This review is for Easter Brunch in the Caribou room. The wedding pictures of the Caribou room online made everything look fabulous so we decided to book brunch for 5 of us. We sure were disappointed. The big picture windows had a lovely view, but that was about it. For $45 there wasnt even staff offering more coffee for the table. The buffet was in the entry (we had to look for it). We were hoping for something more special. While I hope the new owners bring in the service and experience that we we are used to receiving at their other ski hills, I believe the area is in for a rude awakening for an influx of people to the area as they pump more money into the hill. And we had to pay $25 per car to park. I dont mind paying for an event but all in all - the whole experience wasnt worth it.

Holy smokes. If they could charge for breathing their air they would.

Spent a few hours out on ORV trails on Schweitzer. What a beautiful day. We really had a blast and to the parking lot boys, thank you for your sacrifice on a job that both highly dangerous and extremely demanding. Your job keeps everyone in line but most of all, if not for your dedication to safety and responsibility, we hold it all too you. You guys really are awesome. Thank you.

A great ski resort for families, intermediate, and advanced skiiers. Largest ski resort in all of Idaho and Washington. Well known for its variety of terrain including some black diamonds with trees. More of a small-resort feel, though. On weekdays you'll never see a long lift line here. In the other three seasons, amazing hiking with views of Lake Pend Oreille. Lots of huckleberry bushes, lupine, and bear grass. Zip line and mountain biking in summer. Lots of new dining options including two food/drink options at the summit. Parking can be an issue, more parking lots are coming. Best food is at the Sky House & Chimney Rock (which has a new chef and manager for the 23/24 season). Highly recommend parking at the bottom and taking the free shuttle if you aren't staying on the mountain overnight.
