Golf Tournament at Coeur d'Alene


One of the best-known icons in golf: the Famous 14th Hole at The Coeur d’Alene Resort Golf Course—The Floating Green.

There’s nothing ordinary about a round of golf at The Coeur d’Alene Resort Golf Course. Golfers arrive in a custom, mahogany lake shuttle and are greeted by a personal forecaddie for each group. The breathtaking lake views from nearly every hole ease the tension of the formidable challenge presented by the floating green.

The experts at Golf Digest, Golf Magazine and Conde Nast Traveler agree: this is one of the world’s most memorable golf experiences anywhere. Discover what makes The Coeur d’Alene Resort Golf Course a golf experience like no other.

The golf fee is $225 per person, which includes the green fees, cart and a boxed lunch.

The two-deck boat is climate-controlled and has picture windows, a sound system, and full bar service, which help create a wonderful experience on the water. Lake Coeur d’Alene is known as the Playground of the Pacific Northwest for its scenic beauty, and the rail of a cruise boat is the best place to enjoy it .

The cruise fee is $200 per person, which includes a
