Family weekend
Great kitchen. Set up was very nice. Great location. Carpets were disgustingly dirty. Several tiles inside downstairs hall were missing pieces. Drink splattered door. Broken glass on floor in kitchen. Cob webs everywhere. Heater vents were covered in dust. Fireplace didn’t work. New batteries were brought but still didn’t work. Surfaces were dusty

Were not able to use condo
We did not use property because Northstar resort unexpectedly closed the weekend before, with less than 2 weeks notice, so skiing and restaurants and facilities were mostly closed. We tried to get refund or credit for next year as soon as we learned of Northstar closing, but VRBO and Vacasa have so far refused to provide any accommodation. Unless VRBO or Vacasa give us some refund/credit for this issue, we will NOT be using them again, and let all of our contacts know how unaccommodating they are.

Pleasant, convenient property with a few issues
We had a pleasant stay at this property over a four-day weekend. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and common area were as described, and our kids enjoyed staying with their friends in the double bunk bed room. The property itself was a short walk away from the village parking lot - all of the kids managed it without issues. There was an initial snafu with the number of towels provided based on the number of guests Vacasa received, but this was rectified on our second day. We encountered two main issues that prevented a higher star rating. The first issue was that the hot water heater only provides enough hot water for ~4 showers. Since this property is clearly designed for 6-8 guests, this means that you'll probably have to wait ~2-3 hours between each set of showers to let the hot water heater catch up. The second issue was that the freezer didn't work. Its temperature felt similar to the refrigerator temperature, but both temperatures were suspect as a result. We lost a set of ice cream on our first night, and we were lucky that we didn't bring more perishable freezer items.

Not ski -in and out
We are a family of 4 ( kids 13 and 14) stayed at the condo during ski week. First off - place is listed at ski in and out. It takes walking in ski boots roughly 15 minutes up the hill 1500 feet. Shuttle comes but not often it take a while to wait. Ski back - while you can, it really is confusing and not safe. You have to remove ski at some point as ski back crosses a road ( asphalt). Condo is not far from the resort but it definitely not ski in and out. Now a few words about condo itself. On pictures it looks amazing. In the reality it looks very aged and dark. Downstairs where kids are - its cold! and super dark. Each room has one tiny light on the night stand. The room that has 4 bunks - my son of 13 barely fit in there. Closet is tiny and there is barely any space between then. I cannot imaging having a group of 4 there. Bathrooms are old and dates. Carpet is dark and brown and dated. There are lots of blanks and they are full of dust ( we ended up using our own that be brought). We tried to cook. Skillet - they have one TINY skillet that was big enough to make 2 eggs. I asked management for another one - and they told me that that's not what house provides. Their cutting board was tiny as well. I would say that this house was not set up for people to cook. I would classify this place as one of the most dated places I have stayed at. I would not stay in this again. This home needs upgrade and some serious cleaning ! dust is all over the place.

Good location
There were a few things that needed addressing but no response came to our queries. (Dead light bulbs, no parking passes, hot pads, cutting board…). We have always had responsive owners/managers in past VRBO rentals so I don’t know where the communication broke down.

Great stay, be prepared to open key lock on entry
Key lock was confusing to use and master lock was inaccessible. During winter, check-in when there is still daylight as it is harder to open the door when it is cold at night. Overall great stay.

Wonderful family vacation house
The house was very clean. It was close to Northstar village, just a short shuttle ride away which was very nice. The house is 3 stories with a lot of stairs which was difficult for my 1 year old but otherwise not a big deal. We had a great family vacation!!
