It was so good to see all young staff. They were all so great! Breakfast was perfect for us. Only “complaint” is our bathroom was a little dirty & bathtub was extremely slippery! We were lucky enough to go on a day with some amazing deals! We can’t wait to come back with the rest of our family.

What are some of the general tips for travelers to Northern Idaho during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 outbreak has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't dampened our eagerness for exploring. Here are some tips on how to deal with travel's new challenges:
  • Look into the restrictions and rules in both your destination and origin. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you book.
  • When you pass through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a mask may be denied entry or boarding.
  • To avoid cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA agent.
  • You can take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray screening.
  • To reduce handling during the screening process, place items such as your phone, coins and keys into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
