Grandview Resort offers a boat launch on Priest Lake in the Kaniksu National Forest near Nordman, Idaho. To access the ramp, take Highway 57 through Priest Lake, then turn east onto Kalispell Bay Road (Forest Service Road 237), followed by a right turn south onto Lake Shore Road (FSR 1337). Look for resort signage to locate the facility.
**Facilities & Access:** The site features a gravel parking lot and a boat launch ramp with a sidewalk (though not wheelchair accessible). The ramp provides convenient access to Priest Lake for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. Paddlers should note that no developed trails are available at the launch site itself. Restrooms and shade facilities may be available, though specific amenities should be confirmed before visiting.
**Nearby Options:** Two reservable boat-in campgrounds are within 10 miles—Kalispell Island and Bartoo Island—making this a good jumping-off point for multi-day paddling trips on Priest Lake. Contact the Kaniksu National Forest or local outfitters for current conditions, fee information, and seasonal access details.
