Recent NorthStar-Truckee guest reviews

This was a small and cozy property to stay at, with the hot tub conveniently located right outside the back sliding door on the deck. The kitchen is small but was well stocked. Shuttle access to Northstar is always a plus, and there was plenty of parking on the driveway for 3 cars and 1 medium car in the garage with a NEMA 14-50 EV charging outlet. Note that you'll have to bring your own charger. Overall, great value for a small group!
Dabert C. | Jan 2026
Great location, shuttle to Northstar Village is convenient. Plenty of space for sleeping, not as much space in the living room & kitchen. TV is small and in a corner, providing poor viewing angles. Totally serviceable for a ski trip! Feels like nothing has been updated since the 70's

Comfortable, well maintained 3 bedroom condo with fireplace.
