About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

TRUE SKI IN/SKI OUT. Ski by the living room window.

This one bedroom, one bath Ski Trail condo lets you literally SKI IN AND SKI OUT, JUST A FEW FEET FROM YOUR FRONT DOOR . The front window is right on the trail. Park the car, forget about the shuttle, and stop carrying your equipment hundreds of yards. We have two boot dryers/heaters for your use. (And the secure locker just outside the front door lets you leave your gear outside the unit.)

The living room features a large leather sectional sofa, real wood-burning fireplace with gas starter, and a 55-inch wall-mounted HD flat panel TV with HD programming and a DVD/DVR. We also provide high speed internet access via a high speed cable connection and Wi-Fi.

The kitchen includes a large refrigerator with ice maker, gas stove and oven, dishwasher, microwave and coffee maker. You can eat at the pass-through bar between the kitchen and living room, or use the table, which can accommodate four.

In addition to the queen-size bed in the bedroom, the living room sofa easily converts to a queen-size sleeper. Two foam sleeping pads are also available for floor use, and are great for kids. We have added a queen size air bed. Very comfortable.

Your stay will also give you access to (and gated, private parking at) the recreation center ($10.00 per person per day), which has a complete workout gym, an outdoor heated lap pool open year-round, and three large hot tub spas available only to Ski Trail owners and guests.

Perfect for Father and Adult Son
Fantastic location for winter sports enthusiasts. At 58 years old, location to chairlift/gondolas is a game changer. Also, access to the recreation center for Hot Tubbing and swimming helped these old knees out! Simple, Practical Tranquil and Accommodating best describe the Condo. Plus, the Host was accessible and helpful with our questions. Highly recommend it.

Coyote Fork Ski In/Out
Property is on Coyote Fork in the building closest to the Condo Run, so is very much a ski in / ski out location. You can literally look out the window and see the Village Express chairlift and the condo run (and the village run behind a few trees.) These condos were built some time ago (I want to say 1975?), so the units vary depending on when they were most recently remodeled. This unit was in good working order - perhaps last updated around 2000 (oven had a 25 year old serial number?) though furniture looked newer. Everything was clean; cleaners do a great job! Please do read the listing carefully - unlike any other location we've stayed, there was no shampoo or bath soap provided. There was a coffee pot, but no coffee (not even a partial open bag from a prior tenant...) Oh, as the last unit at the end of a bunch of stairs, you might want to consider driving down to the village for dinner (skiing back in isn't an option after the gondola closes down for the night) - there is free parking in the premium lots after 3 pm.

Property is located near the Vista Express Lift and Main Gondola. A "Ski Condo Run" is located directly behind the property and you can walk to the run and head to the main gondola. Other amenities such as boot dryer, easy parking access, excellent heater, comfy couch, and cozy bedroom, made this property excellent for a short stint at Northstar!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
It was OK. The visit had a mix of pros and cons. Firstly, it's worth noting that the property is quite outdated, which might charm some guests but might not be everyone's cup of tea. A major issue was the bathtub faucet, which was already broken. The handle came off right in my hand, making it difficult to use. This is something that definitely needs attention. On the plus side, the property is affordable, and it's kept clean, with fresh linens provided. It's also a quiet place, which was welcomed. However, the furniture in the property is showing signs of wear and tear, and the rugs look like they've seen better days, with visible stains. There are a few burntout light bulbs. The master closet is full of odds and ends for the upkeep of the place, The fireplace was a cool feature however I did not use it. In summary, this property is a cost-effective and peaceful option. Just be prepared for some dated decor and a few maintenance concerns.

Small but functional condo
The place is in a great location for ski/bike access to Northstar resort. The listing says there is a pool and hot tub but these a very far away and cost an additional fee to use. That was a bummer. The place is very small so I would not recommend for more than two couples or a small family.

Amazing location!
My family of four just stayed at this property for four nights. Overall we were really pleased with our stay. Kiddos slept on the pull out couch which was kind of terrible/saggy, but otherwise everything was great. The bed was comfy and the room was really dark, great for sleeping. The boot dryers were so amazing and handy, as was the locker outside to store our skis and poles. The kitchen was well stocked and even had an electric water kettle to easily make tea and oatmeal. Lots of hooks just inside the door for hanging jackets and snowpants. And the location was amazing!! Was literally a 45 second walk from the door to the ski run. We try to stay on site at Northstar so we don’t hVe to deal with parking and preciously had stayed in the Village above the shops which was great, but we really liked this better. Also an easy walk to the Village via a path. Would definitely stay here again.

The property was convenient for getting on and off the slopes. The property was outdated, dirty and had a broken plumping fixture that even had a note above it drirecting you how to work the shower faucet. If the plumbing was updated and not broken then the note wouldn't have been necessarily. Activities center enjoyed by the homeowners should be included for guest who are renting. Was charged 10 dollars just to sit in a hot tube. Will not rent from same facility.

The condo is in a perfect location for ski in and ski out. Communication with the owner was excellent. Condo is a bit dated but is very comfortable and well appointed with everything we needed for our 3 day stay. We would definitely stay here again when we visit Northstar during the winter.

The property was phenomenal. It is quite large inside (the photos don’t do it justice) and we found the space very clean. The heater worked great, there is a nice ski closet and the boot warmers were amazing. The location is unparalleled and being able to ski down to the chair lift was amazing. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back and book again.

We loved it! This condo is as close as you can get to the condo/village run at Northstar. Just walk a few yards past the building and you are on the run. This condo had a good layout for our family, with bedroom and pull out sofa. Well equipped kitchen had everything we needed.

Terrific place
First time we experienced snowfall. We loved the view from the window of the property as we could see snowfall and snow and folks snowboarding through the place. The ski place at Northstar is 5 min by car and is very convenient. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the place. Tom was very clear in his overall communication. One suggestion: Fixing the TV to have wifi / wired internet connection would be great though there are many holiday movies as part of vintage CD/cassette collection.
