Worldmark Arrow Point

Situated on "one of the five most beautiful lakes in the world," according to National Geographic, Coeur d’Alene is the very picture of a thriving lakeside community. It is the gateway to 135 miles of shoreline and all the boating, fishing, waterskiing and swimming that go with it. Grab a sno cone and hit the beach. Try parasailing, paddle boats or kayaking. Stroll along the waterfront promenade—the world’s longest floating boardwalk—or tour Independence Point on a luxurious lake cruise. Back on land, bike the picturesque Route of the Hiawatha, ride a gondola lift up to Silver Mountain’s world-class skiing, or pay a visit to the city’s old military post, Fort Sherman. Whatever your pleasure, Coeur d’Alene captures the essence of the Northwest.
