Scenic parks and convenient highways in Post Falls East

While the nearby resort town of Coeur d'Alene is known for its lakefront parks and beaches, the suburban city of Post Falls boasts miles of waterfront along the Spokane River. In the Post Falls East neighborhood, that water access is a big draw for homebuyers. This community is also sought-after for having a shorter commute to Spokane than the nearby cities of Coeur d'Alene and Hayden do. Homeowners here have a 30-mile drive, compared to 37 miles if they live in Hayden. “The nice thing that’s similar to Coeur d’Alene is you have access to the Spokane River. It’s not walkable, but maybe a 10-minute drive. You can go float the river, and there are a lot of riverfront parks,” says Michelle Rene, an associate broker with Windermere Coeur d’Alene Realty, who has sold multiple homes in the area. “It also happens to be much closer to Spokane if you have someone commuting to the Spokane area. Some professions pay higher in Washington, so it’s not uncommon for people to work in Washington but want to live in Idaho.”
