Tamarack Lodge Motel

We really enjoyed our stay at the Tamarack Lodge. The Manager is very attentive and hospitable. The only minor issue we had was the space was pretty tight inside the room with limited seating area. Overall though, we loved the experience and would definitely stay again next time.

Perfect getaway from crowded places. Short walk to the beach, and restaurants are just a mile away in Tahoe City. Loved the combination rustic/steampunk style in cabin 16. Nice kitchen with all necessary things to make a pleasant stay.
Definitely will try to come back in winter.
Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our stay tremendously. The staff here is incredibly nice! I really can't say enough about them. Our son got sick on our trip and they were fantastic. The room was comfy and the kitchenette was very functional. The only change I would make would potentially be A/C. The location in the forest keeps it pretty cool but I could see it being missed on a particularly hot day.

Loved the small cabin, was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the kitchen (stove, microwave, pots, dishes, coffee maker + free coffee!). Mostly kept the curtains closed, as the proximity of other buildings made it feel less private with them open. Both owners were kind and welcoming. Perfect location for hiking — it was so nice to start hikes from the cabin rather than needing to drive. Also an easy 20-30 minute walk to Tahoe City for dinner.

We stayed in cabin 19 which was charming, cozy, clean and comfortable. It’s a great location and our little dog was very happy sniffing the grounds. We cooked meals and the cabin had the necessary dishes, pans etc. It was peaceful and quiet. My daughter says it was like being in a Christmas movie 😂. One paw and two thumbs up!
