We arrived to the condo and the power was out for a few hours and randomly throughout the night due to a fallen tree close by. Owners were helpful and communicative. Connected us to the local contact too. Condo was clean and exactly what we needed. Came stocked with some simple kitchen supplies, too. Shuttle service made it easy to get to the mountain.

We enjoyed our week at this nicely renovated Gold Bend condo. The condo was comfortable, well-stocked with everything we needed and close to Northstar village. It also had easy access to parking, which is a plus in Gold Bend! We would stay here again next time we're in north Tahoe.

Great stay, amazing location & host!

This house is in an amazing location. Access to shuttle is very easy and it is a super quick ride to Northstar. Ardy is an amazing host and was very responsive to all of our questions and keeps the house well stocked. Check-out and check-in was super simple. A couple notes for families staying: There is a sledding hill behind the house and a couple sleds to use on property, but because of the high snow covering the walkway we unfortunately could not easily access the hill. The pool and hot tub facility is very nice - 3 large hot tubs and a well heated pool (and you can BYOB!). However, it is on Northstar property and was a little difficult to find. They have parking specifically for the rec center (not sure if they charge for it?) right next to where you park to ski. We decided to go directly after skiing and shuttle home so did not park. During peak times (beginning or end of day) the shuttle would not drop us off or pick up directly at the rec center due to high traffic, so we had to walk from transit stop through village to get there (a short walk, but again difficult to find the first time). They also raised their visitor rates to $10 per person & charged $2 per towel, so a little pricey for our short 30-minute stay in the hot tub. Overall, great and convenient property. Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic condo

We were looking to getaway for the week and had stumble upon this condo. This condo is beautiful and had everything we needed for our getaway. Clean, stylish, comfortable and modern. There were snacks available and all sorts of coffees for your liking. There was an extra foldaway bed which was really nice because we didn't have to worry about sharing. The host responded quickly to my messages. The downside was making reservations for the pool instead of being able to go when we pleased but it wasn't a deal breaker. The host even thought about your four legged friends; water bowl, pee pads and a bed. Golf course nearby if your a golfer. Along with many nearby hiking trails. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice Place with Thoughtful Extras

Very nice condo, stylish, cozy, and comfortable. It was the perfect amount of space for our family of 4, nice separation of space with 2 bedrooms on the lower level, master bedroom on top and the living area in between. The beds were very comfortable and the unit was quiet, we all slept well. Unexpected, thoughtful touches like coffee/espresso pods, milk frothers, a few drinks, snacks, and even slippers were a definite bonus! Great location for getting out on the slopes with the shuttle so close by. The kitchen is nice but a little limited if you want to do much cooking. There's a nice cooktop but no oven, only a countertop toaster oven. The pans and utensils are pretty basic and they only plastic wine & water glasses. May want to bring your own if you want to make sure you have what you need. The living area is very cozy with the fireplace, big couch and nice large screen TV for movie watching. Enjoy!
