Totally uncrowded day. No lift lines, mountain is fine, not very steep. First time back in 25 years. If you just want to show up and ski, be prepared to walk and walk ..and walk. In your boots. Carrying all your gear. We used the closest drop-off spot and you still have to walk completely through Northstar village, past overpriced restaurants and clothing boutiques that aren't even open, carrying all your gear, and 20 minutes later you are finally at the slopes. After a day on the slopes, reverse the process. This doesn't include walking back to the drop-off spot after parking because the bus wasn't picking up from the lot THEY ushered me into, and was told it was better if I walked. Obviously they care more about making money off the village and cater to the people staying there because they've made it miserable for people arriving by car. Won't be going back.

Beautifully planned resort with all sorts of amenities. Multiple lodges to enjoy while you’re at the ski resort. Huge shoutout to the demo store for helping me demo the perfect board and on another visit lending me a screw after my toe piece binding came off!

This was a really fun trip! I went to Northstar for the day and it was really fun from the village with a movie theater to the skiing down the blues greens and blacks it think this place is very family friendly as there are no REALLY hard runs when skiing (no double blacks) but overall it is a very fun ski resort and I would recommend it.

This was the absolute worst experience I ever had. We booked 2 snowboarding lessons which were a significant amount for what we actually got. The people inside were nice and helpful however once we met the instructor it all went downhill. His name was Chris, he was rude and impatient. Made a comment that we were late, and he didn’t have time to go over the basics. We were only a couple of minutes late and had booked a half day lesson. His “tips” were not helpful at all. He had a condescending tone and looked bothered anytime I asked a question and met me with a short tone. After I came down, early into a lesson, the staff inside apologized but did not look surprised when I made a comment that it was not an enjoyable experience and I did not learn anything. I never heard back from management. Biggest waste of money.

We love this place and try to come here every year. The rooms are very versatile and we have done single rooms to 5 bedrooms and they have all felt spacious and very accommodating. The north star village is like a picture. There is a small movie theater you can request and watch a private movie with popcorn. Ping pong tables and pool available. In the village there is fun ice skating, restaurants, and a gondola that goes up to the Ritz at the top of the mountain. We come back every year because it's relaxing, there's plenty to do and it's not over crowded.
