Amazing stay!!
Couldn't have picked a better place to stay for our ski trip up to Tamarack. Encore Cottage was exactly as advertised: well-appointed, immaculately clean, and even more beautiful than the pictures show. Really enjoyed the hot tub after skiing all day. The location is super close to everything the resort has to offer. Owners were communicative and quick to respond throughout our stay. Would definitely book again!

Great Stay at a Great Cottage!!
The Encore Cottage exceeded our expectations! We have stayed in Tamarack cottages from a variety of owners, but this cottage was by far one of our favorites. Very clean, well equipped, and the owners were a delight to work with. Thanks for the magnificent week we had at Tamarack Resort!!! We look forward to booking another trip here in the future.
