Perfect Family Stay This house had everything we needed to make this a wonderful, multi-generational holiday stay. The layout of this house was really perfect for us: many levels and large spaces. The kitchen was very well-stocked (as was the rest of the house) so we were able to make many meals at home. Our kids had fun sledding on the sleds supplied. The hot tub was so nice after being in the snow all day. The access to the shuttle was a super bonus! It picked us up right at the bottom of the driveway! So nice to not have to deal with driving and parking!Laura was wonderful in her communications with us. I would definitely recommend this house to others for a great stay at Northstar!

Great winter stay! We were two families of 4 with 4 teenagers and it was a great fit for us. Everything was as described and instructions were very clear. The large hot tub was a great perk after a day of skiing. We had a minor issue but it was addressed immediately. Laura really cares about her guests enjoying her lovely home.

Great cabin in Northstar community. This cabin has a great set of amenities and is really well maintained. We've stayed here multiple times and the experience was always very positive.

Incredible stay and great host My family and I stayed at Laura’s cabin this last weekend and had an incredible stay. The house is big enough to really sprawl out in, especially with the kids! We loved that we were right on the Northstar shuttle line, that was very convenient. Laura was incredibly supportive and communicative throughout our entire stay. 5/5 would highly recommend!

Great stay We really enjoyed our time. The house was clean and well equipped with supplies. The host was very helpful and communication was easy. Highly recommend.

Beyond expectations Our experience renting this house went beyond expectations. It has everything you need and much more. Hot tub, backyard sledding (sleds included) free shuttle to/from Northstar, enough beds and seating for our extended family (11 of us!). Check in and check out were easy and detailed instructions for hot tub, fireplace etc. made everything super clear. Laura was an amazing host, extremely responsive and was available by text. I highly recommend this rental home and hope to stay again in the future!

Nicely Appointed Home This cozy cabin was great for our group and the host was easy to work with. The kitchen in particular was very well appointed with everything one would need to cook a nice meal.

BEST EVER This fabulous home has it all! It is spacious, comfortable, clean, and is by far e most well appointed and well thought out vacation space we have ever stayed in! I love this host’s attention to detail with lists of what is available (like a blender and sleds in the garage for snow play) so one can pack and plan meals and activities appropriately. We enjoyed watching it snow while sitting in front of the fire, sledded down the hill in the backyard, took the shuttle to ski at Northstar, and relaxed in the hot tub underneath the stars. Our host was responsive, and helpful in every way. Each member of our party, from age 3 to 60 had a fabulous time!

gorgeous home clean, fully equipped, lots of fun things like a foosball table, a hot tub, al fresco dining, decor house so fun...

Short Weekend at Tahoe/Truckee This property was perfectly located between Truckee and Tahoe (just a quick 15-20 min drive to both). The property is gorgeous, clean and perfect for groups. Check in and check out instructions were long but were more geared toward longer stays than a quick weekend. The owner was really easy to work with and communicative. Check out and in was easy. I would 100% recommend to a friend.

Cozy retreat with great amenities Stayed in Feb 2022 with a party of 11 (6 adults, 5 kids under 11). Loved the hot tub, sauna, cozy living room, sledding out the back door with the provided sleds. Well insulated, not at all drafty, good separation of living and sleeping spaces. Kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

Great stay Good location, house is large and clean.

Wonderful place to rest following evacuation from CALDOR fire Following my family's evacuation due to CALDOR fire, Laura offered to allow us to stay at her property for free. She and her family were so generous and so kind to us. This was the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed in. It is a beautiful house in a beautiful neighborhood in Truckee, CA. I highly recommend this property.

Tahoe Weekend Getaway Laura's home was fantastic on all fronts. Her communication to me was excellent. This was my first experience with Vrbo and I'll come back with no hesitation. Thanks!!

Fantastic Stay! Our family of 4 (including 2 teens) had a wonderful stay at Laura's home in Northstar! The house is well appointed, amazingly stocked and very clean. The house backs to the forest - lovely! Just a quick walk up the hill connects you with the very extensive Northstar hiking trail network - fantastic! Laura was wonderful to work with. Quick to answer questions and provide local recommendations. We can't wait to rent her home again!

Great stay, very convenient to the slopes! Great property and the property manager was very friendly, helpful and responsive. Will definitely look to stay at this place again next time I'm heading up to Tahoe!

Northstar Mountain Home Maybe the best VRBO experience we have had. Communication and response from Laura, the owner was always spot on quick and helpful. Home was super comfortable, well appointed and perfect for our family of 5, with room to spare. It was very clean, well organized and stocked with instructions for everything. Not over the top luxury but just a perfect mountain home. Home is on a few levels and there is a flight of stairs to get to the front door. Not an issue for us but suppose it could be for others. Hot tub, sauna and foosball for relaxing and fun. Great internet, fire and TV for gathering in the main living area. Shuttle comes right to the driveway and is a 10 minute ride to the Northstar base. Everything you could possibly want for a stay in the mountains.

