A top stay at Northstar! One of the best units we've stayed in-well organized & stocked with everything we could need, very comfortable beds, charming decor, comfortable & cozy. Communication with the owner was excellent, very easy check out process. Close distance to the shuttle stop. Overall excellent experience!
We enjoyed our week at this nicely renovated Gold Bend condo. The condo was comfortable, well-stocked with everything we needed and close to Northstar village. It also had easy access to parking, which is a plus in Gold Bend! We would stay here again next time we're in north Tahoe.
We were very comfortable in the condo and it was well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, and condiments. Bedrooms are nicely arranged and beds comfortable.
Thanks for sharing your home with us!
Regards,
Sandra
This place is exactly as advertised! Jenny and Ardy have done a wonderful job decorating and outfitting the condo. Their amenities are wonderful. Their standards for use are high also-they have very detailed instructions which make it easy to enjoy the unit while keeping it looking great for the next visitors. Seamless check-in/check-out. We would definitely rent again!
We enjoyed staying at the condo ! Host is very responsive, check in was very easy and smooth! Great condo ! Very clean and cozy! Has everything for comfortable get away ! Very lovely feels like home ! Convenient location and access.
Highly recommended !
We were looking to getaway for the week and had stumble upon this condo. This condo is beautiful and had everything we needed for our getaway. Clean, stylish, comfortable and modern. There were snacks available and all sorts of coffees for your liking. There was an extra foldaway bed which was really nice because we didn't have to worry about sharing. The host responded quickly to my messages. The downside was making reservations for the pool instead of being able to go when we pleased but it wasn't a deal breaker. The host even thought about your four legged friends; water bowl, pee pads and a bed. Golf course nearby if your a golfer. Along with many nearby hiking trails. Would definitely stay here again.
This house is in an amazing location. Access to shuttle is very easy and it is a super quick ride to Northstar. Ardy is an amazing host and was very responsive to all of our questions and keeps the house well stocked. Check-out and check-in was super simple. A couple notes for families staying: There is a sledding hill behind the house and a couple sleds to use on property, but because of the high snow covering the walkway we unfortunately could not easily access the hill. The pool and hot tub facility is very nice - 3 large hot tubs and a well heated pool (and you can BYOB!). However, it is on Northstar property and was a little difficult to find. They have parking specifically for the rec center (not sure if they charge for it?) right next to where you park to ski. We decided to go directly after skiing and shuttle home so did not park. During peak times (beginning or end of day) the shuttle would not drop us off or pick up directly at the rec center due to high traffic, so we had to walk from transit stop through village to get there (a short walk, but again difficult to find the first time). They also raised their visitor rates to $10 per person & charged $2 per towel, so a little pricey for our short 30-minute stay in the hot tub. Overall, great and convenient property. Would definitely stay here again!
Clean and very well kept condo. The hosts checked up on us several times during our stay and addressed any issues right away. The access to the pool clubhouse during the summer is a big plus.
We have stayed in several different vacation properties over the years, and so far this is our favorite! The property is beautifully renovated, with many thoughtful touches. The owners are responsive and helpful. And the location is fantastic!
The hosts have thought of every detail to truly host you at this property. I could not have been more impressed. Shuttle to the lifts was convenient, easy loading and unloading with parking right out front, we even found quick access to hiking trails for Fido to get his exercise. Highly recommend these hosts and this location.
Hosts were great. Very well appointed accommodation. Comfortable. Convenient. Clean and modern. I will be back! Dogs loved it as there is a nice hike out back to romp in the snow and look for squirrels! Amenities above and beyond expectations. Thanks Ardy !!!
We had a very nice time at this well kept property.
Well stocked with coffee, espresso, etc
Great tea pot for loose leaf tea
Communal hot tubs were closed due to covid, so was ice skating at Northstar Village
Great skiing during our trip
Very nice condo, stylish, cozy, and comfortable. It was the perfect amount of space for our family of 4, nice separation of space with 2 bedrooms on the lower level, master bedroom on top and the living area in between. The beds were very comfortable and the unit was quiet, we all slept well. Unexpected, thoughtful touches like coffee/espresso pods, milk frothers, a few drinks, snacks, and even slippers were a definite bonus! Great location for getting out on the slopes with the shuttle so close by.
The kitchen is nice but a little limited if you want to do much cooking. There's a nice cooktop but no oven, only a countertop toaster oven. The pans and utensils are pretty basic and they only plastic wine & water glasses. May want to bring your own if you want to make sure you have what you need.
The living area is very cozy with the fireplace, big couch and nice large screen TV for movie watching. Enjoy!
Anything you need for a perfect vacation. The condo was beautiful and spotless clean. We loved the complimentary snacks and drinks. Highly recommended. Owner was availably for any question. Thank you so much !
Great experience all around, nice place with all amenities comfortable and cozy
Close to Northstar Village and the slopes
We will definitely rent again!
