About The Idaho Club
The Idaho Club sits near Sandpoint in northern Idaho, set against a backdrop of mountain and river scenery that defines much of the property's character.
The golf course was designed by Jack Nicklaus, who routed it around the meandering Lower Pack River and the surrounding Moose Mountain landscape, with water a recurring feature of the setting.
The club operates on a membership basis, with options that extend beyond golf to include lake and club amenities.
