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?

Suite 301 - great view. Clean and comfortable. We turned on the fireplace and enjoyed. HOWEVER, because the thermostat is in the same area the heat pump wouldn’t run to heat the rest of the condo. Very cold. Toilet every hour had to run to refill the tank. Reported, service came but did not resolve the issue. Also we could not get the microwave to work. We do like this place and will be back.

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!

Pros - Beautiful architecture. - Comfortable bed. - Great water pressure. - Clean. - Excellent private beach. - Very friendly staff. - Perfect location for exploring near by area. Cons - Windows in room lead to hallway rather than outside so you have no natural light into the room. - Only had breakfast offered on Saturdays. For the price you pay for the room breakfast should be included. - There is virtually no soundproofing between the walls. Heard every conversation our neighbors had. Overall it’s an excellent lodge, but for the price I think you could find a better option that includes the things this place is missing.

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.

We loved the property. However the pillows were not good for either of us & we were unaware we would have to do our own garbage & dishes. It was fine to do, just not made aware of until check in. That said, at that price renting an air b&b would have been the same & we would have had more rooms for others to be together.

For an off-season charge of $315 per night we got a tiny room with no exterior window and a door between rooms with no sound deadening. We could hear every word of conversation from our neighbors plus the lovely sound of one of them violently vomiting in the middle of the night. In addition we asked for restaurant recommendations and the desk clerks informed us that they didn’t really know the restaurants in the area. As for plusses, the bed was comfortable … that’s about it. We will not be returning.
