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.

The pool and hot tub didn’t work because they had water burst, no fault at their own, it’s just be fun to have a hot tub after skiing all day

Great place to stay! Warm and friendly welcome upon our arrival. Everything about the hotel was super clean and well kept. The queen beds seemed smaller than usual. Most of the breakfast was average, but better than most places. Didn't get a chance to use the pool, but I'm sure it would have been great! Would definitely return again!

The person working the desk was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was surprisingly good (waffles, eggs, potatoes, oatmeal, blueberry, ...). Our room was clean and quiet and beds comfortable. The rooms facing the back have nice view of a meadow lined with conifers. We even saw several deer grazing.

We were so blessed by our stay at the Ponderay Mountain Lodge. Everything was immaculate and we had everything we needed when we needed it. Comfortable beds and spacious rooms, an amazing breakfast buffet attended by the nicest lady. The true excellence of the Lodge is in the kindness of its people. Marie and Kathy, you are angels! I so hope we can come back to see you all and enjoy the beauty of Ponderay at our leisure- thank you for making our stay so lovely and for being so ready to help. Ten stars!

Perfect stop while traveling through area. Walkable distance from restaurants and shops. Short drive to enjoy the lake and take a hike without having to go into downtown Sandpoint. Though, Sandpoint is very cute and worth a visit.

Room temperature was hot. When lowering thermostat on unit, unit still did not come on. Appeared as if you didn't really have any control over temperature or fan. Some items on breakfast buffet were cold that should have been hot.

Large and comfortable rooms. The A/C worked great. Very handy to have a restaurant/bar within walking distance after a long days drive. Will be nice when the road construction is finished.
