Tamarack Resort has begun restoration of its 18-hole championship golf course, Osprey Meadows. The driving range is expected to open to the public later this summer with the grand opening of the course planned for summer 2023.
While the overall layout of the course – with its mountain, meadow and lake views – remains, Tamarack and the original course architects from RTJ II have reimagined several holes to improve overall playability. Additionally, the course will feature a unique 19th, aka “gambler’s,” hole — a par-3 hole played at the end of the round to settle friendly wagers among players.
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to reinvigorate the award-winning Osprey Meadows Golf Course at Tamarack,” said world-renowned golf course architect Robert Trent Jones Jr. “The confidence that the Tamarack ownership has exhibited in the long-term value of this unique golf experience is unprecedented. We appreciate their vision and commitment!”
Tamarack has partnered with industry-leading Landscapes Unlimited to do the renovation of its course. In its 46-year history, Landscapes Unlimited has built or renovated more than 2,250 golf courses. Tamarack’s Osprey Meadows is number 2,272.
“This is another historic moment at Tamarack. It’s not often that you get a second chance to make a first impression, but we have that rare opportunity with the return of Osprey Meadows,” said Tamarack President Scott Turlington.
Osprey Meadows opened to acclaim in 2005 and was in operation through the 2015 season. During that time, it racked up recognition from GOLF Magazine (Top 10 New Courses, Top 100 Courses), Golf Digest (#1 Public Course in the U.S.) and Golfweek (Top 100 Resort Courses) as well as plaudits from Sports Illustrated and Travel + Leisure Golf.
