I loved Sandpoint! So beautiful.

I love Sandpoint, but everything north of Sandpoint is beautiful, okay everything south in Idaho isn’t bad either. We started thinking we wanted to live in Hayden but went to Bonners Ferry for a day trip fell in love and bought a house in Naples Idaho and absolutely love it.

if you take that route east from Sandpoint into Montana, right after clark fork you'll find a random junkyard on the side of the highway with nothing but 1930s and 1940s vehicles it's so awesome

I have family in Sandpoint and lived there many years ago. It truly is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. Not the best place to earn a living but a wonderful place to live if you can afford it.

I have seen deer and moose inside the Coeur d'Alene city limits.

I kind of thought Sandpoint would be your choice here. I grew up there and will be returning there. I agree with everything you said and would add a few more amenities to your list: 1) Restaurants. There are lots of quality restaurants in town plus a short drive to Hope gives you a few more high-end choices. 2) In the summer, weekly farmers market and (right across the street) a small pod of food carts. 3) Hiking trails. Notable is the Mickinnick Trail right on the edge of Sandpoint (trail is 3.5 miles one-way, medium difficulty, and ends at a vast overlook of Sandpoint and the lake).

You should do a video on midtown in coeur d'alene, trader joes is opening there.

Nothing against Sandpoint, but I love Stanley ID myself, but not much of a town. Sawtooths are amazing.

I think McCall is the prettiest town in Idaho. I love Sandpoint though I had a great time there.

We live in Hope, we LOVE IT! Sandpoint with its larger population it is nicer than down south. The biggest plus is that WE can eat the fish out of the lake. There was not the mining here so the Mercury is not here in the lake or fish. The work is not as abundant here, but I have found a job that pays about half or what of what I made down south. I have a mountain going up my back yard. I have bear poop in my front yard in the spring and summer. Trustee creek runs through my neighbors back yards. Deer, elk and mountain lions run around here. I don’t go out in my yard without a side arm. I retired here ( my work is VERY part time). We will live out our days at this house. But, a word of warning……….. we’re full here!😅😅😅😅

There ain't shit in hope, id. Zero jobs people. Winters are a bitch. Yall don't tell the truth. Idaho pays lowest min wage around. Navy does sub testing in that lake. Fricken cold af. 95 from SP to CDA is a shit show

Agree 100%

I agree, Sandpoint is gorgeous! The first time we did a day trip from Post Falls (lived in North Idaho my whole life, Post Falls nearly 25 years), my first thought was, "Why haven't we done this before?!" And, "We need to do this often!" I think we'd just never had a need to venture farther north than Cocolalla.

Thanks for the great tour !

I love my place up near Sandpoint!

agree, thank you!

Have you ever done a video on Priest Lake? What is it like in that area?

Love this video. Love all of your videos. Ignore the those who don't know how to just scroll past posts they don't agree with.

Thank you @elainekenny9341. Appreciate getting some love from my audience.

A chair lift that carries 6 skiers/riders is called a "Six Pack". Nice video

LOL, I should have guessed that. Thanks for watching and commenting.

You call it a six pack. I believe Alterra bought Schweitzer not Vail Resorts. Nice video.

Sandpoint is, indeed, gorgeous. However, my vote for prettiest town in Idaho is Stanley. That view of the Sawtooths cannot be beat.

Absolutely, Stanley has a very special place in my heart, hence why I haven’t blasted it to the world on my channel. But with the ski resort, lake, and downtown, Sandpoint is number 1 for me.

One other industry in Sandpoint: Kodiak aircraft (located at the airport) builds airplanes.

That’s right! I forgot about them. They build amazing aircraft.

Why doesn’t anyone mention Diedrich Roasters? Company was founded here in the 1980s and manufactures coffee roasters that are sold worldwide.

Saint Maries is the best town in Idaho

I have lived here my whole life. It’s God‘s country truly beautiful lots of wilderness surrounded by water one of the most beautiful valleys I’ve ever seen and not crowded by a lot of people remote can do all the things that you said about Sandpoint as far as skiing boating hunting, swimming just home

Thank you Trent for the great video and information. I do have a question that the video did not cover, we love Sandpoint, but we’re informed that local politics is beginning to lean towards a liberal mindset. Trent, please let me know if this is a bad rumor or is there some truth to it? Thank you.

I'm from Sandpoint. Yes, Sandpoint has taken a "blue turn" in politics. However, a local resident told me that recently when the city council wanted to make Sandpoint a sanctuary city and had a town meeting to discuss it, the local residents made it manifestly clear that they did not want this and the resolution didn't pass.

We have our fingers crossed that never happens in Idaho, we’ve all seen very clearly what that political mindset damages, and I pray 🙏🏼 that Idahoans hold steadfast to their values and views that make Idaho one of the greatest states in the Nation. ❤️

Where the Polish delis at?

Sandpoint. It's The New Lake Tahoe, Idaho. Just kidding. Priest Lake is nicer.

Little known fact: most people who move to Sandpoint will flee after 2 or 3 winters. Oh certainly, it's pretty, but if you don't really enjoy getting buried in snow for 8 months and living with life threatening cold then you best look elsewhere.

Holy Cow! Average home price is 600k?! Your channel obviously caters to a different segment of society. Is there anything for normal Americans who average 100k annual income?

Meh!

What an awful video. Short clips and photos of Sandpoint mixed in with you talking and talking and talking. I wanted to see Sandpoint, not you.

Hey @hillock10, I appreciate the feedback. It looks like you had no trouble realizing that I did not create that type of channel. I invite you to find a different channel and avoid the stress of being horribly disappointed with my other videos. Take care.

@@anthonyoram7614 Appreciate the encouragement. When you do something because you love it, discouragement doesn't have the typical affect. I know I'm not for everyone, and thank god! I'm for those that appreciate authenticity, honesty, and light heartedness. If that's not what they're looking for then they aren't who I am looking for. Life is so much better with that in focus in mind, ya know?
