Luxurious Ski-In/Ski-Out Resort Offers Distinct Year-Round Amenities in One of Tahoe’s Most Desirable Locations - the Village at Northstar(TM)
TRUCKEE, Calif., Feb. 10, 2009 — The new Northstar(R) Lodge - Hyatt(R) Residence Club at the Village at Northstar(TM) opened in time to ring in the holiday with skiing, ice skating, shopping, dining and relaxing. And now, for a limited time, skiers and other mountain enthusiasts can experience the luxury of this private vacation-ownership resort with special nightly rental rates. Guests can save up to 30 percent off standard rental rates for residential condo-style accommodations by booking online at http://northstar.hyatt.com.
Northstar Lodge features two- and three-bedroom condominium-style units, plus studios for rental. The two- and three-bedroom units range from 1,300 to 1,900 square feet.
