Another travel question-

[crazycanuck]

Hey there,

Just wondering about Sandpoint Idaho..Is it a town worth stopping in for a night? We're just planning the next portion of our trip & are playing with google directions..I don't have any travel books for the US & thought i'd ask here...

If anyone's ever stopped there & can suggest a place NOT to stay that would be cool. I'll keep searching & pondering what route to take.

Any other ideas?

Tanks!

Yup, it's a good place for stopping for a day or two. There's probably more to see and do than I remember. It was an overnight stop on a week long bike tour we did a couple years ago. Quaint town, with lots of shops, neat downtown area, and home to Coldwater Creek main store and corporate office. That alone is worth spending a few hours in, if you like shopping for clothing bargains :-) If you're not familiar, check out www.coldwatercreek.com - it's my favorite clothing store

I can't recommend where to stay or not stay, we camped ovenight in a school field. I just remember thinking it would be nice to come back a spend a few days in the area.

I can't recommended a hotel as it's a day trip for me,** but when hubby had a job site there he'd stay at Connie's Motor Inn on the main drag.

It's a cute little town undergoing typical resort town growing pains. The city beach is a must-do. The view is awesome and the sand is great. They have a dog park near by. The cold water creek outlet is to die for, there's great ice cream shops on the main shopping drag, restaurants are average.

But it's a beautiful community. Not sure where you are going from or going to, but sure, it would be a great stop.
