Laundry Stop- RV Park !!!

Coeur d'Alene, United States


We Made it to Coeur d Alene, ID ! After camping with no services other than the 12 volt battery and a tank of fresh water for over a week. We were looking forward to full hookups, a pool and laundry! We arrived full of good feelings, to Coeur d Alene Camping resort. It is located on a hillside and the sites are stacked one on top of the other. We were escorted to our site, wow, how nice of them. Then we found out why.. our site was a back in with a sheer rock cliff to the rear and a drop off of about 4 feet on one side. We had to be guided in as not to fall off one side or scape the utilities on the other side or back in to the rock wall. Well, we got settled and wanted to catch up with family via the internet. They promised free wifi. When I couldn't connect, I decided to do laundry. I went to the office and asked if the wifi worked in certain areas of the park or should I be doing something I am not. The response I got was not one of concern, but annoyance. I was told, "It works everywhere!" I told him, that I was having a hard time getting it to work in my site. He said, "oh, well, when the big rigs and hardsided motorhomes are on the hill, it may not work." Ok.. well that answered that, I think?! I could go on and on about how I would not recommend this place, unless of course you don't have kids, dogs, trash..! Kids: They must only play in certain areas. Right next to the pool is a shower, perfect for the rinse off after the pool. But if you have kids, don't leave the swim diaper there! No, those must be carted up the hill to a "proper" trash can. Really, there is a sign in the bath, next to the showers, no swim diapers or "household" trash, those must be put in the north end trash cans. So haul it up the hill, people!. Dogs, not pet friendly. They must walk in the dog loop, and even if you clean up after your pet, there is a special trash can for that, yep, north end of the park, up the hill. We got the laundry done and had the full hookups, but we would not stay here again. Staff was rude, no one smiled, no one.. ! so much for hospitality!
