TIPS FOR VISITING COEUR D’ALENE

  • Silverwood amusement park could be considered  a hidden gem in the Pacific Northwest. It is also only about 30 minutes north of Coeur d’Alene.
  • If you are visiting Silverwood and want to maximize your time, you can arrive early to the theme park before opening time and wait just inside for the park to open. This means that you can go right to a ride rather than waiting in line to get through the turnstile.
  • Silverwood sells reusable water bottles and you get free refills all day long.
  • The waterpark has lockers that you can rent for the day for 10 dollars and you can go in and out throughout the day. You should also think about bringing a pair of cheap flip flops to leave at the bottom of the slides. Make sure that these are extras not ones that you wore to the park in case the get lost or stolen. The park also offers towels that you can rent but it may just be easier if you bring your own to the park.
  • La Quinta Inn & Suites is a really affordable option to stay. They have spacious rooms, an indoor pool and free breakfast.
  • When you are planning when to go to Coeur d’Alene, make sure to check out when the Iron Man Marathon is going on because getting a room can get pretty expensive during that time. They can also sell out quickly.
  • Outside of the theme park, the lake is a great way to spend an afternoon. You can go kayaking, rent jet skis, go on a float plane trip and more.
  • If you are into biking at all; there is a gorgeous paved bike trail in Coeur d’Alene that will take you along part of the lake.
  • Schweitzer Mountain offers a lot of different outdoor snow activities. Silver Mountain is more of a challenging mountain that doesn’t have too many beginner runs, but they do offer activities like snowshoeing through the woods.
