Fantastic lodge in the woods in beautiful Tahoe. Highly recommended!

Cannot express how wonderful our stay at Tamarack Lodge was. My wife and I visited for a wedding in Tahoe City and really couldn't have asked for more. Gerard (the owner) was incredibly friendly and helpful. We stayed in cabin 16 and it was cozy, warm, and very comfortable. All of the amenities were top notch, and it even had a sitting area / deck outside where we could eat breakfast each morning.
Can not recommend Tamarack Lodge strongly enough. Stop searching and book now! You'll be very happy you did.

Clean & cozy with modern amenities. Would stay again!

Great price and great location near Tahoe City. Due to the Mosquito fire air quality and conditions weren't ideal, but because of cancellations we were upgraded from a Poker Room to the Sweet Cabin 16! It was such a cozy/cute little cabin with a modern kitchen and bath, and a private porch with a beautiful lacquered pine table. Once you enter the parking lot, the entire property is surrounded by trees and we saw a few adorable tiny ground squirrels! It was a bummer we were only there for one night because air conditions improved significantly in the afternoon after we checked out. It really just depends on which way the winds blow. I wish we'd been able to stay another night! By the time we left Emerald Bay around 2:30pm Monday the air was clear and we saw blue skies. There was even a drizzle of rain as we headed out. While it was disappointing that the fire was affecting the visibility and air quality, there was no imminent threat of evacuation, and all the roads in and out of Tahoe were open. Next time we're in Tahoe we will definitely stay at Tamarack Lodge again!

Room tip: Sweet Cabin 16 is standalone with it's own parking spot near the owners' home/office

Perfect cabin in the woods!

What a gem. Walking distance to lake and Tahoe City (1 mile). Backs to State Park land. Full kitchen, dining table, outside patio, and super comfy bed! Superb staff! Will definitely stay here again. I stayed in cabin #17.

A Wonderful Experience!

Spent a week in the Lodge Cabin in early August. Cabin was clean, well-equipped and nicely sized for 4 adults. Located across the street from the lake and the public boat launch which made getting on the lake with our jet skis very easy and convenient! The owner, Gerard, was extremely friendly and always accommodating to any of our needs. Highly recommended! Thank you Gerard, we will return!

Great location, excellent service, stylish room decor

You can't see the Tamarack Lodge from the street, only the sign. Which means you can't see the street from it. So, it's like being in the middle of the woods. Yet, within minutes from shops and restaurants. We stayed in one of the rooms in the motel-like part of the lodge. Decor was impeccably "cabin in the woods" style, from wood slab table and shelves to rustic lamps to the shower curtain. The room could use a few more or better situated power outlets and the pillows could use more fluff, but what little was lacking was more than compensated by wonderful, personal service. Gerard (I hope I spelled his name right) called us because we were arriving quite late and greeted us when we finally made it to show us the way. And then on our second night we bought soup, forgetting that we didn't have anything to warm it up in and eat from. I called him to ask if by any chance he happened to have any bowls, and he brought us two brand new bowls and even a kitchen towel. Thank you, Gerard!
