those who now have challenges - but if you can figure out how to get up stairs and deal with a non-ADA equipped unit - we would be honored and proud to have you). As well as those of you actively working the Thin Blue Line or honorably retired sheepdogs. MUST BE NOTED PRIOR TO COMPLETING BOOKING IN ORDER TO ADJUST THE VRBO RATES.

Why they chose this property

The location of this particular unit is paramount. It is right on the ski slope - so when there is snow, you click into your skiis and ski down to the lift. On the way home, slip in through the trees, and ski right up to the pathway 10 feet from the door! No trudging across parking lots or streets. No walking down paths, no nothing! Northstar maintains their snowpack impeccably as well as has the walkways shoveled by the time you wake up. You wont find better groomed snow anywhere. It is an upstairs unit... you don't have to hear the noise of the people above you all night. Additionally, this unit has a small balcony. The Unit still has a fireplace - real wood, with a little natural gas to help out if you are not a fire builder.

What makes this property unique

Ski in, ski out - no carrying your skis, gear, or your kids!
