If you are unable to attend, please know that there will be an opportunity to share thoughts, stories, condolences via video or in writing. We were thrilled to find a venue available in a place that meant the world to Lyle. We understand that traveling and lodging might make attendance too challenging. Further details will be provided at a later date about how to “participate” via video or in writing. You may also post memories and videos on here in the Memories section. We will make those available at the service.

For those of you who are able to attend we strongly recommend booking lodging as soon as possible. Many places at the lake book a year in advance. Below are a few options.

Closest Airport: Spokane, Washington (GEG)
around two hours from the lake

Car Rental Tips: There are several rental counters right in the airport. Before booking a car, we recommend making sure that the counter is in the airport and not off-site.

Lodging Suggestions

Vrbo (search for Priest Lake Idaho or Coolin, Idaho - the venue is on the west side of the lake)

Airbnb (search for Priest Lake Idaho or Coolin, Idaho - the venue is on the west side of the lake)

The Inn at Priest Lake https://theinnatpriestlake.com
Not the most fancy, for sure, but availability might be better

Camping Options if preferred: https://parksandrecreation.id…

Elkins Resort https://www.elkinsresort.com
Wonderful resort, but extremely unlikely there will be lodging availability, and limited to seven night minimums in July

Hills Resort https://www.hillsresort.com
Great resort, but extremely unlikely there will be lodging availability, and limited to seven night minimums in July

Tip: Consider a Sandpoint, ID or Priest River, ID lodging search if you’re having trouble with Priest Lake lodging, but please note the drive times from your selection to Hills Resort.

Best to Avoid: Coolin Motel
