Lovely unit and beautiful location. Wish we had more time to spend in the area.

This was the perfect place for us to stay. Our first time visiting Tahoe and we are glad we chose to stay here in Northstar. The condo had all the amenities we needed to relax, make our own meals and Lake Tahoe was a short 15-20 minute drive. My children want to return to stay at the condo in the winter to fully experience what Northstar has to offer.

Very convenient place for me and my teenage son for skiing at Northstar. A short 5 min walk to the village or ski right onto the Gondola. Really appreciate the kitchen which had 2 coffee makers (and coffee grounds), even basics like oil, salt and pepper. The only small nit is the laundry room’s laundry washer and dryer are operable but could use an update.

The condo was perfect for our family of four. The pullout cpuch was very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. Location to Northstar amd the village is hard to beat. Also loved access to the storage cabinet for skis. Thanks for a wondeful weekend!

First off, this was a great place, and I would recommend it to anyone. That being said, three annoying details:
If you’re anything like me, you look at the rating, the pictures and the price and make a decision. I brought a bunch of stuff to grill because there was a picture of a barbecue on the patio and when I got there no barbecue. Looking at the fine print they’re not allowed to have barbecues anymore but the picture was still there, so it was a little frustrating.
Second, two outlets didn’t have power so I checked the breakers and couldn’t sort it out. I messaged through VRBO and Natural Retreats said they would contact staff, but nobody showed up between Wednesday when I messaged them and Saturday when we left, so I had to relocate the microwave and coffee maker out of their cabinets to other outlets. No follow up following the initial “thank you for your feedback” messaging.
Third, I booked through VRBO, but had to navigate to the Natural Retreats website to get info. It seems like if you post and are taking bookings through VRBO, then all pertinent information should be on the Vrbo app, instead of having to go to an entirely different website and dashboard to get information.
Again, minor stuff, but annoying.
Still, book this place. It was a great landing spot for me and my boys.

Very nice, comfortable small condo. Kitchen is well equipped with extras from Natural Retreat like small soaps, olive oil, laundry pods. Best for two people. We are older so taking our things up the stairway and then another stairway to the door was a challenge. We did it and family nearby helped with a cooler. Sleep temperature was nice with windows open at night. Very quiet location.

We loved this rental! The condo was so cozy and had everything we needed. You can walk to NorthStar Village and it was very safe. My son loved the basketball court during our down time. We hope to rent again

Not for seniors or those with mobility issues
We generally had a good stay at the Ski View. However, it is not really suited for seniors or those with mobility issues. The location is a little far from the parking lot to condo, plus too many steps up and down. The bathtub was too high getting in and out of for my 90 yr old dad. Those were the main things for him. The refrigerator went out during our stay and ruined some food. Lights are dim in the kitchen, so hard to see. There is no AC, but it does cool off at night. Good = condo was nice and clean and well stocked with everything you need. Customer service reps were nice when refrigerator went out, just couldn't do anything about it since it was the weekend.

Great location for hitting the Northstar slopes
We squeezed in one last vacation trip up from the Bay to take more snowboarding lessons for the kids at Northstar. We come multiple times a year. While the location is not literally ski_in ski_out, it is walk across one parking lot road and ski down to the gondola close--or you walk there in 7 minutes on a path that takes you to the restaurants and ice skating rink center. Super close to the action. The apartment was the most fully stocked home we've ever stayed in - extra sheets, blankets, completely full kitchen with all kinds of cooking gadgets, and a very convenient ski locker on the way to the door for wet gear. Check-in with the provided digital information was super easy and wi-fi and other gadget operation was the most clearly explained I've ever seen-signs all over the house. Really great. Also quiet (though that could have been the season).

We enjoyed this property
It was such a delightful surprise to have everything work with ease. Ie: tv, heater, fireplace, kitchen, etc. It was very well organized. It would be nice to have more paper products and larger bottles of shampoo etc.

Beautiful Condo
My wife and I enjoyed the condo and the amenities it provided. We unfortunately had to cut our trip short due to the hazardous smoke in the air so we only stayed one night instead of 4. But that was no fault of the condo. It was very comfortable.

Overpriced, tiny, hidden fees
We took our family up to North Star over July 4th weekend and needed two condos one of which was this location. Unfortunately this one was smaller with a much higher daily rate and additional mgmt fees. Although we went directly to the vRBO site, an additional charge from a second mgmt company was added. This was not clearly articulated on the Vrbo site. Upon arrival though, you could smell cat urine/ litter box in the condo which did not go away. The place needs an update. The bathroom is tiny and the shower head is so low in the shower that we had to take baths. It was July 4 th weekend and we definitely got gauged with fees abd surcharges- the condo size is tiny for 4 people—- not enough room for 4 adults as advertised. Place needs all new caroet. Fortunately we spent all our time in the great outdoors and only slept here. Owners should update and revisit pricing

Nice long weekend
The condo was as described. Everything worked fine. The place was clean and convenient. We did not have directions for the community pool area as I believe it had recently opened but the property mgmt. replied to my email promptly.

Perfect Ski-In/Out Condo at Northstar
Awesome location right off Condo/Village Run that made skiing with you kids convenient particularly during COVID. Easy access to bathrooms and a nice lunch break off the slopes. Well stocked kitchen with coffee grinder and maker, meat thermometer, and Tupperware to store food. One small nitpick is the lack of storage space or dresser which makes it difficult to organize clothes and ski stuff during an extended stay. Can’t wait to come back!!!

Perfect for our stay
This cozy condo met our needs perfectly. We wanted a place that had an outdoor entrance (no lobby or elevator) and that was professionally managed since cleanliness was also top of mind. It was spotlessly clean and nicely equipped. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dishes which made cooking meals easy and enjoyable. The bed was comfy and the linens were good quality which we appreciated. Check in was contactless, and communication with the property manager was prompt and proactive. My only suggestion would be to make more open space in the bedroom closet and drawers so that unpacking and storing items is easier for a longer stay. All in all, a good experience!
