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 bike 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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hidden gem in Northstar

Really loved our stay. Was originally going with my son for spring break. At the last minute, one of his friends and friends' dad came along as well. Was worried if the place was big enough but no issues at all. Everyone was comfortable and had a great time. Real ski in/out makes such a big difference. Would definitely stay here again.

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.
