This home exceeded every expectation. The ski-in/ski-out access is truly unbeatable—you step right off the deck and onto the run, then ski straight back home. Après-ski in the private hot tub overlooking the slopes was the perfect way to end each day. The space is modern, open, and incredibly comfortable. The main living area is ideal for gathering, and the gourmet kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could need. Upstairs, the second living area was a huge bonus—it gave everyone room to spread out, relax, watch TV, or unwind after a long day on the mountain. The location is peaceful yet incredibly convenient, with easy access to Northstar Village, The Tree House amenities, and the Ritz-Carlton. And Lori is hands-down the best host we’ve ever had—responsive, thoughtful, and truly invested in making the stay exceptional. We would absolutely return and recommend this home without hesitation. PS our kids loved the bunks beds
