The staff was very welcoming, the room was incredibly clean, and comfortable. I loved my stay here!
This was a wonderfully appointed room with an excellent view of the bay. My wife and I enjoyed it so much we've talked about making this an annual trip. Loved Tamarack Lodge!
Wonderful - as always... This is the place we always go to celebrate a special day, or to just get away.

Lovely weekend stay. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was very clean and inviting. Beautiful views of the bay. Love the overall lodge vibe of the hotel. We will definitely stay again.
This was one of my most favorite places that I have visited. I can’t wait to go back again. The staff was absolutely amazing and so friendly. The room was very clean. We were there during some heavy snowfall and they were out there constantly snow plowing the parking lot so that we were able to get in and out.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was roomy and clean (although a little insufficiently lighted). This was our second stay and we'll be back.
