About this property

Northstar Mountain Retreat - Private Hot Tub, Chef's Kitchen, HOA Access, Near Golf and Biking

  • Welcome to Northstar Mountain Retreat!

    This bright and spacious home is perfect for two families traveling together with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a private hot tub, and a two-car garage. Enter the home through the garage or via the covered front steps and stone foyer. What we love most about this property is the bright, open great room with floor-to-ceiling windows and views of Martis Valley, as well as the separate hangout space for the kids. In winter, enjoy the Northstar shuttle route for easy lift access (and no parking hassle!). In the summer, enjoy being a mile from world-class mountain biking and within walking distance of valley trails and golf. Cozy up by the three fireplaces and enjoy a movie, play a game, or take a soak in the private hot tub after an active day out in the Sierras. Your stay includes guest access to the Northstar Recreation Amenities, including the clubhouse with a gym, heated pool, multiple spas, tennis, pickleball, and a game room, at a cost of $10 per person per day. This home is family-friendly and suitable for 1-2 families or 3 couples to share.

Family Tahoe Trip

We visit Tahoe often with some or all of the family. This last stay was exceptional, as the house layout, amenities and comfort helped us all enjoy our stay that much more. The property management team was awesome in making our check in and stay effortless and carefree and were accommodating to all of our needs. We will be back.

We had a wonderful stay here this weekend -- this was the perfect space for our group of two families (four adults and four kids). The house is well-appointed and even nicer than pictured. We enjoyed the hot tub, the hiking trails right off property, the Northstar amenities, and the beautiful patio. Thanks for a fantastic stay and we'd love to return!

The house is beautiful and well appointed. Lots of space for everyone including a large kitchen. The only comments were about the three steep steps into the kitchen with no handrail to help us older folks. The driveway is a challenge but we managed! Wonderful stay.
