The hotel and the grounds were nice great location. The room needed a few things to be fixed, the soaking tub did not hold water, bathroom door did not have a working lock, TV and DVD player in the living room did not function so evenings were spent piled up in one of the bedrooms to watch a movie.

We did a family, early visit. It was so beautiful. Staff was amazing, nice and the town was amazing and festive. Only thing that was slightly disappointing was the village. The stores closed early, and the bars were also closed except 2. As adults we looked forward to an evening on the town after a long day of boarding, jus for everything to close down at early hours for a Friday and Saturday. As far as the hotel. It was epic. And very nice, comfortable.

Love coming to Northstar! The facility is beautiful! The rooms are great. The communication is easy too. Of course we come during off season, so the downside is a lot of the shops and restaurants can be closed. Some of the pool areas were also closed. Truckee is so close though you have options there. Plus this hotels has activities that you can sign up for some are free and some you pay. I liked the theater option! The scenery around is just beautiful!
