Black Bay Getaway | Swim Cove + Park Access
Summary:
Escape to Black Bay Getaway - a rare river-adjacent retreat with direct backyard access to Black Bay Park and one of the area’s best swimming coves. Enjoy a large grassy yard, string lights, propane fire pit, and peaceful river views, all just minutes from Post Falls dining and a short drive to Coeur d’Alene. Designed for summer days, family fun, and relaxed evenings outdoors.
The Space:
Black Bay Getaway is tucked into a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood along the Spokane River, yet feels like a hidden oasis. The backyard opens directly into Black Bay Park, a 56-acre riverside preserve with trails, grassy fields, and a calm swimming cove that locals love.

Best VRBO we have stayed at. Peaceful and lovely. All the amenities you could ever want.
The only thing I would suggest is that blinds or blackout curtains be installed in the queen, double and single bedrooms. Love to stay there again.
This house is beautiful and very comfortable. It really was a home away from home. Our boys’ favorite part of the house was access to Black Bay and Black Bay Park. The water was chilly, but there wasn’t a spare moment wasted! Adults loved the quiet neighborhood, the back deck, the general location… this place has it all! The amenities in the home were above and beyond. The only thing we had to buy were some groceries! We ABSOLUTELY will book this place at any opportunity!
