Tamarisk is not just a complex—those who live there will be quick to tell you that it is a bona fide community. A short drive south of Creekside, Tamarisk comprises of ten buildings along the shores of Alta Lake. Not only does the complex provide direct lake access, but it also has canoe and kayak storage, bike storage, tennis courts, an outdoor pool, a barbecue area and an on-site caretaker to manage the grounds.

Tamarisk was built in the seventies, but updates to the roof, parking area, etc. have been made. Units vary greatly in appearance, from original state (right down to orange shag carpeting and wood paneled walls) to some very nicely renovated units.

Locals love the strong sense of community, and weekend warriors like that the complex is located south of the Village, cutting off a significant amount of the Friday night/Sunday evening traffic.

Long term rentals are permitted here.
