Located on the shore of Lake Pend Oreille and framed by the Selkirk, Cabinet, and Bitterroot mountain ranges, The Bridge at Sandpoint offers an assisted living experience shaped by natural beauty and thoughtful care. This peaceful lakeside setting supports a comfortable, home-like environment for seniors.

The campus features professionally landscaped walking paths, inviting gazebos, and multiple lounging areas, making it easy to enjoy Sandpoint’s natural surroundings.


A significant benefit of choosing The Bridge is its continuum-of-care model.

Families appreciate knowing their loved ones can access additional support without leaving campus,” says Holden.
