About this property
Northstar Ski-In/Ski-Out Renovated 2BR, Lake Tahoe - Walk to Village
Enjoy true ski-in/ski-out at Northstar, where the Coyote Fork run passes right by our door when snow conditions allow. Start your morning with a few laps, come back for lunch at your own table, and finish the day by the gas fireplace with tree-top views.
Our recently remodeled 957-square-foot, 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo sleeps 6 in four beds and sits quietly between the slopes and Northstar Village. Two queen beds, a twin bunk bed, and two bathrooms, including a tub and shower combination, make the layout especially useful for families. In summer and fall, hiking, biking, golf, swimming, and Lake Tahoe day trips are all close by.
⭐ HIGHLIGHTS ▪ Ski-in/ski-out on Coyote Fork, a blue run leading to the Highlands Gondola, when snow conditions allow. ▪ The green Condo Run is about a two-minute walk across the parking lot and feeds the Village Express lift and Big Springs Express Gondola. ▪ Northstar Village is a short walk away, or take the free Northstar shuttle from the condo parking lot. ▪ Verified 420 Mbps WiFi and a dedicated workspace with a monitor and HP AirPrint printer/scanner. ▪ Gas fireplace, Sonos speakers, three streaming TVs, more than 50 DVDs, and a large selection of board games. ▪ Two bathrooms: a tub and shower combination downstairs, and a rain shower ensuite to the upstairs bedroom.
⭐ WINTER AT NORTHSTAR Northstar is especially well suited to families, with ski and snowboard schools and plenty of gentler terrain. A ski locker on the ground floor of the building keeps skis, boards, and wet boots out of the condo.
Northstar Village is a short walk away, with an outdoor ice rink, fire pits, restaurants, and complimentary s'mores at 4 p.m. You can also ride the Highlands Gondola up to The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe for dining or spa services.
⭐ SUMMER AND FALL Northstar offers much more than skiing. The Northstar Bike Park provides lift-served downhill mountain biking on the same lifts used during ski season, with rentals and lessons available in the Village. Hiking and cross-country trails begin at the door, and the Northstar golf course is nearby.
Kings Beach and the North Shore of Lake Tahoe are about 15 minutes away for swimming, boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding. Donner Lake is about 20 minutes away and offers another option for swimming and paddling. Sand Harbor is about 35 minutes away.
Historic downtown Truckee and Commercial Row are about 15 minutes away, with restaurants, bars, and shops. Optional access to the Northstar Property Owners Association Recreation Center provides additional swimming, tennis, and fitness facilities.
⭐ BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS Downstairs bedroom: Queen Leesa Hybrid mattress, white linens, a 43-inch 4K HDR TV, and a Levoit HEPA air filter. The TV supports AirPlay, Chromecast, and built-in streaming apps.
Downstairs bathroom: A combination tub and shower. This is the condo's only bathtub, which can be especially useful for families with young children.
Upstairs bedroom: Sleeps four with a queen Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid mattress and a twin bunk bed. It also has a 1080p TV with AirPlay and Chromecast, a 52-inch Modern Forms ceiling fan, and a Dyson HEPA air filter.

About the host
Hosted by Eric & Emile
We're a family based in Bellevue, Washington. Our love of travel has taken us all over the world, but our two favorite places are Lake Tahoe and Bend, Oregon.
After years of renting, we finally have our very own vacation homes in the places we feel offer the best of each of these locations. Northstar California Resort is our favorite all-season family-friendly destination in Tahoe, and our ski-in/ski-out condo is located at the heart of the resort. Caldera Springs Resort is the best family-friendly luxury resort base to explore Bend and all of the amazing adventures in Central Oregon.
We have seen our fair share of hotels and Airbnbs, and we can't wait to meet fellow travelers and give them the same great hospitality that we have been shown across the globe.
Why they chose this property
We have been driving to ski at Lake Tahoe for years. It's always been worth the trip, but eventually we starting having a larger family and realized that we needed a place for the kids to recharge during the day. This condo was absolutely perfect for what we needed. It's make it easy to get on the slopes in the morning and return for lunch. We also realized there's much more to Tahoe than the snow, and this has been a great base for exploring the best of Tahoe all year round.
What makes this property unique
Ski-in/Ski-out when conditions permit immediately off Coyote Fork run. Easy walk to Condo & Village run located at other side of parking lot. During summer, this is also a prime location for mountain biking at Northstar. Easy driving access to Truckee and Lake Tahoe.
