Schweitzer, nestled in a small town, had great terrain, no lift lines. We were the only ones on the slopes on some of the runs. More

Amazing views from the ski hill. Mostly great conditions. Directions for parking were difficult at best. Really VERY confusing. Then, in going to meet someone for lunch, was going to cost $15 to park ... for a couple hours ! They really need to consider a better method.

My girlfriend and I went for a ski vacation to Schweitzer and we were both impressed in every way! The Selkirk lodge was beautiful and extremely convenient for everything. They had it all! Skiing was fantastic and the outback area was great fun for skiing, meeting locals, other travelers and eating the food. Not to mention the great tree skiing! More

We spend our weekends here in the winter and love it. You can ski all weekend and never ski the same run twice if you don't want to. They have a smaller village area around the main lodge with different restaurants and bars. The tubing hill is a lot of fun. Just can't say enough about it. More
