We stayed just before the start of the summer MTB season. It was wonderfully not crowded, the accommodation was as described and spacious and the amenities (pool, mini cinema, onsite parking) were great. A short drive from the mountain to some great lakeside beaches and close to restaurants and hikes.

The property is beautiful but we went during "shoulder season" so most everything was closed in the village. The hotel sent me a text to let me know most places would be closed before the deadline to cancel without penalty, so i was thankful for that. Heads up they will ask you to attend a timeshare presentation but it is optional.

My daughter fell ill the night before with a really bad flu. Though this location highlights its family friendly accommodations and amenities it refused to reimburse me or even offer me a credit in this situation. Would have been my first time for me and my family at Northstar. Was hoping that this trip could have started a tradition of family stays for me and my children, but looks like that is not going to happen. They have lost a likely repeat customer for good with their inflexibility and failure to understand the challenges of kids during a long flu season.
