Ski-In/Ski-Out Northstar Condo Near Lake Tahoe!

Remote pick up of keys ten minutes away.

Worst communication ever. I didn’t receive any information before I arrived because they had the wrong email address which I did not provide them. I guess I was wrong to assume there would be at least hand soap in the bathroom but there was none,No soap in the bathroom or shampoo. Key to the ski locker was missing. It’s a very good location but not sure I’d stay there again. Check-in process was ridiculous having to pick up a key down in Truckee, unable to check in early even though nobody was in the unit.

Location is the selling point. It is ski in/ski out and that is great. You are at Northstar resort basically so everything is a short walk away. The unit is nice, comfortable and clean and has nice views. The lighting is odd, the tub is odd, the shower reaches your chin. I had zero direct communication with the rental company, so good luck with that. I would rent again but no thanks to the rental company.

Very pleasant and convinient

DO NOT STAY HERE! The owner canceled the reservation (that we made 2 months ago) at 3:45pm fo a 4pm check-in (which is already on the very late side) leaving our family stranded in the cold on the mountain. Thankfully VRBO was able to find us a place to sleep that night but do not trust this owner in the least.

Great location and comfortable condo - just off the ski trail at Northstar.

Hi, Due to the extreme storms (atmospheric rivers) and numerous travel advisories, we were not able to visit the property. Unfortunately, it appears despite the weather issues that was beyond our control, we have no recourse. I have made the property management company and owner aware of the situation. I marked all 3 stars without seeing the property so I can submit this comment. Thanks, Jeff

Pros: awesome location, clean dishware, quiet dishwasher, fairly new stove, excellent heating in living room. Cons: low heat in bedroom. Awkward lighting throughout. No soap/shampoo in shower. Same liquid soap used for dish-soap bottle, foaming soap bottle and liquid soap bottle. Hairdryer won't work. Microwave turntable won't spin. No coffee filters and coffee grinds. No pillow cases for sofa bed. Some towels with makeup on them. Worried about the number of electrical plugs hooked up behind the TV. Shower head is very low. Cleaning crew that didn't speak English came to the condo to clean a whole day earlier than our check out date. On our check out date, they came at 10:20am, instead of after the 11am check out time.

Wonderful condo, it was a bit confusing about how to check in on a Sunday when the office for key pick up was closed. It worked out because finally the night before, I noticed the instructions said to pick up keys in the box next to the office door. also, confusing was the fact that there was no pass in the condo to get into the rec center. I had to call the rec center to find out how to get in.

Upon showing up to check in I was advised our unit was booked. The owner of the rental company was accommodating and luckily had another condo available in a similar area at Northstar, however, it was not a ski in/ski out situation, which was pretty disappointing given the epic snow conditions. Similarly to other reviews about this unit, the one we stayed in was outdated and pretty dusty as it had not been cleaned recently. Overall it was a nice spacious unit with tons of potential. I am hesitant to book through evolve again after finding out our place was not available when it should have been. We were 6 hours from home traveling by car in the snow on New Years weekend with 3 kids. That trip very easily could have been ruined had other arrangements not been available. Evolve has to ensure they’re only working with reputable clients or their reputation will quickly tank. These types of situations are every travelers worst nightmare. (And yes, I did call to confirm our reservation the week of our trip with the actual rental company and was told the keys would be in the box.)
