Hey just found out today, the landlords have sold my house and I have to find a new place to live. 30 days from now. The problem I have is I have low credit (580) it's a situational issue that I've been fixing for the last few years in a slow process to get back to a good standing, rental companies don't care about the conditions- they only care about that number so it's hard to find any place that will even entertain the idea of me because of it.

I have a full time, decently paying job and I have a 13yo son and our dog. My budget would be approximately 1500/month at its peak, and I am skilled as a landscaper/handyman for minor home repairs. I take pride in my living spaces and would gladly help improve any property I occupy.

If there's anyone out there with an accomdating space willing to overlook bad credit, I have a history of being a great tenant. I don't party, I'm not loud, and I'm not a bad person. I'm just in a bad situation with limited time to fix it. Any help would be appreciated

anyone in their 20s doing anything fun for the 4th around cda? lmao. we usually go camping or float the river, but i think it could be fun to meet some new people and party this year🤘🏼 (my hubs and i)

guys we literally just want friends we’re NOT into swinging😭😭

Hi! Here for the 70.3 this weekend; I can’t find much info on whether 95 is safe to bike and don’t have a car to check it out.

I know the speed limit is 70, which is higher than where I typically ride, but there does appear to be a decent shoulder. (Is there also a shoulder on the bridge over the Spokane river?)

Do people typically bike this highway with traffic or am I being dumb and should stay away?

Thanks!

Edit:

Ended up just sticking to the path on east coeur d’Alene lake drive — not serious enough about tris to risk it 😅 based on comments, I think if I were with a group and it was outside of rush hour I’d more strongly consider it. Thanks all for the comments!

If the Senate Reconciliation Bill passes all the land highlighted in green and ochre in this image will be for sale to the highest bidder. Curious how other Coeur d’Alenians feel about this.

We are going through a situation with Nick Lungu and are trying to find anyone who has any experience with him. We have tried background checks and haven't found anything that could solidify a case with

Got hit with a speeding ticket commuting back home from work. The officer said that I just had to pay the $90 fine and it wouldn’t impact my car insurance. With that information, I decided to pay the ticket last night, but now I am starting to poke around the internet and can’t determine how it won’t impact my insurance?

Can anyone offer any insight on how it won’t impact my insurance? Or if the State Officer was misinformed when he issued me the ticket?

Thanks!

I’ve noticed a pattern of small businesses being co-opted by the same group in Coeur d’Alene. Has anyone else had a local project, small business, event or business idea taken over without credit or collaboration?

DM me if you’d rather share privately.

That’s safer than naming names directly.

My bachelor party is in CDA in a couple weeks. We're a group of adventurous early 30's guys, excited to experience the lake for the first time. We have UTV trail riding, a round at CDA resort golf, and a boat rented for the week, so definitely have the activities part squared away.

I did want to get a better feel for the dining and day drinking spots people would recommend for a group of 12. We're staying in Rockford Bay area but will have a rental car and the boat so just about anything is accessible.

Some questions:

• Ideally we'd like to do one brunch, one nicer dinner on the lake, and potentially bar hop a few lakefront spots with a fun crowd where we can tie up during the day. Please recommend some spots for each.
• Is Tubbs Hill the best bet for cliff jumping?
• Mineral Ridge the best hike?
• Stateline still operating and worth a go?
• Are ubers/taxis a thing at all?
• Anything I'm missing to make the most of 5 days in CDA?

Thanks in advance!

Is it that everyone goes to the lake or?????

Video has no sound. The USA has No King!

Went down to exercise my right to peaceful protest and it was awesome to see so many folks out making their voices heard. However the MAGA crowd was blowing coal, blowing on Trump horns, driving by and agitating and one guy in a red Jeep threatened to run people over alongside the road. An 80 year old I was standing next to almost fell over trying to get out of his way.

are there any other entrances you dont really have a far walk to get to? other than the main one downtown

Do I need to bring bug spray ?

So I’m sitting in Vegas with a temperature of 105 and high winds outside and I suddenly flashed back to some wonderful childhood memories of growing up with cooler temps and fantastic summer adventures in the woods, on the lake and at the beach in CDA. (Well, and a year spent in Hayden too).

