Northstar Gold Bend Retreat

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Perfect for the whole family, this classic Northstar retreat boasts rustic vibes while still offering all of the modern conveniences you need to feel right at home. As soon as you arrive, you will be greeted by the tall ceilings, accommodating living area complete with a flatscreen TV, and a full kitchen boasting a gas range, beautiful countertops, and all of the tools needed to whip up tasty meals after a day on the slopes. When everyone returns to home base at the end of each day, the private patio will be just the place to sip an evening cocktail and three spacious bedrooms await for a bit of shut-eye!

Enjoy 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.

Sitting just one mile north of the village and lifts at Northstar, this home will be ideal for the skiers of the group to get their fill of fresh powder in no time. A shuttle service is also available from home base, so don't worry about having to find parking. If you want to head into town, the heart of Truckee awaits with eclectic shops, eateries, and cafes just over seven miles north. If a day on the lake is on the agenda, Kings Beach is eight miles away where you can fish, boat, and swim in Lake Tahoe's famous blue water.

Condo at Northstar
The four of us stayed at the condo for three nights and everything was wonderful. It was clean and appeared to be well maintained. We would stay at the condo again in the future.

Beautiful property with some issues
Beautiful property. The shower in one of the bathrooms is broken. They did fix it the next day. The dishwasher leaked into the room below where my sons were sleeping.

DO NOT STAY HERE!
Absolutely awful experience - do not stay here! Northstar is a cute area but the property itself has many issues. The unit did not have properly running heat, had leaks in the ceiling, terrible power system (multiple surges) and just was an awful experience. We asked for a credit after the ceiling leaked and ruined my mom's pillow and blanket and were given nothing. Do not waste your time staying here!

Not for anyone with a disability walking
Did not ever receive a call from the owner. Family member struggled with stairs and had to remain in one room downstairs where the bathrooms are. No air conditioning, hot as hell!!!!

Seriously outdated
This condo is in serious need of an update. The furniture is old and worn, and looks like it was from the 70s. It was blazing hot with no air conditioning. For $1,000/weekend, I would expect way more. Also, they did not provide any information or pass to use the great rec center and pool area, which requires reservations. We finally figured it out, but that needs to be part of the listing/reservation process. Very disappointed.
