Bright studio with access to hot tub & pools - near the slopes

Aspen Grove Hideaway

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Compact but character-packed, this Northstar vacation rental is a charming studio getaway! You'll be out and enjoying the slopes at Northstar California Resort with ease! Located just to the southeast of downtown Truckee, Northstar offers year-round attractions with premier skiing and snowboarding in the winter, as well as hiking, biking, golf, and a scenic gondola during the summer months. Right at this Aspen Grove Hideaway, you'll have access to Northstar community amenities like tennis courts, a shared pool, hot tub, and a sauna! And if you want to head down to crystal blue Lake Tahoe, it's under 10 miles to the beaches at Tahoe Vista, with Kings Beach just a few minutes beyond.

Your stay at this Northstar vacation condo includes everything you'll need to enjoy your Truckee getaway. There's WiFi, a flatscreen TV, cable, a DVD player, and even a gas fireplace. Come back from a day swooshing through fresh powder and enjoy mugs of hot cocoa in front of the fire. Even if the snow is falling down outside, you'll be quite cozy here. There's a well-stocked full kitchen if you want to make meals in (all appliances are included - even a dishwasher!), and when it's time to sit down to dinner, there's a dining table with seats for everyone. It may have a small footprint, but this Northstar retreat is perfectly designed and laid out! Out on the deck, you'll have a pretty tree-lined view and comfortable outdoor seating.

You'll be a short walk (or a free shuttle ride) from the center of Northstar Resort - the ski lifts, as well as the Village at Northstar for restaurants, a movie theater, bars and late-night entertainment, and even unique shops are easily reachable. There are communal outdoor fire pits at the resort for a cozy late-night, but of course, you could always just head back to your hideaway for some snuggle-time in front of the fireplace.

When it's not ski season, there are still plenty of things to do in Truckee! Take a scenic gondola ride in the summer, play some golf, hike one of Tahoe's scenic trails. If you feel like a drive, you can be at the lake shore in about 15 minutes for an afternoon down on the sand. Finish up your day with lunch in Kings Beach or cross the Nevada state line for some time at one of Crystal Bay's popular casinos.

Enjoy access to the Northstar recreation center amenities, which include tennis courts, basketball courts, a fitness center, a sauna, a hot tub, a seasonal lap pool, and an open grill area next to a beautiful creek surrounded by pine, fir, and aspen trees. (Site rentals include the use of three picnic tables and up to two gas BBQ grills with grilling utensils.) There is a $10 daily fee per person for use of the facilities.

Cute and homey
This was my second time staying at this property. Close to everything at Northstar, clean and warm. I just wish the bed and pillows were a bit more comfortable but great spot for the price.

Close to Northstar
The location is super close to the mountain/gondola. The studio is basic, but is a great place to rest after a full day of activities.

Great studio for skiing at North Star
Our family of four really enjoyed our stay. The condo was just enough space for two nights, with a comfy bed and pull out couch. Full kitchen and coffee was nice. North Star village is about a 5-10 minute walk and we were able to ski back to the condo which was a fun way to end the day. Parking was easy. We will definitely stay here again!

Location can't be beat
This condo needs a new interior paint job, but it slept me and my son comfortably for four nights, and the location can't be beat—it's an easy walk to the gondola, and an easy ski back!

Location and thoughtful amenities
We ski multiple times a year at Northstar (me and my teen/tween girls) and we often stay in new places. The location: when there is not a huge snowstorm blocking your path with heavy snow--you can walk with your gear by cutting through the sparsely wooded back area in about 7 minutes to the gondola. GREAT LOCATION for skiing/boarding. GREAT. Also we once used the community rec center for $8 pp using the included rec center cards-it's near the path to the gondola. There are THREE large hot tubs to choose from and a weight room and locker room with showers (and pool but we didn't use that). Also available is parking at the rec center while we used the rec center which was super nice (the cards we had were "the old system and need to be updated" so they didn't actually work but they can buzz you in and it was close easy to walk to anyway) Caution: avoid if you have people in your party who can not climb ~70 steps with luggage in their hand. The Studio is up three flights of stairs and down a longish walkway that also has steps to get from the parking lot to the building. [Elderly, toddlers, someone in your party has a broken leg. All will find the walk up exhausting unless you can carry them.] We are tweens/teens and sporty adult and we got a real workout each time we went up. Heavy breathing, the burning butt etc. We were pretty stressed when we arrive late at night and saw our walk. But we got used to it quickly and it ultimately wasn't a big deal. BUT once you are up there, the place is delightfully warm (often these ski places are drafty and cold) and well stocked. Hand soap, shampoo conditioner and TP for a couple days (bring more for longer stays), dish washing supplies. The kitchen has all the gadgets you want to bake and cook. Good knife set, (bizarrely limited amount of forks and spoons but there is a dishwasher) The bed is very comfortable as is the pull out sofa. The TV is YUGE and we enjoyed netflix options and included internet and the checkin and out process was very easy. It was also pretty quiet. There is a laundry room on the first floor with door code but we didn't use it. We enjoyed our stay and our behinds benefited from the stair workout!

Close and cozy
Finding the place was tricky in the dark and there is was no directions to the rev center with the hot tub but besides that the place was perfect location. Close to village and rec center as well very comfortable. The heat was on the fireplace and the bed was very comfortable. Easy to pull the sofa bed in and out and enough room for all our luggage. Would highly recommend aspen grove and would seek it out for our stay again!
