About this property
Tamarack Estate Lodge at Tamarack Resort
Welcome to Tamarack Estate Lodge, a luxury ski-in/ski-out retreat in the heart of Tamarack Resort. Just steps from the Buttercup lift, this custom alpine estate offers breathtaking views, refined mountain design, and seamless access to world-class skiing, hiking, and year-round adventure. Blending comfort, elegance, and the spirit of the outdoors, it’s the perfect destination for unforgettable alpine getaways.
Designed for those who expect both adventure and elegance, Tamarack Estate Lodge rises across three luxurious levels, each offering its own unique experience.
Lower Level
The lower level was created for entertainment and relaxation, featuring a spacious lounge with radiant heated floors, a cozy fireplace, and wet bar. This versatile space includes a dedicated game room and bonus room that can easily serve as a home theater, office, or even a fifth bedroom—perfect for large groups or multi-family stays.
Main Level
The heart of the home sits on the main level, where soaring ceilings frame a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Here you’ll find the grand living room, a chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances, and an elegant dining area designed for unforgettable gatherings. Natural hardwood floors, granite finishes, and custom lighting create a refined alpine ambiance, while a convenient en-suite bedroom on this level offers easy access and comfort.
Upper Level
Upstairs, the rest of the en-suite bedrooms await, each thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and privacy. With panoramic mountain views from nearly every window, this level embodies the lodge’s commitment to both luxury and connection to nature.
Guest Apartment
Connected by a covered walkway, the 1,000 sq. ft. private apartment above the heated three-car garage provides a retreat of its own. Complete with a spacious living room, dining area, full kitchen, cozy fireplace, and private laundry, it’s ideal for extended family, friends, or staff who desire privacy while remaining close to the main residence.
Luxury Meets Adventure
Ski enthusiasts will love the direct ski-in/ski-out access with a groomed trail just steps away, allowing you to start and end your day on the slopes without ever needing to drive. In every season, Tamarack Estate Lodge is positioned to embrace adventure—world-class skiing, mountain biking, hiking, and lake activities are all at your doorstep.
After a day outdoors, return to the lodge’s warm glow, multiple fireplaces, and inviting gathering spaces. With wet bars on both levels, a Smart Home AV system, and a new hot tub arriving Spring 2025, the estate offers the perfect balance of mountain excitement and refined relaxation.
