I had a chance to cruise across Lake Coeur d'Alene aboard the Osprey, one of the cruise boats out of the Coeur d'Alene Resort. The destination was Campfire USA Inland Northwest Council's beautiful Camp Sweyolaken. Camp Sweyolakan sits on nearly 300 beautiful wooded acres on the shores of Mica Bay. One of the oldest resident camps in the country, Camp Sweyolakan has been a summer haven for generations of young people for over 85 years. The camp is reaching out for community support for Operation Royal Flush, a project to replace the 50 year old bathroom facilities. Yes, the toilets and showers are FIFTY YEARS OLD! You may find more modern bathroom facilities at other camps, but you could search the world over and not find a more lovely and serene camp setting.
It was a beautiful, sunshiny day on the lake. All of the best of why I love living and selling real estate in beautiful North Idaho! Here are a few of the sights in my path as we sailed south, before the batteries died on my camera....

Gozzer Ranch Golf and Lake Club on the ridge:
I think I toured this beautiful home in Harbor View Estates at an open house a couple of weeks ago. Can't be sure, it certainly looks different from this angle:
Camp Sweyolaken:
More happy people having fun on North Idaho's beautiful Lake Coeur d'Alene!
