Skidder at northstar
This is an incredible property! If you want the best of all worlds- near Truckee/Tahoe Donner and Lake Tahoe, along with a home that has whirlpool, sauna, fully stocked kitchen (understatement) and watch the sun set over the Sierras from the back porch, this is it. Thank you for the privilege of staying at this property!

The property was gorgeous. Everything we could expect. We have a family of chefs and wanted for nothing! The proximity to hiking, the lake and mountains couldn’t have been more convenient.
Only downside was a roofing crew working on the house next door.

Getaway from it all
The property is tucked in at the Northstar area, you can go out for a walk and are met with silence. The property itself is very spacious. Our family loved cooking in the kitchen, having dinner (and we all fit!) at the dining table. The teens enjoyed the table tennis, while the adults enjoyed having the pool table. The hot tub really only fits 2-3 people max, so not really best use for a large family, but a couple. We didn't get to use the amenities, just due to our own schedule, but they seemed to be easily accessible through the HOA. The only comment I would have is, giving proper access to the circuit breaker - we were left without power in a small part of the property, and the customer service rep was unable to assist because they did not know where it was located/inaccessible to us. However that does not negate the property or our visit itself. I would love to stay at the property again some time!

Beautiful house
My family of 11 loved this house, fully stoked from kitchen to bed linens and towels, we didn’t want for anything. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio and enjoying the view and our grandkids had fun playing pool and the many board games that were provided. We enjoyed going to the rec center for swimming. We will definitely be renting this beautiful house again. Tahoe Getaways was very easy to work with and always very helpful with any questions that we had.

Amazing stay in this beautiful cabin!!
We had a fantastic long weekend stay at this cabin. Location is amazing. Right inside the Northstar resort. We got to take the shuttle to the village without needing to drive our cars at all. The house is very spacious and in great condition. Super clean. It accommodated my 14 guests comfortably. Everyone was super happy about the stay.
The host is really responsive and informative. We are really happy about the services they provided.
