Welcome to 18 Rock Creek Court located in beautiful Tamarack Resort!

We are so happy that you decided to stay here and we want to make sure that you enjoy your stay, so here is some information to help you with all the available amenities of the cottage.

SOME EXCITING NEWS FOR OUR GUESTS: We are in the middle of a major "refresh" of the cottage to make your future stays even more comfortable and enjoyable.

To date we have replaced all the wood flooring and carpeting in the cottage, we repainted the entire interior of the cottage and installed recessed lighting in the living room to brighten things up.

We are in the process of replacing all the furniture in the kitchen and living room; however, due to COVID-19 most of our furniture deliveries had significant delays and won't be delivered until August or September of 2021.

Internet

Our cottage offers high-speed internet access via our wireless network.

In order to connect to our wireless network please use the "WIFI" information provided in the welcome packet that you received when you checked in and obtained your key card(s).

Telephone

The telephone located next to the fireplace is a special "resort" telephone that gives you instant access to all the available amenities at Tamarack Resort.

NOTE: Please be aware that you are not able to make outbound calls outside of Tamarack Resort using the "resort" phone.

Thermostat

Please be aware that this cottage does not have air-conditioning, but luckily this is only an issue for a few weeks during the year. During this time the best way to keep the cottage cool is to open the windows and sliding doors in the evening to cool things down, and then in the morning shut all the doors, windows and close the blinds before it gets warm.

The cottage has one thermostat that is located at the base of the staircase, and it controls the heating system and the fan.

Quick Overview

• The main controls are located on the right side of the thermostat

  • Press the "Hold" button to disable the temperature schedule

  • Press the "Up" button to increase the target temperature

  • Press the "Down" button to decrease the target temperature

The "nitty-gritty" details

• The two big buttons located on the right hand side of the thermostat control the target temperature.

  • Pressing the "Up" button will increase the target temperature

  • Pressing the "Down" button will decrease the target temperature

• The "Hold" button located on the right hand side of the thermostat bypasses the temperature schedule.

  • By default the temperature schedule is disabled and the target temperature is held indefinitely

  • If the temperature schedule is disabled then pressing the "Hold" button will not do anything

  • If the temperature schedule is active then pressing the "Hold" button will disable the temperature schedule and hold the thermostat at the target temperature indefinitely

• The four small buttons located the bottom of the thermostat have multiple purposes, based on the menu that is displayed on the display

  • You should not have to press any of these buttons

  • The first button will normally "Cancel" the "Hold" mode, or allow you to configure the temperature schedule

    • There is no need to cancel the "Hold" mode or reconfigure the temperature schedule

  • The second button normally sets the "Fan" mode. (Desired mode is "Auto")

  • The third button normally sets the "System" mode. (Desired mode is "Heat")

    • Please remember that this cottage does not have A/C, so the "Cool" mode does not work.

  • The fourth button normally takes you to to the "More" menu. (There is no need to ever go to the "More" menu)

Fireplace

The fireplace is gas-powered so please do not attempt to burn wood or anything else.

The fireplace is controlled via a switch that is located on the wall above the mantel on the right side of the fireplace.

Instructions

• The controls are located on the right-hand side of the hot tub
