Explore North IdahoLife on Lake Coeur d'Alene
Stretching 25 miles through the Idaho Panhandle, Lake Coeur d'Alene is consistently ranked among the most beautiful lakes in the world. Formed during the last Ice Age and framed by the Coeur d'Alene National Forest, its crystal-clear waters are 30,000 acres of four-season paradise.
Summer brings boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, and swimming from sandy beaches. Fall transforms the surrounding forest into a mosaic of gold, amber, and crimson — and draws thousands of bald eagles to the lake's shores. Winter ushers in world-class skiing at Silver Mountain and snowshoeing through the Panhandle National Forest. Spring? Wildflowers, fishing, and some of the cleanest mountain air you'll ever breathe.
Waterfront property on Lake CDA is among the most sought-after real estate in the Pacific Northwest. Whether you're looking for a private dock on a quiet cove, a downtown condo with lake views, or a sprawling lakefront estate — I know this lake and I know this market.
Where Mountains Meet the Lake
The floating golf green at the Coeur d'Alene Resort — one of the most iconic images in American golf — is just one of the experiences waiting for North Idaho residents.

More Than a Home — a Way of Life
People don't just move to North Idaho. They fall in love with it. Here's why.
World-Class Waterways
Lake Coeur d'Alene, Hayden Lake, Lake Pend Oreille, and Spirit Lake offer 100+ miles of recreational shoreline. Boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing are a way of life — not a vacation activity.
Four-Season Recreation
Silver Mountain Resort, Schweitzer, and Lookout Pass deliver world-class skiing. Summer trails cover five million acres of Panhandle National Forest. Hiking, biking, fishing, and camping are in your backyard.
Vibrant Downtown CDA
From the Art Spirit Gallery to the national award-winning retailer Mix It Up, Sherman Avenue is a MUST-SEE destination. Farmers markets, Car-d-Alene, craft breweries, concerts, and lakeside dining reflect a thriving community.
Quality Schools & NIC
Kootenai County boasts strong public schools and North Idaho College on the lake's edge. The region continues to attract families seeking a high quality of life at a fraction of coastal prices.
Lower-than-most State Income Tax
Idaho is one of the most financially attractive relocation destinations for remote workers and retirees.
Connected & Accessible
Spokane International Airport is 30 minutes away with direct flights to major hubs. Highway access makes Seattle (5 hrs), Portland (6 hrs), and Glacier National Park (3 hrs) easy road trips.
What My Clients Are Saying

"I've worked with agents all over the country and the local knowledge here is unmatched. We identified the right investment property quickly and the 1031 exchange guidance was spot-on. Highly recommend."
"From day one we knew we were in good hands. Patient, knowledgeable, and honest about every property. We got our Hayden Lake home for under asking price. This is the only broker we'll ever use in North Idaho."
