As soon as we arrived the people in front of us quickly got stuck because of the boulders that are placed everywhere. The people that work there sat in the golf cart and proceeded to watch them for thirty minutes. My spouse had to help with 3 others to jiggle a boulder so they can gain an inch of room. The area where they ask you to put up tents on are white rock filled area next to our fire pit and picnic table. We were asked to not use the "ground" dirt to camp but did point out many tents using this. The rules are ridiculous, no hammocks , and if you are disabled and use a cane like I do good luck maneuvering around the unnecessary costly boulders that are not an improvement but a waste of cost. Never again will I or seventeen others visit again. Enjoy your boulders.

We took this hike a few days ago. We took the clockwise way. This trail is absolutely stunning with…read moremany wildflowers, water falls and cascades and lots of tree cover. The trail is very well maintained. I read they did a huge overhaul in 2015 and it shows. There is a beautiful cedar grove about 2 miles in that offers a park bench to sit at. To get there, the trail is relatively flat most of the way with a gradual, barely noticeable incline. Just after the grove you will do some steep switchbacks before heading to the shady side of the mountain and finally, to a beautiful waterfall. If You continue, you will go above the waterfall and find yourself at another much larger waterfall. From there, you will make a slow descent down, and then a much quicker descent. It's said that the trail was 8 and a 1/2 miles. According to my phone, we did much further than that at about 10 miles. This probably is due to the fact that the trailhead is about a 1/2 a mile from the parking lot. We also did some other walking around near the Cedar Grove et cetera. I would recommend doing this trail if you have moderate hiking experience. This could be done with children if they are also seasoned hikers. I wouldn't take very small children though, since on the switch back there isn't much on the side of the trail. There is an equestrian trail as well. We didn't see too many people on that trail other than a couple of mountain bikers. On the main trail, it was decently busy but not enough to feel like it was crowded.

I went this past week, it's winter so the trail is blocked by snow and hard to see path. But Snows never stopped a hike for me, and shouldn't! But due to have no signs on the trail and misleading map in the beginning we just kept hiking and hiking to what seemed like nothing, it was super worrisome! And definitely stressful when you are trying to have fun and don't have a map to get back or signs knowing you are going the right way! So definitely fun but when you are hiking you kinda wanna know where you are and how far you have to go. No hate to this trail it's a great adventure but, just wanted to let people know what they are walking into if they like to hike a few miles. Be safe ya'll

For my first visit to the northern peninsula of Idaho, I decided to make a stop in the town of…read moreCoeur d'Alene. Coeur d'Alene has a charming downtown waterfront and it's here where you'll find this Tubbs Hill Trail. I believe hiking along Tubbs Hill represents the city of Coeur d'Alene well. It's an easy 2 mile round trip loop that oversees the harbor from a distance. Basically, it's a perfectly fine nature trail. There are 26 or 27 posted marker signs along the trail to guide you (including a halfway point). It's absolutely impossible to get lost, lol. To be specific on where Tubbs Hill Trail officially begins, you can find the starting point right next to the Rotary Harbor House (which looked like a relaxing spot to grab some fish tacos and catch views from the pier). Since the hike is a loop, if you begin by going off to the right hand side, there are spots along the way to descend down the rockside and go swimming in Lake Coeur d'Alene. I noticed a lot of people were relaxing and lounging out on the rocks while taking refreshing breaks in the water. If this sounds enticing, then remember to bring your bathing suit and a towel, lol. The first part of the hike offers panoramic lookouts of not only the boats docked beside the waterfront, but also the historical landmark - Hotel Coeur d'Alene. Eventually you wrap your way around in a circle getting to enjoy the great outdoors. It's a chance to breathe in fresh air from the lake without having to work hard. There's barely any incline/decline along the 2 mile path. It took me one hour to complete the hike. Lastly, parking can be difficult in downtown Coeur d'Alene. Independence Point is a popular area to park, but they do charge by the hour and every spot was occupied when I arrived in the middle of the day. I resorted to parking on a sidestreet next to the Coeur d'Alene shopping district. Though, cars on side streets are only permitted for 2 hour intervals at a time. Overall, Tubbs Hill Trail was a pleasant hiking activity. Pair it with maybe taking a cruise out on the lake or walking around the Boardwalk Marina (the "world's longest floating boardwalk" if you can believe) and you'll discover the best of what Coeur d'Alene has to offer.

The launch is extremely busy which makes it that much more stressful. The dock is tiny and not sturdy or very long which makes it difficult to lunch/load. You would think with all of the taxes the lake properties pay they could afford a better dock/parking area. At the very least there needs to be more than one launch area. Will never return to this lake with our boat as we already obtained a permanent souvenir chip to our boat due to the shallowness of the launch and the horrible wind.

There is an impressive view of Liberty Lake from the boat launch dock. The only problem is that…read morethe road leading to the boat launch and the snake-like road leading down to the lake are not designed for anyone who isn't experienced navigating a trailer. The road leading to the boat launch was precarious for me and I didn't even have a trailer. It seemed more like a back-alley, with cars parked on either side of the narrow street. I can't imagine what it would be like on a Saturday afternoon, two inexperienced drivers hauling large boats meeting in the middle of the road for a game of chicken to see who backs down, the loser forced to back up knowing that a sway in the trailer will scratch the cars parked along either side. It almost had the feeling that the property owners were strategizing ways to scare boaters from the launch to maintain tranquility in the neighborhood. I have seen this type of strategizing in Wisconsin on lakes near population centers, where there is technically a public boat launch, but the only place to park your vehicle is a half mile away. Don't forget your life vest! For those skillful enough to put their boat in the water, Liberty Lake is beautiful.
