No parking passes . Almost towed by security

No parking passes in condo when we arrived on June 8 th at 4pm . We called Vacasa and said they would call back . They didn’t . We called again 2 hours later and the Vacasa rep said leave a note on your cars with booking details . We did that but stressed because we know northstar security is relentless and will ticket and tow cars . We were ticketed and threatened to be towed around lunchtime on the 9th . We again called Vacasa on two separate occasions and had poor communication and no call backs . We contacted northstar security and they said we don’t care . Your vehicles will be towed without property parking passes. We tried to call camco homeowners association for assistance and they blamed Vacasa also . We stressed for 24 hours about getting our cars towed . Terrible experience which we want a refund for . The recreation center is $8 a person and not $5 which made our kids return unhappy with not available funds . Overall terrible communication with Vacasa and representatives out of state and no local people to communicate to . Never again will we use Vacasa if this is standard practice

Good stay, property deserves some upgrades

Our family enjoyed a nice ski vacation in this condo. The location is excellent, an 8 minute walk from Northstar (but note that you'll have to walk a bit from your car to the place). It is nicely furnished with a good layout and the kitchen is well-appointed. I would definitely stay again, but this place could get 5 stars with a few minor tweaks. First, the couch has a faux-leather that is flaking off so much that they threw covers on top (but the flakes escape anyway). The ad states clearly that it has a Blu-ray player, but it doesn't (it's a plain DVD) so we couldn't play those movies. One of the TV cables was broken, so we had to play with the cables for the TV to work. Finally, there were just a few odd issues (a few of the stairs to the upper level squeak, the refrigerator door needs tightening, there is a broken lamp in the closet, only 3 wine glasses) that are annoying. Spent a bunch of time on hold as there were supposed to be 2 parking permits and only one was given, so we had to call to get another one.

Great Location, simple clean condo.

Great location to walk to the village. Decent condo with the basics. Nothing too fancy but perfect for a ski weekend with the kids.

Glorified Glamping

Our stay at this property was OK. The place is clean, great location. HOWEVER, the dishwasher was broken when we arrived, we did not know this until trying to wash the breakfast dishes. We had to boil for three days because there was no hot water in the kitchen and no dish washer. The management responded fast but it took a bit to get someone out to repair, by then we were leaving. The couch has a cover on it and is in the worst shape. We are 50 year olds who could not really sit on the couch because of the condition. The TV in the den worked half the time. The place is in a great location and could use some TLC.

Perfect snow getaway!

The condo was a perfect location and great walking distance to the village. Plenty of shops and restaurants. The beds were all very comfy and we enjoyed everything about the place.

Not as Advertised

Not a great experience. Location: walkable to village but lots of stairs. It was a trek from the parking lot to the house and the house to the village. Prepare to walk up. Not great for toddlers. Cleanliness: Gross! Smells like dog pee, bugs and spiderwebs, towels were not clean, towels were on the floor when we arrived, beds are gross and no extra bedding is provided. Geneal: the couch is awful! It’s broken in one section and peeling which comes off on you when you sit up. There is no AC! We were there when it was 88 and the house was HOT. The kitchen is old and the pots pans and utensils are sub-par. The rent was horribly overpriced and they tack on too many fees (50%) rental price. I reached out to the property manager and we only got a sorry response. Do not rent!

Weekend Trip

We decided to take a quick trip up to Northstar with the family. This was a perfect cabin, lots of space, clean , and super convenient to the village. My only suggestion is to update the kitchen features with more details and what is available so the renter can be more prepared if they are wanting to make meals or coffee. The listing said coffeemaker, so I brought coffee but there wasn’t any coffee filters. We made do and I would stay again (and bring coffee filters)!!

Good floor plan nice condo

NICE CONDO I stayed at this condo March 7-11, 2021. The beds are comfortable. Nice TVs in each bedroom and living room. The couch is comfortable but the leather is worn. The kitchen is stocked with basic cookware. The central heating is great. It has a great floor plan. I'm over 60 and it is a walk from the parking lot to the condo. Overall I liked this condo and I have been renting from VRBO for years and never complained about a place. My complaint is with the management company Vacasa. We needed more paper supplies and dishwasher soap. I called Vacasa to get more supplies. I talked with Keith. He told me that you are only allowed a certain amount of paper products and dishwasher soap based on your length of time there and number of people. If I wanted more supplies I would have to pay for them or go buy them myself. I couldn't believe that Vacasa was that petty. I have rented many times and never had a problem getting more supplies. That really made me mad. I would like to know what they do for their fee. So I will never rent a place that Vacasa manages. Otherwise I really liked this condo. I can't give it 5 stars because of Vacasa.

Nice condo for the family and the dogs. Perfect walking distance to the Village and lifts.

Typical NorthStar condo. Nice location for the family. Once we parked, we didn't have to get into the car for the rest of the trip. The walking distance to the Village was good and getting the dogs out was easy. The leather couch in the living room could use replacing. For the price of the stay, it's irritating to plop down on a couch that looks like it came out of a thrift store. The kitchen utensils are scarce, but we made due with a combo of what we brought from home. There is an exposed tack strip in the threshold of the upstairs bathroom door that needs attention. The beds were soft and cozy, but watch your knees on the upstairs bed frame. Ouch! I would pack light for the next trip as the staircase from the parking lot to the condo is not something you want to do more than a couple times. I would have been happier had I spent about $400 less dollars for this place.
