With my membership there is a $10 fee per person to enter. Or, you can shop, eat, ice skate, see a movie or experience the s'mores and fire pits waiting for you at Northstar Village.

Excellent location! Nice cabin for family stay!

We spent 5 nights with our kids and our friends at the property. It is a great location! We were enjoying short shuttle rides from and back to the village to snowboard with kids and skate after 4 pm. We spent a nice moment at Christmas! The owner was very attentive to our needs.

Great cabin for large group!

David’s cabin was perfect for our mini getaway for my boyfriend’s birthday for a large group! My bf and I arrived early Friday morning with the plan to snowboard at Northstar before the others arrived. David was great with letting us check in early so we could park at the cabin and utilize the free shuttle that took us to the village so we wouldn’t have to deal with the parking madness. It was perfect! The cabin was well equipped with everything we needed for our short stay, clean, and spacious for our slightly larger group. There’s a little slope on the side of the cabin that we used to sled and tube down. We all had a great time and the kids asked to live there (lol!). David was extremely responsive and helpful in answering all of our questions. We definitely want to come back!

Dated but spacious and great location

This house had enough space beyond what 3 families (6 adults, 4 kids) needed. We could have brought 2 more families and felt comfortable! It is also a fantastic location on the shuttle route to the Northstar village. The kids that didn't ski were able to sled and play around the property, which slopes down to a creek in the back (little ones should be supervised). There was enough to do that we didn't have a chance to use the community center, so I can't speak to that perk. These were the main selling points and they were as-advertised. The house is a bit dated on the inside, but all appliances and fixtures were functional, and everything was very clean. The kitchen had all the tools and utensils (and spices, too!) to feed a small army. There were also plentiful linens and towels. There was an issue with the electronic lock upon arrival. It was dead, but I wasn't sure if I just wasn't using it right. The host was responsive in providing an alternate means of entering the property, but it was a challenging delay after a long drive with kids in the car. The host collaborated with us to have the lock repaired during our visit and it all worked out. For the location, amount of space, and communicativeness of the host, we would definitely stay again.

Great Location, Cozy Cabin

The cabin was so nice and cozy and it had plenty of room for our entire group. It was also fully stocked with kitchen supplies and various spices. The location was excellent and the free shuttle service was perfect for going snowboarding at Northstar. The host was incredibly responsive and checked in to make sure everything was alright. I'd book here again! Highly recommend.

Great Property. Excellent Owners

The house was close to Northstar. Owners were easy to work with! Only some minor issues with the home (showers didn't function properly and one of the bunks were rickety) Other than that, it was a beautiful home and I would gladly stay there again.

Very comfortable with plenty of rooms

The house was well equipped to handle our group of 10, and could have handled a few more. Pretty much as described - a simple open plan living / kitchen / dining room with a master bedroom suite on the main level; and four bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs. Each bedroom featured a different forest animal in its art and decor! There's comfortable furniture throughout, supporting a relaxing stay.

Amazing experience from beginning to end

I wish I could give this 10 stars! We booked Davids house for my wife's birthday trip with some friends and family. From the very beginning David was incredibly nice and answered each of my questions right away. He also wanted to make sure we had an awesome experience so he made sure to make our stay as amazing as possible and we 100% did! He is the perfect host! The house was amazing and in a beautiful neighborhood. The rooms were perfect with plenty of beds and the beds were VERY comfortable. The house is fully stocked for everything that you need and the overall atmosphere gives-off the perfect vibes for a weekend in the snow! You can take the shuttle to Northstar and they will drop you off right at the resort and then bring you back to your doorstep. The yard was perfect for sledding and David has plenty of sleds in the closet for you to use. All of us agreed we are going to make this a yearly trip and plan to book this house every time.

mountain house

The house was great for our large family. Plenty of beds and a well stocked kitchen. Only problem in kitchen were the knives. We cook a lot and they were really useless. The family that lives in the area brought knives for us. I suggest a sharpener be in the house. The neighborhood is very quiet and there are some wonderful hiking trails with in walking distance. Short drive to the grocery store and the beach. A good time was had by all.

About the host

Hosted by David Mirassou

Host profile image
This home has been in our family for over 30 years and generations have enjoyed it! We live in San Jose and work in the wine industry. I am happy to be able to share our home with you and your family and friends. I cannot tell you how many people have told me the memories they have staying at our place. We like to head up for an active weekend or just relax and watch the sunset off the back deck with a nice glass of wine and some delicious cheese. I love to take a deep breath and smell the beautiful Pine Trees.

Why they chose this property

Our home has a timeless charm about it. When you walk into the door your stress is gone.

What makes this property unique

Great location for year round enjoyment in the Tahoe area. In the winter with snow the location is perfect for snow play and sledding! In the summer it is perfect to just hang out or enjoy all the local action, activities and sports. Northstar Free shuttle bus stops just out the front door and now there is an App for IPhone (search Northstar Transportation) to take you to the recreation center and to and from the village at Northstar. Everyone loves this!
