We loved staying in Jim and Karen's place. It's simple perfect location for skiers like our family of 4. I personally loved the kitchen - everything is well maintained and/or new (we made breakfasts and dinners there). Communication with Jim was timely, clear, and on point. He was super generous accommodating for late checkout (super nice not to have to rush out). Would stay again in a heartbeat. Thank you Jim and Karen!
The place was clean and taken care of and everything we needed was provided. The downstairs bed needs replaced, but other than that we loved the stay here.
This condo had just the right amount of space for our family of 4. We appreciated the easy access to the gondola and chair lift - we could have a lazy breakfast and still beat the crowds! We were close enough to the village to walk over for dinner and snacks, but far enough that we weren't annoyed by the loud music at night. Check-in/out instructions were very clear and Jim responded to all emails promptly. Thank you for a great stay at Northstar, we're already looking forward to our next trip!
Great property!!!! Location is amazing. Walked right down to village lift. Walked over to rec center. House is great to stay , cook and comfortable. View is beautiful!!!Owner Jim very easy to communicate with.Great stay !!!!
This property was perfect for our stay. We stayed for a baseball tournament and the layout was exactly what we needed. A queen bed and two twin pullouts were perfect for the family of four and the queen bed was for my child and myself. The kitchen was well equipped and the location was fantastic. It was a very short walk to the central part of the resort including shopping, restaurants, and a skating rink. The rec center and pools were a nice reprieve between games. Our hosts were friendly, helpful, and communicated well. Highly recommend this property.
This was a perfect place for our stay with my son and mother in law. There are two full bedrooms, one of which is upstairs and closes from the loft room which has two twin beds and is open to the staircase. The other bedroom is on the main level. Very convenient location just above the village with a nice path to walk there. Can clip in your skis by parking and ski a very short distance to village express and gondola. Unit was comfortable, as described, and as noted in a great location.
Also the owner was fantastic! Great communication and very accommodating. Would stay here again on another trip to Northstar. Thanks so much Jim!
I've stayed at several Northstar properties for ski trips for my family. The place was perfect for our family of 5. The unit was well stocked, clean, and ideally located. But the surprising standout feature was the hosts. They were accommodating and made sure we felt welcome. I would jump at the chance to stay here again. Great time for everyone.
We were so appreciative of the well stocked home, cleanliness, proximity to the slopes and village, and the extra touches. We would absolutely stay here again or other properties by this owner. Communication was outstanding and we had a wonderful time!
We were in town for a lacrosse tournament. The condo was conveniently located to both tournament locations and to the Northstar activities.
Well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds.
Jim was very helpful in providing a pdf of key info for check-in/out and general how-to for the condo before we arrived. He was flexible and allowed us to check-in early which was very helpful as we needed to be at a wedding rehearsal right after we arrived. The condo looked exactly like the pictures provided and it was an accurate listing. It was a great place with all your basic needs and the best location for accessing the village! This is not a luxury unit but perfect for those that need a cozy place to retreat to after a long day on the mountain. The unit is best for adults and older kids but not large groups. Highly recommend for active adults who don't need all the frills and who plan to be out doing activities most of the day. The weather was mild and we barely ran the heat and didn't need AC. We cooked breakfast each day so it was really nice to have the pots, pans, and dishwasher. Thanks Jim for a wonderful stay!
We stayed once again at this cozy, comfortable and convenient condo - steps away from the Gondola and the Village. This is our second stay and we look forward to future visits with our three kids - 14, 12 and 9. Thank you James & Karen!
The condo was perfect. We loved the space upstairs for the kids and the easy access to the slopes. Jim was very responsive to text. Thanks for a fun few days :)
My 2 daughters and I stayed at this condo March 2023 for spring break skiing. The condo was good, I rate it 4/5 stars. Great location., short downhill walk to lifts and ski village. The beds were comfy. Wish LR TV had Disney+. Nice having free laundry right outside front door, which we used to dry out wet ski gloves. Wish bathrooms had exhaust fans. WI-FI worked great.
Ski village was really cool. Recommend Rubicon highly. Pizza and spaghetti there was awesome and service was great. Note that everything except 2 restaurants plus grocery and ice cream place all closed around 5. That was surprising but not a huge deal.
First time at Northstar, and this location cannot be beat. We had some really bad weather during our stay and it was awesome to have access to a gaming station upstairs for my daughter. We also enjoyed playing with the Uno cards and other items to satisfy downtime around the condo. The owner was very communicative and we really appreciated that.
Our family has stayed in various Ski Trails condos about 40 times over the past 15+ years of skiing at Northstar. This unit is one of the best, in my opinion. It is roomy because it has the loft with the additional bedroom and bathroom upstairs. Most importantly, it has been renovated so the kitchen, bathrooms, and place overally is great. The furniture is also fairly new so the beds felt clean and comfortable and we loved the reclining sectional. The communication with the owners was easy and they were prompt to respond when we had a question. They left a welcome note, some snacks, and handwarmers for us which was very thoughtful. The location of the condo is also great for skiing in and out. We really enjoyed the stay.
