Established suburban neighborhood with parks and shopping

Stretching from the center of Coeur d’Alene to the northeast corner of town, Northeast Prairie is a suburban neighborhood popular for its proximity to recreation. “We’ve got Canfield Mountain that you can hike. There’s Cherry Hills, which has frisbee golf, pickleball and tennis. There are bike trails all around the area, so there’s a lot to do,” says Hannah Masters, a Realtor with Haven Real Estate who has sold multiple homes in the neighborhood. Located near Government Way and North 4th Street, Northeast Prairie residents also benefit from easy access to Coeur d’Alene’s shopping and dining destinations.

Exploring North Idaho's scenery in city parks

Canfield Mountain is an extensive natural area on the neighborhood’s east side with plenty of room for hiking and mountain biking. A trailhead on Mountain Vista Drive gives locals access to a 1.5-mile trail for intermediate-level bikers. The large Cherry Hill Park is near the neighborhood’s south end with an 18-hole disc golf course, dog park, BMX track and several sports facilities. Other parks like Shadduck Lane and North Pines are small neighborhood green spaces with playgrounds, picnic shelters and basketball and volleyball courts. Plus, outside of the neighborhood are Lake Coeur d'Alene and the Coeur d'Alene National Forest for more recreational adventures.

Popular sit-down and take-out restaurants around the community

Several of Coeur d’Alene’s most popular restaurants line Government Way and North 4th Street in the neighborhood. “My favorite is The Garnet Café. It’s a farm-to-table restaurant that’s locally owned,” says Masters. “We have the food truck place that is really popular, with a whole bunch of different food trucks off Best Avenue.” The Garnet Café is a popular breakfast spot serving classic American diner food. The food truck court on Best Avenue is home to mobile eateries serving sushi, sandwiches, Mexican food and barbecue. Other restaurants recommended by Masters include Westside Pizza and Meltz Extreme Grilled Cheese. Living in Northeast Prairie puts residents close to downtown Coeur d’Alene, where North 4th Street is full of local stores selling antiques, jewelry and home goods. Groceries are available at the locally owned Pilgrim’s Market or Safeway and Costco.
