SCOUT REVIEW
For many years, Northstar Village wasn’t much more than a small collection of older lodges. Then in 2005, a major revamp of the area created a wonderful village filled with meandering walkways weaving their way through shops, cafes, restaurants and bars – with several condo buildings throughout. And to top it off, an ice rink was built in center of the village, with fire pits scattered around. All of this combines to make Northstar a happening place on any ski day, particularly in the evenings when the bars (and the chocolate bar) start taking precedence over the skiing.
Tahoe Mountain Resorts Lodging has a collection of luxurious condo buildings right in the heart of Northstar Village. This listing covers three of those condo buildings – the ones that are situated right in amongst the action. They are generously sized and nicely appointed, and would be a welcome home-away-from-home after a long day on the slopes.
Big Horn Lodge has two bedroom condos only and is the closest of the group to the ski slopes. It even has some condos on the ground floor that guests can ski directly into. Condos at the back have nice views of the woods and part of the ski slopes. Some condos directly face the ski slopes and gondola. Others face the village area. Guests have access to fitness center, hot tubs, a swimming pool and private ski storage locker
Catamount Lodge has a selection of studio suites and is the next closest to the slopes and the gondola. These luxury studios, condos and residences feature gourmet kitchens, full sized washer and dryer, high-speed Internet and access to complimentary underground, heated parking. The lodge also boasts four fitness centers, an outdoor swimming pool, six outdoor hot tubs, five steam rooms and three locker rooms. Some of the higher suites on the valley side have great views of the valley. The rest have village views.
Iron Horse Lodge has one, two and three bedroom condos and is split into two buildings: North and South. Iron Horse North has some condos facing the woods and snow, while others face the village. It has its own fitness center and is also the closest building to the swim center and the guest reception center. Higher condos in Iron Horse North on the valley side have great views of the valley. The rest have village views. Iron Horse South includes a fitness center, outdoor hot tubs, steam and locker rooms.
Who should stay here
Tahoe Mountain Resorts Lodging would suit families or groups of friends who want to be within steps of the ski slopes, and who would like to have a well-appointed home for their ski vacation.
Location
The three buildings are scattered throughout the main part of Northstar Village – some slightly closer to the slopes than others (see the descriptions in the review section). Most are within walking distance of the restaurants, bars and shops of the meain village.

About Northstar
Northstar California Resort is one of the lesser known Tahoe ski resorts, so most people who come here are pleasantly surprised. The resort has undergone gigantic improvements in recent years and the European-style village is now a vibrant and happening place that has a wonderful homely feel. There’s a variety of accommodation options, shops, bars and restaurants on pedestrian-only walkways that meander around buildings and an ice-skating rink. Oh, and the skiing is pretty good too!