Wonderful mountain getaway We had a fabulous time at this beautiful home. Laura was wonderful and made us feel so welcome. The home had everything we could have ever wanted and the proximity to skiing at Northstar was great with the shuttle picking up right at the house. The setting is so picturesque. We can’t wait to return!

Great life celebration Laura had excellent communication with us through entire stay. We enjoyed the home perfect way to inhale beauty.

Lovely Cabin with 5-Star Service Wonderfully appointed accommodations at a reasonable cost. The owner provided 5-star service, exceeding our expectations. You will not be disappointed!

Fun Family Getaway We had a wonderful trip and highly recommend this property. Laura was extremely communicative throughout the process, which I appreciated. She's got a great contract and check-in materials, so we had a really good idea of what the cabin was equipped with, and check-out instructions were clear and easy. The house itself was so comfortable for our group of seven, with plenty of areas for adults and kids to have their own spaces. We loved the views and spent so much time on the patio -- reading, eating, having cocktails, you name it. And the path to the Village at Northstar couldn't have been easier to access from the house. We so enjoyed our stay and recommend this house!

Outstanding experience at Casa de Lobos Casa de Lobos provided a wonderfully warm, comfortable, well-stocked base camp for our four day ski vacation over Presidents Day weekend 2020. A high-communication owner with a gift for hospitality was the key component that made our stay as easy, fun and relaxing as anywhere we’ve rented before. A great location and a superbly clean home were the icing on the cake. This is a place we’d definitely come back to next time we rent at Northstar!

Great family vacation home - must return! We had a fantastic experience staying at this Northstar resort cabin. The house is very spacious, even better than the pictures, and felt very much like home to us. We were two families with young kids and had plenty of space to spread out with the layout. The hot tub was wonderful, and the kitchen was fully stocked. Loved coffee provided every morning. No issues whatsoever and lots of documentation so we knew everything in advance. They have a great brand new deck & staircase out front - beautiful! The shuttle is also such a great perk. We had a great time and hope to be back again soon!

Northstar Our family enjoyed staying in Northstar. The home is comfortable and warm. Enough seating to watch a football game together in the evening with the fireplace burning. The spa and sauna are great. The beds are comfortable. The owner Laura was so nice to work with.

Perfect A brilliant house. luxurous and very nice atmosphere. Cosy.

Lovely stay at Northstar/Truckee Fantastic communications with the owner who was responsive and prompt, as well as helpful. Great house, lots of room, great views of the trees, comfortable furnishings, fully equipped kitchen, great location (easy drives to Truckee river rafting, Donner Lake, Truckee downtown, etc.) Easy to call shuttle to Northstar Village (right at the end of the drive!) and fantastic passes to beautiful Northstar rec center/pools/facilities. Kids love the bunkbed rooms and foosball, parents the separate spaces, great patio furniture on the deck, and hot tub. Thanks!

Fantastic! Great place, very comfortable, ideal located.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for an amazing vacation in Tahoe!!! The home was so wonderful four our two families. Just perfect; beautiful ,so comfortable and very spacious for both the adults and kids . The home is so well appointed and stocked ! The location was incredible too and the host Laura could not have more helpful, thoughtful and gracious. We really loved this home and will definitely be back . Thank you again for makeong our vacation great!!

Terrific! Well appointed and comfy home for our family vacation! We will definitely go back!!

Great house, great owners We just spent a lovely weekend in this house. The house is very well stocked, it had everything we needed and more. The owners are truly fantastic. They provided a lot of information and were super responsive to any questions we had - they genuinely want guests to have the best experience possible. The house was perfect for two families. It backs up to a giant hillside that our kids spent hours playing on while we could watch them from the kitchen window, deck and hot tub. And having the Northstar shuttle pick us up on our own driveway was a game-changer for making the ski day more fun. We will stay there again!

Clean well organized house with everything we needed for a wonderful stay. Amazing weekend

Lovely stay We really enjoyed our stay. The house is thoughtfully set up and was the perfect spot for our family. The amenities, location, and space are all top notch.

Lovely and spacious A wonderful family home that is great for kids of all ages. Our teens loved the downstairs room while we enjoyed the spacious and inviting great room. The owner went out of her. way to help us enjoy the stay (despite an epic storm that made our travels difficult)

Beautiful house and great host! Really great house with everything that you would need. Laura was fantastic at being a great host and was so helpful and communicative. I think this was one of best places we have stayed in around Northstar and actually, Tahoe in general. We were so lucky to have found this. Beautiful location and beautiful house. Thank you for letting us stay.

Perfect for Northstar We really enjoyed our stay at this amazing place. The house is perfectly situated 5 minutes from Northstar Ski Resort and has a convenient "on demand" shuttle to bring you to and from the slopes. My friends and I took full advantage of the back porch hot tub and the built-in sauna room. This house had any and every amenity that you could desire and Laura was a very responsive owner throughout the entire trip. This place comfortably sleeps 10 people and is big enough that you never feel crowded. I would rate this as one of the best ski weekend rentals I've ever stayed in. Highly recommend.

Spacious and well equipped. Owners we very accommodating! Would like to stay here again. It’s great having your own jacuzzi on the deck following a good hard day of skiing! Loved our stay!
