Island View Resort

Island View Resort offers a convenient boat launch on Lake Pend Oreille near Hope, Idaho. The facility features a hard-packed gravel ramp suitable for kayaks, canoes, and small boats, along with a small marina and limited gravel parking. Running water is available on-site, making this a practical access point for day trips or longer outings on the lake.

Located on Hope Peninsula Road (accessible via Highway 200 east from Sandpoint), this private resort-based launch provides basic amenities for paddlers and boaters. Lake Pend Oreille stretches 65 miles through a glacially carved valley, offering extensive exploration opportunities for kayakers and canoeists. The resort setting means facilities like camping may be available, though visitors should confirm services, parking capacity, and any access fees before planning their trip.
