We stayed here for one night as a stopover on our way home. We were travelling with our two small dogs and were placed in a room on the main floor near the green area for the dogs which was much appreciated. Parking was great: we were able to park near the door to our room and dog area. Our room was clean and very quiet (we are light sleepers) The breakfast provided was awesome: I really appreciated the helathy options! We will definately stop here again on our way South.

Really great breakfast. Dining area inviting, comfortable and clean. Staff very kind and helpful. Rooms clean and maintained. No weird smells from cleaners or deodorizers that you often smell at other hotels. Highly recommend. We won't stay anywhere else when we're in the area.

Ski Trip
Good breakfast, easy drive up the hill (20 min) to Schweitzer. There is also a free shuttle at the base of Schweitzer every 30 min, which is a 5 min drive away. Hot tub and pool were good for the kids. About what you'd expect for the BW. There is one restaurant next door but otherwise you need to get in your car for food. The breakfast lounge is open 24/7 so a good place to eat or get some work done.
