This is a great vacation home on beautiful Lake Coeur d'Alene. This 3 bedroom home is about 40 minutes from Coeur D'Alene, ID and about 45 minutes from the Spokane, WA airport. Travel on nicely paved roads through beautiful and rolling hills of grain and forests, with calendar-picture views of the distant mountains. Nearby is the Circling Raven Golf Course (featured in Golf Magazine) with the adjoining Coeur d'Alene Casino and its restaurants. (They have a wonderful seafood buffet). Enjoy the private community beach and walk to the playground and boat slips or fish off the dock at this scenic get away.
The 3 bedroom home is split into 2 levels and has an upper level with a completely furnished open kitchen/eating area/living room, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. Sliding glass doors lead onto a spacious deck overlooking a magnificent view of the lake, mountains and forests. The lower level consists of a large family/recreation room with a futon, bedroom and bath/laundry room. It also has sliding glass doors onto a patio with a double swing and chairs to enjoy the view. Would be great for 2 couples with children. A Wellness Center in Plummer has pools, fitness equipment and a track among other things. The brand new Kroc Center opened last month in Coeur D' Alene. It has fitness equipment,pools, a water slide and many other features. At $5.00/person/day it's well worth investigating.
The cabin has many entertainment ammenities for all ages such as a volleyball/badminton set,croquet set,adult and children's books, puzzles, board games,foosball table which includes a variety of games, cards, dominoes, swim and beach toys.
Walk down the hill and pick up the morning paper, have your coffee on the deck. Watch and listen to the birds and enjoy the sun rising over the sparkling lake. If you are lucky you may spot wild turkeys, deer and quail walking around the area. Sometimes hawks and eagles can be spotted overhead, while Canada geese, ducks and squirrels and woodland birds are a common sight.
Bring your own watercraft or rent one at Harrison. With advance reservation a boat slip can be made available for you. Down the hill you will find our own private community park with a boat ramp, kiddie beach and swim area, a shady picnic table area, volleyball net, horseshoe pit, swings and fire pit. It's about a 10 minute walk, but bring the car for the little ones as there is a long hill
For older and more accomplished swimmers there is a sunning and swimming dock past the boat slips. Kids and adults enjoy fishing off the docks. You will need a valid ID state fishing license if you are over 13 yrs old, which you can get in Plummer or CDA. South of Cave Bay a tribal license is also required.
A short drive to Coeur D' Alene will provide you with many things to see and do. There are restaurants, coffeehouses, movies, bowling, miniature and regular golf courses and a waterpark. There are live concerts and theatre also. Be sure to visit Figpickles toy store on Sherman St with its unusual toys and kiddie merry-go-round. Nearby is City Park with its wonderful castle playground and public beach. You can get a seaplane ride, ferryboat excursion, and do some parasailing. There are also personal watercraft and paddleboat rentals available. And, of course, there is the new Kroc Community center with such a variety of things to do.
There are many more things to see and do in the area. Silverwood Amusement Park has roller coasters and other rides. There are Silver and Gold mine tours and museums in Wallace- about an hour's drive east on Route 90. Spokane, with it's Imax theater, Riverfront Park, and great shopping and restaurants is another wonderful destination and only about 45 minutes away.
At the cabin, a big book of information on things to do and see is available for your planning pleasure.
