Love this hotel and the staff. We come back every year to ski Schweitzer Mt and we always stay here. Great breakfast, beds, hot tub/pool and staff are always wonderful. With Sweet Lou's restaraunt in the parking lot this place is a slam dunk!

Lovely stay, staff is so friendly and helpful. Room and community spaces were clean, nice pool and hot tub, warm cookies, hot chocolate, nice breakfast and great location. Only wish is that the single use items they provide, (cups, table wear, shampoo/conditioner), were replaced with more eco friendly versions.

Very nice, large suites. Easy walk to Sweet Lou's restaurant. The only negative is that there are barely enough parking spots.
