Sandpoint, Idaho is a Walkers Paradise!

According to Walk Score.com, Downtown Sandpoint Idaho is a “Walkers Paradise”.   

If you are thinking about buying a home in North Idaho, but don’t want to be “off the grid”, Downtown Sandpoint, Idaho is the place to look.

With the median home price currently at $155,000 it is affordable and the amenities are endless.  Within a 3 mile radius you have restaurants, wine bars, bike shops, kayak shops, shopping, music venues and don’t forget Lake Pend Oreille and the Pend Oreille River.

If boating is your thing, rent a boat slip at Sandpoint Marina and leave it there all summer, then whenever you feel like taking a ride, walk down to the marina and in no time, you’re boating down the River to the Willow Bay Resort for some “all you can eat crawfish” !

The Fesitval at Sandpoint happens every year on the first and second weekends in August at Memorial Field.  Musicians from every genre come into town and play to a group of approx 2,000 people who have toted their lawn blankets, chairs and icechests to the park.  This year we will be entertained by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Keb’Mo’, Natalie MacMaster, Michael Franti, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and The Spokane Symphony!

So if you want to spend a little less time in traffic and a lot more time enjoying life…come to Sandpoint, Idaho and start walking!
