The Coeur d'Alene Resort in Idaho

Minutes from Spokane

By Susan Breslow Sardone, About.com

Located in Northern Idaho, 30 miles east of Spokane, The Coeur d'Alene Resort was built overlooking one of the world's most beautiful lakes and the forested mountains beyond.

Readers of Conde Nast Traveler Magazine have selected it as one of America's top mainland resorts.

Located on beautiful Lake Coeur d'Alene, it offers four seasons activities.

The property's Silver Mountain ski resort has 50 runs carved from its 1,500 acres of powdery terrain. There are four chair lifts as well as a 3.1-mile-long gondola. Two lodges cater to both cross-country and downhill skiers. Nearby Schweitzer Mountain also challenges with its varied terrain. Both mountain tops stretch taller than 6,000 feet. Ski packages include breakfast and round-trip bus transportation.

The 18-story Lake Tower contains 173 extra-large rooms with a lake or mountain view. Beverly's, on the seventh floor, was recently honored as one the country's top restaurants by Distinguished Restaurants of North America.
