Where Every Stay Feels Like Coming Home

There’s a certain rhythm to life at Tamarack Lodge - unhurried mornings, lakeside afternoons, and evenings spent reconnecting with the people who matter most. Lodge Living is about more than a place to stay; it’s about settling into a pace that feels natural, familiar, and deeply restorative.

For over two decades, Tamarack Lodge has welcomed families, couples, and longtime fractional owners to our stretch of East Grand Traverse Bay, where memories are made season after season. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifteenth, the feeling is the same: you’re part of something special here.

A Resort Designed for Together Time

From our expansive private beach and dock to fireplace in the lobby and families gathered around playing cards, Tamarack Lodge is thoughtfully designed to bring people together. Kids spend the day building sandcastles and swimming, while adults linger over coffee in the lodge or unwind after a day on the water. Inside, cozy gathering spaces invite conversation, such as puzzle tables, games, and quiet corners that encourage slowing down and staying awhile.

Suites That Feel Like Home

Our signature condominium suites offer the comforts families love most: spacious living areas, fully furnished kitchens, private balconies, and room to spread out. Many of our guests return year after year to the same suite, creating traditions that feel as familiar as home.

A New Chapter for Tamarack Lodge

As Tamarack Lodge continues to grow, we’re excited to introduce brand-new hotel rooms alongside our beloved suites. Designed with the same warmth and care guests have come to expect, these new accommodations expand the ways travelers can experience Lodge Living, whether for a weekend escape or a longer Northern Michigan getaway.

The Little Moments Matter

It’s often the small details guests remember most: watching the sunrise over the bay, cookies by the fire in the evening, or the ease of walking straight from your room to the beach. These everyday moments become the backdrop for lifelong memories - and that’s what Lodge Living is all about.

Whether you’re planning your first stay or returning to a place that already feels like yours, Tamarack Lodge invites you to experience Northern Michigan the way it was meant to be enjoyed: together, comfortably, and at your own pace.
