What guests think

At Tamarack Lodge, travelers highlight a gorgeous lakeside, historic setting with cozy cabins and a rustic main lodge, consistently friendly staff, an onsite restaurant many enjoy despite high prices, and a simple continental breakfast that some find basic or inconsistent.

Cabins feel comfortable and equipped for simple stays, while lodge rooms tend to be small, rustic, and can transmit hallway noise; in room amenities are limited, and Wi‑Fi or cell service can be spotty. Many appreciate the fireplace lounge and ski shuttle, but winter access to hillside cabins can require icy uphill walks. Expect scenic, low-frills mountain charm.

Rustic stand-alone cabins. Street parking only and you must carry your belongings from the street to the cabin. The paths were uphill and icy during our visit. Care was required to avoid slipping and falling. Take advantage of the complimentary crampons the hotel offers and be safe. Our one bedroom cabin had a kitchen with utensils/pans/pots/plates/mugs/cups and was spacious and comfortable. Fun stay.

My boyfriend and I stayed here while on a ski trip to Mammoth. It was everything we needed! Room was on the smaller side but it was a perfect size for two people. We stayed in a room with shared bathrooms and never had to wait for the bathroom. Overall, the place was pretty clean and had everything we needed. Continental breakfast in the morning and shuttle from Mammoth Village directly to and from the lodge was super convenient. Staff was very kind!

We come here 1-2 times every year. If you want a cosy winter / ski experience, book one of the cabins. Amazin location in the middle of nature. Quite simple but with all necessary amenities. The restaurant is probably the best option in Mammoth, quite pricey though. Have drinks at the bar before.

Lodge is in a beautiful location fronting the lake and lots of hiking/biking trails. While furnishings are dated and old, the cabin is clean and heater is a nice touch. We booked a room with private bath but got upgraded to a cabin which was a pleasant surprise. Although the drive up to the cabin is bit steep for our van :) Nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay even just for the night and looking forward to come back.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. however our bed had tons of hairs and seemed like they had not been washed from the previous client. Also, room is extremely small. You have to also share bathroom and restroom which is awful if you have to use the bathroom in the night. We also couldn’t sleep- beds are super hard and we kept hearing little mice in our room. The walls are super thin you can hear your neighbors snoring wtc. Location is great.

Nice older property. Had a few issues during the night. First i was shocked by the heater when attempting to turn it up, the toilet would clog and would not flush and had a few visitors (RATS) attempt to enter the room around midnight and 0300. Other than that the staff was extremely nice and the area around is beautiful.

The property really is beautiful and idyllic and so the hotel should be great, but its not. If you arrive at night, its pitch dark, not one light identifies the lodge or its entrance. It's not that the lodge rooms have shared bath, thats ok. it's that the shared baths are dumpy, old, and one is completely unheated and freezing. The doors to the rooms have 2 locks and require two hands to exit or enter, it just needs updating. Also the "continental breakfast is inferior to a Hampton Inn" which is puzzling.

The lodge is in a great location, and the staff that works at the Tamarack Lodge is AMAZING. That being said, a few minus points are, the rooms that are not detached from the main building are extremely small. One can hear even people talking in the next room, the beds are uncomfortable to sleep in.

From check in to check out, the stay was excellent. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. The individual who checked me in took the time to go over everything I needed to know and even made me a reservation for dinner. They delivered a TV with DVDs to my room. Someone else helped get my big bag from my car to the cabin. I rented an e-bike, which I highly recommend, so that you can see the sights. The scenery was amazing and life changing. The only negative was the shower, the shower head was old and it sprayed everywhere.

Access to the cabins is unsafe given you most scale a slick / icy hillside to get to your cabin. Completely undoable for elderly which I am not. Staff unfriendly / not particularly helpful. It could be a cool experience but loses charm very quickly because basic hospitality is not considered.

Note: Depending on tume of year, you may have to walk up road to your cabin with your luggage as (streets) to each cabin may still be closed due to snow. Not a complaint, just know before you go is all. 5 stars for location and staff.
