Historical Setting
Northside School Bed & Breakfast operates in a renovated school building in Bonners Ferry and offers 10 classroom-themed rooms, a heated outdoor pool, and a year-round hot tub. The owners share engaging stories about the school's history and the property's transformation into a family-run bed and breakfast. Guests meet in communal spaces around the outdoor fireplace, picnic area, and sun terrace.
Rooms
Each guest room is tied to a school subject, including the Chemistry Room with the original periodic chart and chalkboard and the Principal's Office with downtown views.

Dining
Breakfast is served in a communal dining room at Northside School Bed & Breakfast and includes homemade dishes such as waffles, sausage quiche, and cinnamon rolls. The owners accommodate dietary restrictions and provide special diet menus, as well as a kid-friendly buffet and fresh fruit. Guests can buy homemade jam and candles, and the kitchen packs breakfast-to-go for early departures.
