It was a large place. Communication was difficult and minimal, I had to ask for the address the morning of, about how to access pool and check out process. Seems like all info could have been shared proactively. Only one burner worked correctly, bathtub didn’t work, it was VERY dusty.

We had an excellent three night stay. The location was excellent and the unit was perfect. Close to everything and easy ski in and out close to the main Highlands condola. The unit looked over the center of the ice rink with everything near by. Saeed, was always available via text and provided excellent support. Thank you again for a great stay, we will look for more opportunities in the future

We have stayed in this condo several times over the last few years and its biggest assets are the view and location. It overlooks the ice skating rink in the Village with a great view of the mountains. Our only complaint is the unit needs a deep cleaning and a few repairs, once those are complete I’d give it a 5 star rating.

Great family spot

Property is clean and has basic necessities. Overlooking the village with a great view. Each room has its own bathroom and that was the cherry on top with 7 family members staying together. Overall it was a great trip ! 15 min from kings beach and 15 min from downtown truckee. Perfect location!

Ski in/out

Great place to stay if you want to stay in the village. Check in was super easy, parking was ten feet from the elevator (which opens directly into the room) and plenty of space for 3 adults and 3 kids.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Feb 2026
Our cleaning crew which is husband/wife duo had a medical emergency the day of the cleaning in which she was hospitalized for a couple days. We had the condo cleaned as soon as we were notified. Guests were able to get into the unit a couple hours after our normal check in time. I partially refunded the night and messaged them throughout the process. Guest upset because we would not refund the full night.

Perfect

We loved staying here, a lot more spacious than we expected. The home was well stocked with condiments, pillows, blankets, towels. Property manager was extremely kind and let us check out late. The amenities on site you can’t beat - always something going on. Restaurants are all delicious.

Great location overlooking ice skating rink

Check in was smooth, the elevator opens directly into the place. It was very clean and updated. First time doing ski in ski out and didn't realize how invaluable it is. Bringing my kids back during a break and then going right back up was a great experience. Will definitely be staying again

Tahoe/Truckee/Northstar

This property is beautiful, as advertised - great size for our family. Beds were amazing and comfy. The smoke alarm was a little touchy and went off every time we opened the oven, but other that that it couldn't have been more perfect. We would love to come back and stay again. Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Nice place… needs a few minor maintenance items.

There place and location were great! Perfect for a week at Northstar with family and friends. We’d book again… super convenience and comfortable. Our only suggestion is that they need some wine glasses and the microwave didn’t seem to work. Otherwise, all was terrific!
