Only a Few Days Left in June! Now Booking September in Coeur d'Alene

The Narrows Cottage is located on the channel that connects 2 lakes.  The channel is approximately ½ mile long; while the upper lake is approximately 1 ½ miles long and ¾ mile wide, and the lower lake is approximately 2 ½ miles long and ½ mile wide.  The lakes are ideal for boating, skiing, tubing, and all water sports.  The channel is a peaceful setting with abundant wildlife such as ducks, mink, chipmunks, blue jays, muskrat, osprey, eagles, and heron.  There is a five mile per hour no wake zone on the channel which also contributes to the peaceful setting.  Bring your boat or kayak and enjoy the water, or use the rowboat and canoe provided.  Our dock and beach are right on the channel.
