Looking for cool spring break ideas? When you explore areas away from the snow and sun, you can find some great deals.

In the Pacfic Northwest, for instance, the Salish Lodge & Spa is offering a 25% off discount for weeknight stays in March and April. This 89-room hotel—a half hour outside Seattle, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains and overlooking lush Snoqualmie Falls—is a AAA Four Diamond winner that's been on Conde Nast Traveler's Gold List and Travel+Leisure's 500 World's Best Hotels. Even if March and April aren't terribly sunny and warm here yet, the Salish has a woodsy, sit-by-the fireplace splendor. Indeed, all rooms come with in-room fireplaces, as well as jetted tubs and perks such as a choice of six pillows.  And when you're tired of making s'mores, you’ll have good hiking nearby.

When we checked March weeknight dates, we found a room with two double beds for $167 a night, down from $222—indeed a tidy 25% discount. For a little more—$189 a night (down from $252)  you can also get a river view. Can't break away during the week? The lodge offers a 15% disocunt for weekend dates, too, though when we looked for those, none were available. Otherwise, there’s only one catch: The rates must be pre-paid and are non-refundable.

The offer is good for stays between March 1  and April 30, and you must book by February 12. Use promotion code BNS_25 when cooking online, or mention the discount when calling 800/2SALISH (800/272-5474).
