The property owner provided no instructions on how to check in, wifi etc. the elevator broke for 48 hours and the owner provided no Keys/access to the property when the elevator was down. I paid thousands for a unit with no key access? I had to track down management on site and they had no extra keys to provide either. I would NOT stay here again.

We loved staying here, a lot more spacious than we expected. The home was well stocked with condiments, pillows, blankets, towels. Property manager was extremely kind and let us check out late. The amenities on site you can’t beat - always something going on. Restaurants are all delicious.

Great place to visit with family
What a welcoming place. We were in town for a family wedding. From the moment we stepped off the elevator straight into the condo, we enjoyed our stay. Plenty of space to spread out, extremely well appointed kitchen with everything you need to host a family dinner and cooling AC to escape the summer heat Nice deck overlooks the rink, rec center access with lots of activities and great underground parking It’s also very easy for an elder relative with rollator to get around I look forward to planning another stay here

Great family spot in Northstar
We had never stayed at the Northstar Village before and the whole resort felt very swanky and fun! The unit was beautiful with a fun cabin vibe and the location was so convenient with a great view of the skating rink. The rooms and living area were good sized and each room had an en-suite. We really enjoyed the resort amenities (gym, pool, etc.). The check in process was a bit confusing in that there are 4 possible places to check in, we found it on the third try. The unit was mostly clean, but the third bedroom had sheets that smelled like body odor and the bunk beds had broken steps. We also nearly ran out of toilet paper. Communication with the owner was delayed, but they were super accommodating and let us check out early. All in all we would definitely stay there again.

Nice place… needs a few minor maintenance items.
There place and location were great! Perfect for a week at Northstar with family and friends. We’d book again… super convenience and comfortable. Our only suggestion is that they need some wine glasses and the microwave didn’t seem to work. Otherwise, all was terrific!

Perfect family ski lodging
Wonderful location overlooking the Northstar ice rink. Ski storage locker on the first floor is great for keeping your equipment. Two minute walk to the lifts. Also very nice underground parking with easy access to the elevator that goes directly into your room - no trudging down the hallway with all your gear. Unit is in good condition for a ski village - a few dings but nothing major. Nice kitchen appliances, the gas oven worked perfectly. Well stocked kitchen for all of our cooking and a convenient mini grocery store just a 2 minute walk away for getting supplies. Hard to imagine a much better spot for a family ski trip!

Great location, not the cleanest
We stayed here in March 2023. PROS: - Location is amazing. Great access from garage parking with the elevator opening right into the unit. - Great balcony that overlooks the skating rink and didn’t find it noisy - Plenty of room for 3 adults and 3 kids and can fit more CONS: - As some of the prior reviews mentioned, the place was not clean…and I mean not CLEANED. Our boys found a beer can in the bunk bed!? - None of the beds were clean or sheets changed - Towels from prior guest were still on the floor - Crumbs all over the counter and table - Garbage was not emptied - Dirty dishes in dishwasher - We ended up starting a load of towels and stripped the kids beds ourselves to wash the sheets so we could get them settled. We also started the dishwasher to get some clean plates. Not a great first few hours. - Also previously mentioned, there were no wine glasses, but I guess that’s a minor issue compared to the sheets/towel situation I contacted the owner and he sent over the cleaners, although we waited 1.5hrs for them to get there. We then sat at the dirty table for another 2hrs, while the cleaners cleaned the unit. Cleaners were great, but the whole situation was not. Epic snow conditions made up for it though!

Great place to stay if you want to stay in the village. Check in was super easy, parking was ten feet from the elevator (which opens directly into the room) and plenty of space for 3 adults and 3 kids.

Convenient location
Extremely convenient ski in/ski out location in Northstar village with an amazing view of the ice skating rink! The condo itself is rather spacious and actually nicer than listing photos, however, there are LOTS of repairs needing to be done and desperately needs a deep cleaning, or even a light dusting. I would NOT recommend this condo if you’re planning on entertaining or cooking meals, or are expecting a luxurious stay. The oven does not work, the ice machine is broken, there was ONE wine glass, knives are dull, and pots and pans are covered in leftover food and grease. Lots of dust on furniture, blinds, etc and crumbs on counters, tables and floor. Really have a hard time believing that a cleaning service comes in between each stay. However, despite all this, we really enjoyed our stay! The ski in/ski out location is unbeatable, and you can enjoy free live music in the evenings from the convenience of the balcony!

Garbage.
I’ve used VRBO for over a decade and never had such a bad experience as I did at this rental. The location was: Dirty: Meat juices and onion on cutting boards; Rooms not vacuumed Worn: Paint and carpet are trashed; Missing towel holders; Broken toilet paper holders Disrepair: Broken TVs; Broken audio equipment The Father seemed trustworthy but the Son is absolutely terrible. Refuses to pick-up the phone and/or return an email. Do yourself a favor: Spend your money elsewhere.

Check in was smooth, the elevator opens directly into the place. It was very clean and updated. First time doing ski in ski out and didn't realize how invaluable it is. Bringing my kids back during a break and then going right back up was a great experience. Will definitely be staying again

Worst experience ever on VRBO. Dishonest host.
We are frequent users of VRBO and have never left a bad review before this. My wife checked in and the property was filthy. Lights did not work, etc. Looked nothing like the pictures. She decided that she could not stay there and contacted the host. The host promised to refund our money so we checked into another property. After frequent attempts to contact the host afterwards, we realized that he would not honor his offer to refund our money. Do not stay here!
