Great water view.
Great place to stay when you just want more than a hotel. It makes you feel like you at your own apartment or condo.

Beautiful lodge, right on the water! The room was great, with a rustic, cozy feel but with all the modern amenities. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Traverse City!

Excellent location for a perfect relaxing getaway. The private balcony views of the beach and harbour, beach access and spacious rooms were a delight. We will surely stay here again in future visits.

Great location and comfy stay!
Tamarack Lodge is an incredible place to stay in Traverse City. This was our second trip to the area and we opted for a hotel. Check in was incredible, Brig walked me through everything I needed to know and then I parked and we we met with our condo. We stayed in 403 and it was a wonderful condo! The two beds were spacious and the condo was neat and tidy. There are no smart tvs but you can get movies from the front desk with fresh cookies out by 10pm.
We will definitely be returning here again and staying during the summer to get the full summer experience!

Iceman lodging
Stayed at Tamarack Lodge during the “offseason” for a bicycle event in Traverse City. Welcoming and friendly staff upon arrival and throughout stay. Penthouse bayside room was a very nice touch. Kitchen had everything we needed for a self- supported bike weekend. I do wish the bar area was more stocked and staffed. Understandable that seeing it was the offfseason. Also, no recycling?
