Comfortable, close to everything, and very inviting, this charming condo is ideal for an exciting family ski-cation in winter or a quiet and peaceful summertime escape. Featuring soaring ceilings, cozy living spaces, and updated appliances, you will have everything you need here regardless of the season. Prepare full-course meals in the well-equipped galley kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances, dine together at the adjacent table for six, or kick back and relax by the fireplace while you watch a favorite TV show or movie in the living area. This home also features a furnished deck offering forest views.

Located seven miles southeast of downtown Truckee, Northstar offers year-round attractions with premier skiing and snowboarding in the winter, as well as hiking, biking, golf, and a scenic gondola during the summer months. At this charming hideaway, you'll enjoy easy access to the slopes as well as access to the Northstar recreation center amenities, which include tennis courts, basketball courts, a fitness center, a sauna, a hot tub, a seasonal lap pool, and an open grill area next to a beautiful creek surrounded by pine, fir, and aspen trees. (Site rentals include the use of three picnic tables and up to two gas BBQ grills with grilling utensils.) There is a $10 daily fee per person for use of the facilities.

I liked our stay, the cabin was clean and neat. It was easy to find and location was close to the skiing resort. but the door knob was difficult to open using the key, some of the chairs were loose because some parts were missing. Finally, I read in the comments that you already provided basic coffee machine (not capsules one)for some guests but it when I asked for one, it wasn’t available.

I would be happy to stay here again. It looks exactly like the pictures and was clean and in good condition. The fireplace was great for cozy evenings. The unit isn't too far from the parking lot, and it's walkable to Northstar village with your gear (about a 10 min walk up the paved path). Note that the coffee maker is a Keurig so you'll have to bring your own K-cups.

The silver strike condo was vastly improved from my last stay. New flooring and furniture, plus a new massive smart TV in the living room. Can't wait to come back.

The condo provided a close space to Village and lifts. Rental was clean and basic, but could use a couple of repairs to light fixtures and refrigerator handle. Was disappointed to find that the "coffee maker" was a Keurig, as we brought filters and grounds for a coffer maker. It would be helpful to distinguish what kind of coffee maker is available, so that renters know whether to bring filters/grounds or pods.

Let me start by saying the condo at Northstar, CA was clean and comfortable, and the location is excellent. However, my experience overall was below average for several reasons, which are listed below: 1. The check-in process was a disaster. The property uses an e-lock and the e-lock had no power as the battery was dead. I could not input the numerical code to enter the property. When I called the support number, the agent I spoke with said she would contact the local support person to have them come to the property and would open a repair ticket - I was given no information on how to contact this person or when they would arrive. It was nearly dark at that point and very cold, and I was starting to get concerned about where I would spend the night. When the local property manager arrived, he did change out the battery in the e-lock and reprogrammed it so that I could use it during the rest of the stay. Ensuring that the e-lock has power and is operational is a mandatory check-off item before renting a property to a new tenant. 2. The washing machine did not work. It has a small trickle of water when a wash cycle was started and did not drain properly, leaving the laundry sitting in a tub of water. I let Vacasa know about this but nothing happened. 3. The dishwasher was operational, however it was no longer attached to the counter frame and rocked forward when the door opened. This could create a catastrophic failure and water leak if it tears free during a cycle. I didn't use it during the stay as I didn't want to responsible for any potential water damage. 4. There was only one parking pass in the house that I could find that was used by the previous tenant. I wrote over the dates with mine, but there were supposed to be two new passes. There were also supposed to be passes to use the Northstar club amenities, like the exercise area, hot tub, etc., but I could not find them. I sent an email to the customer service email address, [email protected]. I received a form response along the lines of "we're sorry for any inconvenience and have reported it to our local maintenance people, please let us know if there is anything else we can do. I never got a response from any local maintenance people, or anyone from the company save for the form email response. I am extremely disappointed in the poor check-in process, the lack of any sort of checklist to ensure that all the features that the property supposedly comes with actually work, and the lack of any specific followup to the issues that I listed. Going forward, Vacasa will be my last option for home rentals. We have rented two properties from Vacasa in the past, and both experiences were excellent. This one was not. My goodwill
