Liked: Cleanliness
Easy check in instructions. House was great location near resort and shuttle was easy to use. Dishwasher didn’t actually clean the dishes had to wash them by had it needs repair. The 10 fee per person at rec center should be more clear in the ad. The photos make it seem like the hot tub is on location. Instructions to take trash to the rec center as well jot really clear as it said to use key card and the only dumpster over there is outside the center.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was great, but the stay not so much. The shower in the hallway bathroom downstairs barely got above cold and the shower head needs some attention as it was spraying everywhere. We all decided to take turns showering in the other bathroom instead in order to get a hot shower. Another issue, was that the spray nozzle from the sink doesn't work. The downstairs carpet had an interesting feel and smell to it. This place was not ideal for the price. We'll try another spot next time.

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Seriously outdated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.
