Detailed description

Coeur D'Alene Public Golf Course is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho.

The course first opened for play in 1957. The course was renovated in 1991 by Scott Miller.

A plaque inside the club shop provides the following historical information, “The Coeur d’Alene Public Golf Club was the first public golf course in Kootenai County, and was incorporated in June 1953.  Original Incorporators were Percy M. Lents, S. C. Sanderson, R. Patrick Campbell, Dr. Jack  Allen Rice, and Attorney Sidney E. Smith. The four years between incorporation and opening consisted of outstanding effort and hard work by civic-minded citizens and businesses.  They raised money by corporate and individual pledges.  Some land for the course was donated and some was purchased.  Three sub-divisions of property and sale of lots surrounding the course speeded up development of the back nine holes.  The hard work was done by months of volunteer work parties with bulldozers, chainsaws, rakes, shovels, and hand axes.  All of this was accomplished at no cost to taxpayers.  Donators and contributors were issued Certificates of Indebtedness, none of which were ever claimed or paid."

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees, the course plays to 6,295 yards. From the forward tees, the course measures 5,514 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 11, a par-5 that plays to 575 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 6, a par-3 that plays to 150 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 12, a 433-yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 2, a 154-yard par-3.
