The condo community provides a rec center that will give you access to the pool, hot tub, tennis, video game arcade, BBQ sites, and a playground. The central living area includes a sofa, flat-screen TV, gas-burning stove, and dining table; it is separated from the kitchen by a breakfast bar that has additional chairs for sharing a casual meal or a glass of wine. There is a master bedroom downstairs, with a timber-framed queen bed, a large closet, and lots of natural wood trim; there is also a sleeping area in the loft, which is accessible by ladder and looks out onto the living area.

The loft sleeping area is accessed by a ladder and open to the living space below without any wall or railing. This area is not well suited for small children and any minors using this area should be supervised by an adult.

Due to COVID 19, the HOA facilities may remain closed.

Due to COVID, there are changes in ski resort availabilities. Please make sure to check the ski resorts’ policies on reservations and tickets if you plan on hitting the slopes. We cannot provide refunds based on reservation inabilities at the ski resorts.

Please note that this home can accommodate up to 2 pets, with an additional Pet Fee of $35 per day. This fee is not included in your final booking price. If you are bringing pets, please contact our Customer Care Team after booking to pay the pet fee.

Classic Ski Condo

Location, location, location! Right on the slopes, yards away from the gondola. Basic ski condo. Be sure you are aware that the loft is accessed by a straight up ladder. One of my kids opted to sleep on the couch downstairs rather than climb the ladder.

Good location, cozy

The location is the best part about this condo. It’s the closest building on Ski View to the Big Springs gondola and right next to village run so a true ski in and ski out. There’s an easy path to walk down to the restaurants in the village. About the condo amenities: it’s an older, not renovated unit, so it’s what you’d expect - functional. All the appliances work. The dishwasher is loud. The shower water pressure is good. The kitchen pots and pans are pretty good (except the nonstick pan needs to be replaced IMO), but bring your own oil, salt, pepper etc if you plan to cook. The upstairs loft is quite spacious. It is a very tall ladder to get up there, so kids younger than 5 would need to be supervised climbing up and down. There were 3 sleds and 2 inner tubes - awesome for the kids to enjoy on the small slope right outside the condo. Things that would’ve made this rental even better: Because the washer/dryer is not inside the unit, it would be nice to have a laundry basket to use to take your clothes to the laundry room. Dressers in both rooms would be nice so we don’t have to live out of our bags if we’re there for more than a few days.

Just as advertised

This is a great place to stay. A true ski in/ski out. This is our second time staying at the place. Fyi, there is a ladder that is going up to the loft and not stairs. If you are uncomfortable going up ladders, I would't recommend this place. The bedroom is on the floor though. Overall, this is a great place to stay at

Northstar stay

This property is super convenient location right on the mountain. We enjoyed the location the most. The major issues for us were on the listing here the property said we could have 2 vehicles, and one pass was provided. We had two cars for our party staying there. I reached out to the phone numbers and emails listed, but I was told multiple times the local property manager would be in touch, but never has any response from them whatsoever. I did follow up with more than one phone call attempt, but never got a response from the local management team. In addition to the no communication, the condo is in much need of a deep clean. There was thick layers of dust everywhere. With a fireplace that we couldn't get to work with what was provided and would have asked the property manages about, but couldn't due to lack of communication. We will probably stay at someone else's unit in this area that is not with Grand Welcome property management group in the future.

Great Location but make sure you understand extra charges

This was a wonderful place to stay. It's a bit rustic and some of you will need to climb a ladder to get in & out of bed. But well worth it as you are 85 steps from the door to the ski run to the gondola. However, check out the extra cost as they doubled our rate for a 4 night stay. Hard to understand the cost to clean a ~800sqft condo.

Great value at the ideal Northstar Village location.

Beautiful property at the best location by the Village at Northstar. You get all you could possibly need at a great value. The property is comfy, clean, quiet, and just a few steps from the Village. It has membership to the Northstar Property Owner's Association club with fantastic swimming pools, gym, kid's activities, etc. (a small, guest fee $ per person is customary). Management/owner communication was impeccable! We had a wonderful time during our stay and will definitely look to book this property again.

Easy access to Northstar Village and slopes

We have rented many of the ski in/ski out condos at Northstar and always enjoy the experience and ease of access to everything. I didn't fully appreciate the accuracy of the access to loft bedroom being by ladder until I saw it... a great space up top but not likely something you'll want to be descending in the middle of the night to use the bathroom! Great place, very comfortable (and a treat to have the heat on and the music playing when we walked in after a COLD day of skiing!). Thank you.

Great location. Unresponsive property management

The condo location is impeccable, within walking distance from gondola and village run. The poor quality of property management became obvious when the weather is not cooperative. There wasn’t enough snow for the ski resort to open so we decided to check out the rec center. However, the front desk told me that the access key card is out-dated and VRBO renters actually aren’t allowed to used the facility without paying for day-use. In addition to that, I communicated to property management that we weren’t able to turn on the fireplace because the key to turn on the gas does not fit. The property manager only got back to me saying they already relayed the message to on-site management, which I never met during the stay. Without the fireplace, the heater turned on every 30-40 min, which is super loud for anyone slept in the loft. One other small thing to complain is the cleaning. I can smell dog pee around the TV area but I guess it’s something unavoidable if you are renting a place that allows pet. In summary, the location is hard to beat if the resort is open for business but you may not have those nice little things that the listing claims to provide.
