La Rive, French for “the river,” is the perfect name for the luxurious spa at Northern Quest Resort & Casino, near Spokane, Washington. The Kalispel Tribe of Indians was called the “people of the river,” and the 14,000-square-foot spa’s construction and design, lushly accented by the abundant use of natural materials like native stone, perfectly capture the flowing curves of a river’s path.
Products, services and treatments at La Rive Spa reflect a commitment to nature and the healing elements of native traditions, with an emphasis on the use of gentle organic products, essential oils and tranquil scents.
