Uh, ahem... according to a recent article in the Seattle P-I, the Salish 
Lodge was used only for external shots of the Great Northern. The nearby 
Kiana Lodge (actually, I'm not sure if it's so nearby - it's in Poulsbo) 
was used for internal shots of the Great Northern. So if you want to stay 
in the same room as ol' Coop, that's where you gotta go... also, the 
beach scene in the pilot (when Laura's body was found) was filmed there.
