    This lake is so beautiful! Would definitely recommend to anyone who likes walking on trails and seeing good views! There was a lot of kids at the Bay area with paddle boards, seems like a very good spot for families.

    The state park by Bayview was a great spot to access the lake! We loved it and can’t wait to be back to swim and paddle board some more. We are so lucky to live in the PNW where our lakes are crystal clear and (almost) drinkable! Compared to some East cost lakes that you can’t even see through!!

    Such a big beautiful lake with lots of exploring. It's nice to go somewhere on the water with your boat and not feel like you are crowded. There is plenty of places to swim on the shore as well.

    I live on the River, so it’s a true blessing to wake up each morning to a beautiful sunrise and watch the gorgeous sunsets at night!!! Boating up to Lake Pend Oreille is always a fun adventure with friends as well!! Just keep those horrible wake boats off of our River and Lake!!!

    Lake Pend Oreille is a very big and amazing lake with immense beauty and very much to do all the way from Bayview to Sandpoint and along the north and eastern shore all the way to Clark Fork. Fishing, camping, hiking, boat tours, beaches and every type of water front activity all in one. It is a very deep lake at 1150 feet and still supports a Navy Submarine base that dates back to WWII. Bring your camera and batteries.
