Inland Northwest Outdoors
Minutes from any of The Davenport Collection Hotels, you’ll find a natural playground in every direction. The popular Centennial Trail and Riverfront Park are within walking distance. Nearby mountains draw skiers in the winter and hikers and bikers in the warm months. Seventy-six lakes and multiple rivers, one of which flows through the heart of downtown, offer everything from whitewater rafting and kayaking to swimming, boating and extraordinary fishing. Is golf more your thing? Step up to the tee at one of 33 local world-class courses, where the only thing that trumps the enjoyable play is the unrivaled natural beauty.
