Place to nap between Post Falls ID and St Regis Mt?

We're making the haul from Seattle area to the East side of Glacier Nat Park. I'd like to find a place to pull off and sleep for 5 or so hours (would be late night early morning) while towing a 30' trailer.

I see a walmart, flying J and rest area in post falls. All are perfect but i was hoping to get an hour or so further.

I see the rest area at mile post 4 in MT on 90, but worry it could be full or they consider sleeping in my trailer "camping" and kick us out.

Any other or better options anyone know of between post falls and st regis?

    Yah, they do, but I wouldn't advise the buffet. The food all tasted kinda stale to me. The chicken caesar was great!

    Perfect. That's the plan now.

    Unless it's miserably hot and we want the AC I have no need to plug in. Was planning on just finding a mostly level spot and jumping in the bed. Then hitting the road first thing in the AM. but if they have breakfast...

    Thanks all, this is huge help!

    Plenty of room at 50000 Silver Dallar Bar, you weren't needing hoookup, right? Fun place to look around even if you don't buy anything. Restaurant. Easy fix for your situation.

    Yes they do have Free RV sites, but afraid electric didn't serve all of them. And what service there was looked very old and not well-maintained. So before heading there expecting run be running 2 airs (or even one)..be careful!

    Yes.. lots of truck parking both at the 'casino' (if you can call it that) and west of the gas station.

    RV spots in rear behind the hotel. Nice trees, smells good, fairly quiet.

    Looks perfect. Looking at bing's map it looks like they have a ton of long parking in front along the road and then some spots in the trees behind (or is that something else?)? Where are the electric sites. in back?
