Lovely condo in the heart of northstar. Condo newly redone with nice finishes. Perfect for a long weekend with my husband and kids ages 7 and 11. Easy access to the village and gondola. A quick walk (4 minutes) to the rec center and hot tubs. Responsive management. We enjoyed it very much and hope to be back!

Thank you so much Melissa we are so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay. We hope you come back again soon!
This unit was exactly as advertised. Excellent location in Northstar Village, top floor corner unit, with high ceilings and great light. Very well-equipped kitchen for those looking to cook ‘at home’ versus dining out each night. Very clean and organized, with small touches to add to your stay. Highly recommend! GRA
