The family's ski destination, Vail Resorts' Northstar California is all about easy access to what's great about living in a mountain town. Boasting one amenity after the next, from an on-site skate rink to curbside ski butlers, and from a live concert venue to fine dining at the adjacent Ritz Carlton's Manzanita restaurant, Northstar living is ski resort life at its absolute best.

Choose from a wide array of practical, ski-in/ski-out winter-season condos and stunning year-round residences at the Ritz. Every option offers a range of all-season recreation ideas, including the region's preeminent lift-accessed downhill mountain biking course. While trailheads for summer hiking abound, there's no beating the ease of access to incredible skiing and snowboarding for months on end. Point yourself at Northstar, and become one with luxury ski culture.
