Big Horn 205 - Northstar Village Condo, Steps Away from Gondola, Sleeps 4, Hot Tub and Gym

Welcome to Big Horn 205

Settle into the open-concept living area, made for cozy winter evenings. Warm up by the fire or watch the snow fall outside the windows, and use the queen pull-out couch to bring along a couple of extra friends. The dining area seats 4 with a view of the village, and the balcony just off it lets you soak in the winter scene below. The kitchen is fully stocked, with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar for hot cocoa and après-ski meals. In the primary suite, sink into a king bed, then unwind in the en suite bathroom with a double sink, a stand-up shower, and an oversized bath that's perfect for soothing tired legs after a day on the slopes.

A perfect location in the village… right near the Gondola for easy access to the slopes as well as all the amenities the village has to offer. The condo was just as good if not better than the pictures. The mattress was comfy, and we had a wonderful time!

We loved how close we were to everything. Literally right next to the gondola and a very short walk to ski lessons check-in, important for those with little ones, The place had everything we needed and is very spacious. We didn’t need to drive anywhere because everything was just a few minutes walk.

Old but comfortable

The location was awesome. The unit itself was old and lots of things falling apart (carpet, stains on couch, media table, fireplace, washer, utensils and cooking tools, etc) but it was clean. The pullout bed was not comfortable or easy to setup.

Northstar Village

This is my favorite family vacation destination. Staying in the village is very convenient. We rent our gear and go grocery shopping in Truckee then head over to the village. We don’t need the car until we leave for the airport. Besides the slopes there are many things to do at the village.. Ice skating rink, fireplaces, fitness center with jacuzzis, Pizzaria, Mexican food and the best waffles you will ever find. There’s a wonderful convenience store in the village. We go there for last minute things we need or forgot to bring.. We always have a great time at Northstar!

We stayed over the holidays with our two young children (1 and 4), and while the location and surroundings were truly special, the condition of the unit was disappointing and ultimately affected our comfort during the stay.The location is excellent. Access to the gondola, ice-skating rink, and restaurants was incredibly convenient. We especially loved taking the Highlands gondola to the Ritz for Christmas Eve dinner—it was a memorable experience, and our kids had the joy of a true white Christmas. We made many core family memories during the trip, which we’ll always value.Unfortunately, the cleanliness of the unit fell well below expectations, particularly for a family with young children. Upon arrival, there was dog hair throughout the unit and mouse droppings in multiple areas—in corners, inside closets, behind nightstands, and even under the throw blanket on the bed. Because of health concerns, we had to vacuum the corners ourselves immediately after arriving. Despite this, we still felt uneasy staying in the space for the duration of our visit.The lack of attention to detail in the cleaning made it hard to fully relax and enjoy the home, especially given the otherwise premium location and holiday setting. With proper, thorough cleaning, this could be a wonderful place to stay—but for families with young children, cleanliness and care are critical, and in this case, they were lacking.We hope this feedback is helpful and leads to improved standards for future guests

Fantastic stay, we hope to come back

Everything was perfect from start to finish about the experience. The check in process was seamless. The location of the condo could not be beat, just around the corner from the lift, the main square, hot tub and gym amenities, and all the restaurants. The condo felt like we were in a cabin, warm fireplace and mountain décor. The kitchen was stocked with all of the necessary utilities. Great separation between the bedroom (comfy bed) and our two boys who slept on the pullout bed in the Livingroom. Convenient locker on the ground floor to access all of our ski gear. All in all, we had an amazing trip, and this location was a big reason why.

Such a cozy spot!

My family and I stayed at this property over Thanksgiving and loved it! Right in the middle of the village at Northstar we were close to everything! There wasn’t much snow during our trip so no skiing but I can’t wait to come back during the snowy season! This condo is right next to the gondola! It’s very nicely furnished and the kitchen is well stocked.
