Waterfront Post Falls neighborhood with easy access to the city
South Shore is a quiet Post Falls neighborhood that offers everything people love about the Coeur d’Alene region. “It’s the best of both worlds. You get to be on the river, have water access, and you’re five minutes from town,” says Shari Knudtsen, a Realtor with Windermere/Coeur d’Alene Realty. “It’s absolutely incredible. It’s not a gated neighborhood, but it’s pretty private.” With the Spokane River to the north and the cities of Post Falls and Coeur d’Alene nearby, residents can enjoy a day of swimming, boating or fishing before heading into town for dinner at one of many local restaurants.
South Shore offers lots of diverse wildlife available right in your backyard.
South Shore offers beautiful views over the Spokane river.

Greensferry Park is a neighborhood park with a swimming area, picnic tables and grills. Q’emiln Park is a 78.5-acre green space west of the neighborhood with a large swimming beach that stays busy throughout the summer. The park also has a public boat launch. Non-water activities at the park include horseshoe pits, volleyball courts and cliffs for rock climbing. The park is also an entrance to the Post Falls Community Forest, a large natural area with hiking trails and river access for fishing and kayaking.

The vast freshwater lake is full of boats in the summertime, and waterskiing and wakeboarding are among the popular activities.

They’re known for their pizza, and it’s really good,” Knudtsen says. “The White House Grill is there. That’s Greek food, and it’s a fancier place.” River City Lanes is on Seltice Way, while the Greek column-adorned White House Grill is on North Spokane Street. Other options in the city include the bar food and relaxed atmosphere at Sawmill Grille & Spirits or the house-brewed beer at Post Falls Brewing Company.
