The way America was-northern Idaho-the true "gem of the mountains". Add quality to your life by selecting northern Idaho as your next vacation destination.
Four seasons, fresh air, clean water, un-crowded-this is the magnet that draws people to our area. St. Maries is amidst this paradise-cradled within the arms of majestic mountains, surrounded by lakes and rivers and towering forests, and bordered by the fertile Palouse farming area. Winter snow and the smell of wood smoke, summer days and the sound of gentle breezes through the pines-every where you turn satisfies a hidden yearning. Add to that the best outdoor recreation opportunities in America, and you'll begin to realize why we cherish this little slice of heaven called home amidst the pines, firs and pungent cedars.
Our recreational offerings run the entire gamut-from leisurely walks along the tranquil waters of the St. Joe River, to the nature walks at nearby Heyburn Park, or the more challenging Marble Creek walking trail system. Family bicycles rides along the Hiawatha Rail Trail. Cruise boat rides from Heyburn Park or inner-tube floats down the Shadowy St. Joe or St. Maries River. Any age, any interest-Enjoy! There's summer fishing and fall hunting-one of America's largest elk herd resides nearby. Duck, turkey, pheasant, grouse and geese abound for the bird hunter. Add to this the hundreds of miles of accessble groomed snow mobile trails-and yu have a full year. Join the many bird watchers from throughout the northwest who find our area a source of satisfaction for their hobby.
White swan, blue heron, osprey and eagle-The nations largest concentration of nesting birds is located seven miles away. Or you can just sit on the patio and watch the hummingbirds feed. the metropolitan area of Spokane-Coeur d'Alene is less than an hour drive away from St. Maries.