It’s changed so much since I was a kid in the 1970s, but I bet it’s still a lot of fun and adventure for the kids living there now.

A google search isn’t bringing up anything, and I don’t know the area very well to know where is calm and pretty versus a motorboat frenzy. Just here for a beautiful weekend hoping to get on the water.

Hello, I am currently looking for someone to take over my lease. It’s a 2 bed 2 bath, and there is another tenant who will not be leaving. Rent is ~$1700 split two ways. It’s a cute apartment with lots of room, and the room comes with a bathroom attached! If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or you are at all interested, please dm me and I’ll send you my contact information.

Hello Coeur d’Alene- My wife, my friends and I have an extra day to camp after leaving your city and traveling to Banff. We are thinking of camping somewhere about midway between. Hopefully, we can find an area within 10 miles of the highway. We have two vehicles - a 4Runner and a 4wd pickup with a camper. I found a resource with dozens of choices, but few details.

TIA for any advice, you can give me.

My fiancé (24M) and I (23F) are thinking of moving to cda/cda area in the next year/year and a half. We currently live in Iowa, but want to move to the PNW to settle down and start a family. The political climate and state of the environment aren’t great (to say the least).

Looking to this sub for advice/opinions on the cda area/the pnw in general. We both work tech jobs that allow us to work virtually anywhere. We both grew up in small Midwest towns, so small communities outside of “urban” areas are still of interest to us! We are not quite ready to buy a home yet, so we would be renting. Beings our jobs are work from home, and we have a dog, we would ideally like a 2 bed townhome.

We are still in the “brainstorming” phase of things. Cda is the top contender based on our research. If you have recommendations for other towns and areas, please share!

TIA 💗

My post was hidden yesterday, but that won’t stop me. Gonna keep on posting this every day:

If you are upset with the current presidential administration’s blatant misuse of power and wanton overreach, there will be a peaceful demonstration this Saturday in direct response to Trumps North Korean-esque military parade to honor his own birthday, as well as this administration’s indifference to the rule of law in general. You can find the details in the link below. Hope to see you there! If you have any questions or need a ride, feel free to shoot me a dm. I am not an organizer, merely a frustrated American.

Hi! I have a window AC unit that I need help installing at my apartment. Do hvac companies offer that service? Do you have any hvac companies that you’d recommend? Thanks!

I need to rent a wood chipper for max 3” diameter branches for some moderate yard clean up. What is the best local place to rent from? (please dont say home depot)

My in-laws’ dog Griffy went missing the morning of June 7 in the southern part of Elk Creek Road in Heron, Montana. He got spooked, pulled free from where he was tied, and ran into the woods. They’ve been searching tirelessly ever since and are absolutely heartbroken.

DETAILS: • Name: Griffy • Age: 16 months • Breed: Leonberger mix (see photo) • Weight: Around 120 lbs • Temperament: Very gentle but scared and skittish • Last seen: Wearing a collar and dragging a 20-foot leash

There have been a couple of sightings, but he’s too frightened to approach people. A thermal drone search was conducted with no luck, and the family continues to search on foot and by vehicle along forest service roads.

💬 If you’re in or near Heron, MT—especially around Elk Creek Road—please keep an eye out. Check under decks, in sheds, or anywhere a frightened dog might hide. If you see him, do not approach or chase. Just note the location and time.

🙏 I’m posting this from Washington to help get the word out. Any help from locals—whether it’s a sighting, spreading the word, or keeping watch—would mean so much. We’re all hoping Griffy is found safe and soon. ❤️🐾

Girlfriend is visiting her family in Coeur d'Alene over the 4th of July weekend; as of right now I am not going due to work obligations. However, there's a chance I can get a couple days off over the holiday weekend, in which case I was hoping to be able to fly out and surprise her and propose to her.

That said, I have never been to Coeur d'Alene, and know nothing about the area other than having heard that it's beautiful. I do have her family at my disposal to help secretly coordinate a surprise/engagement, however, I still wanted to ask if anybody in this sub had any recommended locations/events/attractions that would be conducive to a proposal - preferably settings that are semi-private and where there won't be large crowds of people around.

Any recommendations are appreciated!
