Luxurious Top 10

Luxury Awaits Along the Top Ten Drives of the Northern Rockies

Enjoy it all, unspoiled scenery and modern luxury!

The first settlers in the Northern Rockies were tough survivors. Traveling in wagons and on horseback, they faced unknown dangers while trying to carve out new lives and open the West. Today, much of the landscape is as majestic and rugged as it was 200 years ago. Explore this stunning terrain while hiking, camping, fishing, or watching wildlife.

Yet amidst all this wild beauty, you can still adventure in luxury and comfort. Many of our lodging partners offer first-class dining, spas, and golf courses – artfully combining the rustic Western spirit with the best modern amenities.

One fine destination is the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch . Nestled in the Sawtooth Mountains – surrounded by snowcapped peaks and the SalmonRiver – this upscale ranch offers high alpine adventure and backcountry relaxation. By day, enjoy fishing, whitewater rafting, horseback riding, and hiking. In the evening, relax to soothing guitar strains during a “porch-side” cocktail hour. Unwind in a natural hot springs pool. Or savor a great meal made even better with breathtaking mountain vistas.

For a serene, romantic atmosphere, visit the Hearthstone Lodge in Kamiah, Idaho. Overlooking the Clearwater River, this intimate lodge is nestled on 29 acres of pine forest – which Lewis and Clark called "Paradise Valley." Brimming with antique decorations, the Hearthstone Lodge features Jacuzzi tubs for two, forest and river views, and delicious breakfasts from our in-town bakery. It’s also conveniently located along the Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail, the Nez Perce National Historic Trail, and the Northwest Passage Scenic Byway.

These are only two of our numerous lodging partners and advertisers. Visit this website often to learn about the most unique accommodations in the Northern Rockies – as well as the best deals for your travel budget.
