Gorgeous Updated 2BR Heart of Northstar Village near Gondolas - Platinum Level

Recently Updated (Platinum Level), 2BD/2BA condominium in center of Northstar Village. Ski-in/ski-out luxury building just steps to gondola/lifts, restaurants, shops, skating rink, spa amenities including hot tub/gym a few steps to adjacent building and 2nd hot tub/gym & heated outdoor pool just across the drop-off circle. Views of village/mountain from private balcony. Gas fireplace. Gorgeous wood trim/doors, wood furniture, tile bathrooms, slate kitchen, granite counter tops. Free underground parking included. Family friendly. Perfect for amazing mountain sports retreat. Absolutely worth the price for the beauty, fun & convenience of staying in the village.

My place has truly everything you want or need for an amazing stay included within just a few steps: ski-in/ski-out (gondolas/lifts), concierge/check-in desk, award winning restaurants, casual restaurants, cafes and pubs, fun stuff for families (ice skating, skating, bungee trampoline, s'mores, etc), shops, gondolas and lifts, spa amenities and everything else. Our beautiful village condominium building is just 20 years old, with a spacious well designed layout. Elevator for your convenience. Ski locker for your use during your stay. Conditioned underground parking. Key card access upon check-in, just like a hotel but even better.

We also recently updated the unit to exceed @Northstar’s Platinum tier rating standard. Upgrades include: New Carpets in bedrooms and living room, New bathroom and kitchen fixtures, New stainless radiant oven and stove, New couches, LED lighting throughout, Sonos speaker and Nespresso machine.

We also updated the decor with new artwork, entry bench, couches, 3 tvs etc.

My prices are usually lower than other condos in The Village because I manage it myself and want to have it booked as much as possible. My mid-week prices are much lower than weekends, so check my calendar for availability and pricing. Please note there are the standard additional fees for cleaning well as county hotel/occupancy taxes. My place is just as gorgeous as all the other central village luxury condos (even nicer than some) and very clean, with truly lovely furnishings and décor. Compares to Platinum.

ROOM/UNIT DETAILS:
There are 2 bedrooms both with King beds. The master bedroom has a king bed and an additional fold out single bed (slightly narrower than normal twin). This room has en-suite bathroom. The guest bedroom has a king bed and an additional fold out single bed (slightly narrower than normal twin). The additional beds are a really nice bonus for multiple families sharing the condo. Both bedrooms have a desk and tv.

LOCATION:
My unit is on the 2nd floor of Iron Horse North facing the central village across from Great Bear and Iron Horse South. It is a lovely location with easy access to everything in the village. It is NOT above the skating rink nor the hot tub which is a good thing in terms of excess noise, yet it is very close access to everything in the village. Really the perfect location for every convenience.

ADDITIONAL INFO to make your stay enjoyable:
* Your key card will get you in both spa/gym areas: Gym/Hot Tubs at Iron House South just across from our building and the pool at The Village Swim Center which is the main spa/gym across the parking circle from where you checked in.

CHECK-OUT TIME:
Check-out is 11:00 am and the cleaners usually arrive very close to 11am.

EARLY CHECK-IN / LATE CHECK-OUT: Early check-in and/or late check-out may be available depending on my cleaner's schedule. If available, I generally charge a fee equal to about 5% of your nightly rate per hour (basically 1/20 of your nightly rate) with a minimum of $25. Please let me know asap if you are requesting early check-in or late check-out so I can check with the cleaners. I charge this fee because I usually pay the cleaners more for the tight cleaning window and because it is extra work for me to coordinate it with cleaners, front desk, etc. Early check-in to access the garage is no charge.

SPLITTING WEEKENDS/HOLIDAYS: Rentals starting or ending on a Saturday (splitting the weekend), on a major holiday or splitting a major 3 day holiday weekend, will usually incur an additional fee, unless those are the only dates available on my calendar. Normally, the fee is 33% of the nightly weekend or holiday rate.

CANCELLATIONS:
My cancellation policy is full refund if I am able to re-rent it (up to amount of new rental) regardless of when you cancel. Otherwise, for all cancellations more than 14 days in advance, full refund less $100 cancellation fee. For cancellations less than 14 days in advance there is a $250 cancellation fee. No refund for cancellations less than 5 days (unless I am able to re-rent it). Normally, I am able to re-rent it, but usually for a lower price the closer it gets to the check-in date, so please if you must cancel, give me as much time as possible.

CHECK-OUT TIME:
Check-out is 11:00 am and the cleaners usually arrive very close to 11am.
