Coeur d’Alene sits on the shores of the beautiful 30 mile Lake Coeur d’Alene. The lake offers abundant recreational opportunities right in the heart of a vibrant, beautiful downtown. Take a stroll along the 2 mile Tubbs Hill Trail, stroll through quaint shops or just relax on the sandy beaches of Coeur d’Alene City Park.
