About Northstar California

 

The Way It Should Be

From the moment you arrive at Northstar California Resort, a relaxed feeling comes over you and you know you're at home among friends. You've successfully escaped the hustle and bustle, and quickly get accustomed to the laid back, California vibe this unique resort emits.

No matter if you're just starting out or have more experience, at Northstar you're sure to learn something new or simply build confidence, and one-of-a-kind programs like the Burton Snowboard Academy provide innovative ways to learn. Whether you prefer to carve the corduroy, rip through the trees, send it in the 22-Foot Superpipe designed by two-time Olympian Shaun White, or relax by the many fire pits sharing stories with family and friends, at Northstar there are ample opportunities to play, relax and spend quality time with people you love.

Thigh burning steeps. World-class terrain parks. Impeccable grooming. Unmatched tree skiing. Wind-protected slopes that hold powder stashes days after a storm. Delectable dining. Slope-side lodging ranging from family-friendly to pampered luxury. The personalized, thoughtful guest service you desire, and complimentary s'mores at the end of every day. It's all here waiting for you.

Those who come to Northstar know what they're looking for. Sometimes it's adventure, sometimes it's to learn, and sometimes it's to be guided through an experience of a lifetime. When you're here, you'll find your experience to be the way it should be.
