Cozy, comfortable and convenient

The property was absolutely perfect for our needs and so convenient to Northstar Village. Even though it’s not in the actual village (it’s across the main street and a few streets over - and no covered parking) the amenities are, so it’s convenient to head straight from slopes to hot tub. There was some extra steps to check in process that we aren’t used to with VRBO, but easy enough to get through. Overall, we were very happy and would love to return.
Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025
