Mountain Chalet Getaway: Boutique hotel welcomes outdoorsy vacationers
Schweitzer Mountain Resort now offers more hotel accommodations with Humbird, a 31-unit boutique hotel resembling a modern-day ski lodge. The main lobby features expansive windows showcasing the great outdoors; the warmth of timber interiors; and inviting restaurant space. The third floor offers a rooftop deck and hot tub.
DCI designed the mass timber structural system featured throughout the building, especially in the main lobby. Even the separate two-story ski hut is built out of cross laminated timber and glulam beams.

I’ve always appreciated the ‘work hard/play hard’ mentality at DCI, the team approach to determining innovative and cost-effective design and helping our clients achieve successful projects. I also cherish the many friendships that I’ve been so lucky to find with our clients, employees, and other consultants within the construction industry.”
