Photo of Northside School B&B

“Quaint B&B in Bonners Ferry. Individually-decorated, light and airy rooms with little touches giving a nod to its schoolhouse roots, yet with a fresh modern style. There's a seasonal outdoor pool & year round hot tub in the garden, and historic downtown is a short stroll away. Great value too!”

Hotel Review

Three generations live and work together and have certainly done their homework when it comes to making this renovated school building into a homely B&B. The school theme is carried throughout the property with each room named after a different classroom. For example, the Local History Room is decorated with items from the local community including heirlooms and old family pictures, plus a headboard made out of the old girls' bathroom door. Meanwhile, the Art Room features local and family art, ensuring it's a fun place to stay whatever your age. Just a short walk to downtown Bonners Ferry where you'll find charming shops, several restaurants and even a casino. Numerous waterfall hikes and strolls are within minutes of the property. It's just 30 minutes from the Canadian border and 45 minutes from great skiing at Schweitzer Mountain Resort. As part of the International Selkirk Loop you can experience the beauty of Idaho, Washington, and British Columbia on one continuous scenic drive by car, bicycle or motorcycle. A first class place to explore all the area has to offer.
