Tahoe Area Resort Living -
NorthStar-Truckee, CA

Sunny Northstar-at-Tahoe view home with multiple decks and spacious great room.
This beautifully situated Northstar-at-Tahoe vacation home base is a proudly-preserved 1990s Sierra chalet with expansive views. Admire distant Sierra peaks westward across Martis Valley from two of three large decks. Soaring ceilings and an abundance of
windows take full advantage of the spectacular location and breathtaking sunsets. Gather with friends and family in the sun-soaked open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area on the main upper level. The dining table seats ten and the breakfast bar seats two more. Meal prep is easy for groups in the well-stocked kitchen with two sinks, gas cooktop, new electric double oven and ample counter space. Extend your entertaining into the great room wet bar area with beverage fridge. The back deck offers a private retreat with peaceful garden and forest views. All three decks are outfitted seasonally with tables and seating. The primary bedroom opens off of the great room and features a sitting area, remote-controlled gas fireplace, plus a jetted tub in the ensuite bathroom.

On the lower entry level are three bedrooms including a teen-friendly bunk room with TV, games, and a covered deck. Access your streaming accounts and Spectrum cable television in the great room, primary bedroom and bunk room. Pair your bluetooth device with the great room soundbar. Bonus: the garage loft is equipped with a ping-pong table and plentiful storage space for your sports gear.

To do: in warmer weather, hiking and biking trails are right outside the door as is Northstar’s public golf course. Guests of this rental will have access (for a modest entry fee) to shared NPOA amenities just two miles away at the Recreation Center next to the Northstar California Resort and Village. Amenities include an arcade, play area, pools, jacuzzis, tennis, pickle ball, and basketball court, fitness room, and sauna. In the winter, hit the slopes at the Resort or enjoy ice-skating in the Village. Village dining, shopping and a convenience market are open year-round. Best of all, a free seasonally available door-to-door shuttle service
gets you to the Mountain, Golf Course, Recreation Center, Resort and Village.

More to do: take a short (8 mile) car ride to all that Lake Tahoe has to offer. Nearby Old Town Truckee (7.5 miles) is hopping with restaurants, bars, gift shops, and galleries. Grocery stores, sports equipment rentals, office services, and more are all available near
the Truckee Airport (5 miles) or in Central Truckee (9 miles).

Spacious, comfortable, private, beautiful views, convenient
The best location! Easy drive to Northstar, into Truckee as well as route 28 around the lake. There was so much to love about this gracious house. It has modern conveniences and good wifi signal strength. Views can be enjoyed from inside the main floor rooms & master bedroom (and even one of the downstairs bedrooms) as well as on the decks. Every room is spacious, comfortable, and well appointed. Heating, kitchen appliances, showers ... everything works well. I would choose this rental every time! Can't recommend highly enough

Wonderful place EXCEPT
Home and location are beautiful, except the owner’s REALLY have to upgrade the oven and washer/dryer. It took FOUR drying cycles to dry simple pillow cases. They have very nice TV’s, but an oven/washer/dryer that are VERY VERY old

Great place, poor service
We enjoyed the spacy house with the fantastic location. Shuttle takes you to Northstar and back. We had a few issues e.g. WiFi password provided was incorrect. We called and were told someone will come to resolve it. Unfortunately, nobody showed up and nobody contacted us how to resolve the matter. Nobody even followed up with us.

Mold in the house..
One of the bedrooms had mushrooms growing through the carpet. It was disgusting. We could not use that bedroom, so people had to sleep on the floor in another room. This home had a lot of potential but was dirty, and the mushrooms were disgusting. I normally don’t write a review, but this was really bad.

Family Ski Trip
We enjoyed our stay at Sleek Hill Haven. Definitely an older property, but fully functional and clean. In the winter, the only way in was through the garage, which had a large chunk of ice on it and no salt in the garage. We contacted Vacasa regarding this hazard, but they never came to address it. They did plow after the snow storm, which was helpful since the driveway was very steep. Overall a good property with great views!

Could use significant attention
The house was large and accommodated 3 small families well. The location can't be beat with incredible views and fun snow play around the house. The furniture was nice and comfortable. However, we were disappointed with the kitchen. The appliances are clearly original (built in 1990). The top oven was broken and the heating coil sparked. The outside grill was out of propane as well as the lighter mechanism not working. The cabinet door under the sink was broken and the door fell off each time the cabinet door was opened to get soap for the dishwasher. Make sure you bring all your own spices as there are none provide in the house. I don't think I have unrealistic expectations for vacation houses, but for the price of this home, I would expect them to provide salt, pepper and olive oil. Another disappointment was that the (numerous) stairs to the front door, and the driveway directly in front of the garage door were covered in thick sheets of slick ice. I understand that I am vacationing in the snow, and I would be fine with snow/ice if it were actually snowing, but it hadn't snowed in over 1 month. It was very treacherous every time we left the house. By the time we got there, the ice was so thick there was no way for us to break through it with a snow shovel. This place lacked attention or care.
