It’s reassuring to know everything went smoothly throughout your stay, and we truly appreciate you choosing our home. - Your Tahoe Signature Properties Team
This is an immaculate unit within the Northstar community. We felt completely at home! The kitchen was well-stocked and the property was decorated beautifully. Our family enjoyed walking the neighborhood each day, exploring the village amenities (we loved Rubicon Pizza!) and swimming at the recc center. My husband loved having access to the gym. The drive into Truckee or King’s Beach is about 10-15 minutes either direction. This is the perfect location! The host was fantastic, checking in and genuinely delightful to work with. I highly recommend this unit for your next stay in the Truckee/Tahoe area!

Great condo in Northstar. Guest access to the pool, quick drive to the lake. Balcony view into the trees was awesome.
