Schweitzer Mountain Resort, Sandpoint

I love this hotel. We selected this because it claimed to be the only ski in/ski out hotel at Schweitzer. While it is the closest hotel to the mountain, it is located right on the slopes, its not actually ski in/ski out because there is no "back" door access, and you have to go right through the village. The rooms were very comfortable and spacious. The furniture in our room was pine and very nice. I found the room much more comfortable than many more expensive hotels, but not as elegant as the traditional ultra luxury brands. The only major complaint I have is that when booking we were assured that there would be food available when we arrived and that they would keep the pool and hot tubs open until midnight for us. We arrived much earlier than expected but found nothing to eat in the whole village other than microwave burritos and the pool was closed. No matter, we snuck outside and enjoyed the hot tub anyway. Speaking of the pool and hot tubs, they are built into the side of the hill, and are free from gawkers in other properties; flawlessly executed!
