Awesome Location!
Our first 4th of July experience in Tahoe! Loved that the location took us away from the hustle and bustle of the holiday, yet we were able to enjoy Truckee, the river and North Shore within minutes. Not just a cozy ski home, but a cozy retreat all year round. House had everything we needed... beautiful, yet comfortable at the same time!

Terrific Cabin in NorthStar Neighborhood
Really great house - delighted that the bathrooms were all newly remodeled. The two bedrooms upstairs were extremely spacious while the two downstairs were standard size. The second floor loft was an added bonus but the first floor living space was large enough that we never ended up using the second floor loft living area. The house was also very well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, utensils, and basic cooking supplies. My only suggestion for improvement is to add a hot tub to the property - the backyard deck is certainly large enough that it can easily accommodate it without an issue and further enhance the guest experience. Location is minutes from NorthStar village and we were able easily to use the free transit shuttle to get back and forth without any issues.I highly recommend this property if you’re skiing NorthStar and want a great place to lodge nearby.

Great house great location
We had a great stay! The house is spacious, we had two toddlers and has all the amenities needed for a nice long weekend. Nice large deck that was covered in snow and a perfect play area for the kids. Shuttle was easy to use and super convenient. We would love to go back!

Wonderful Northstar Property
Our recent stay was so much fun! The property is close to Northstar Village and the ski lifts. The shuttles run by frequently and make it easy to come and go to to Northstar Village. The house is well appointed, with plenty of space, comfortable beds, and cozy gathering areas. The kitchen is the most well-stocked I have ever seen in a rental. There are all kinds of dishes, glasses, and cookware. It was a wonderful experience to stay at this home with my children and grandchildren.

Fantastic!!
Best cabin ever! Perfect for large groups or two families. Comfy beds and bedding. Even the towels and the toilet paper were great. Location was great. Everything was beyond expectations. Regrettably we had to give up the fabulous master bedroom to our grown son as my hubby is waiting for a new knee. Love the reading nook too!
