Home Of The Floating Green
The Coeur d'Alene Resort Golf Course is best known for the famous 14th hole — The Floating Green. The course describes it as the first and only floating, movable island golf green, weighing approximately 2,200 tons and changing position by underwater cable system. Depending on the day and tee location, the hole can play from roughly 90 yards to 220 yards.
The course offers a polished resort-style experience with scenic views, a lakefront setting, bentgrass fairways, and a memorable layout designed around Lake Coeur d'Alene, Fernan Creek, wooded areas, and rolling North Idaho terrain — a 6,803-yard, par-71 course with lake views from nearly every hole.
For golfers staying at Budget Saver Motel, this is one of the closest major attractions in Coeur d'Alene and a strong reason to plan a golf-focused getaway.
