The flagship lakefront resort with 338 rooms, on-site golf, a full-service spa, and direct access to the floating green.
The Coeur d'Alene Resort is the property that defines the destination. It occupies a position on the lake's northern shore that provides water views from the majority of its 338 rooms and suites, and the golf course, including the famous floating green on the par-3 14th, is part of the same complex. The resort operates at a scale that creates self-sufficiency for guests who prefer not to leave the property: multiple restaurants and bars, a full-service spa overlooking the lake, an infinity pool that appears to merge with the lake surface, a private beach, and a marina that serves as the departure point for narrated lake cruises and scenic boat tours throughout the season.
For golf-focused visitors, the on-site Scott Miller design eliminates the morning drive that characterizes most golf trips. The first tee is a short walk from the lobby, and the mandatory forecaddie service begins at the practice area. Green fees range from $140 in April to $290 at peak in July and August, with the forecaddie included. The resort's concierge can arrange tee times at Circling Raven, The Idaho Club, and other regional courses, handling the logistics of a multi-course trip from a single base. Avondale Golf Club in Hayden Lake sits just 15 minutes away for an affordable afternoon round.
The nightly rate of $250 to $500 places the resort at the top of the local market, and the pricing reflects the lakefront position, the breadth of amenities, and the integration with the golf course. EV charging stations on the property accommodate the growing share of travellers arriving by electric vehicle from Spokane International Airport, a 45-minute drive west. For travelling companions, the spa, the lake activities, and the walkable proximity to downtown Sherman Avenue provide a full itinerary without requiring a car. Tubbs Hill, a 120-acre nature preserve with hiking trails and swimming beaches, is accessible on foot from the resort grounds. The property functions as the natural anchor for any trip that includes the Resort golf course, and it is the accommodation most visitors picture when they think of Coeur d'Alene as a golf destination.
