About this property
6 Houses from City Beach - the Doctors' Inn!
This spacious house has almost always been the home of a doctor, beginning with Dr Dwyer in the 1920's, Dr Carlson in the 1940's, and Dr Don and Dr Jane Gumprecht in 1951.
The Gumprecht children, three of whom are themselves doctors, now offer this gracious accommodation for your vacation enjoyment. Situated in the historic, peaceful Fort Grounds Neighborhood, it is right in the middle of all that makes Coeur d'Alene famous.
The neighborhood was born before the automobile, when everyone walked. It remains within easy walking distance of most everything. Confirm this by doing a map search of Military Drive. Then review the web sites of the CDA Visitors Bureau and the nearby Coeur d'Alene Resort for a complete run down of the area's attractions, close in and farther out, summer and winter.
If you can tolerate purple prose, read VRBO listing #185852 for further descriptions of neighborhood history. The Doctors' Inn has been refurbished with one new and one renovated bathroom (the half bath retains its 1957 pink glory). The kitchen appliances are new.
There are now 3 cable TV's, Broadband, a game room with foosball, Wii, board games, cards, toys, and the like. Sleeping space is ample and we are pleased with the preparations made to accommodate families with small children. We intend for everyone to have a vacation of cherished memories.

Our family had a great time staying at the Doctors’ Inn! The house is spacious and well equipped. The location is awesome and walking distance to the beach, parks, downtown. Highly recommend staying here, and would love to come back again in the future!
We enjoyed our stay at this property. It not only is very close to the beach and city park, but also it is a very spacious home that offers everything you may need for your stay. The house is very clean, communication with property manager was quick and effective. We did not have any problems with anything. It was very interesting to also get to know the history of this home. Would highly recommend.
This was our third time staying at the Dr's Inn, and once again, it did not disappoint. The house is a delightful throwback to the 70's and 80's, which we absolutely love. It's spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean. Everything we needed was right there, making our stay incredibly convenient and stress-free.
The neighborhood is terrific, adding to the overall experience. We highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a comfortable and nostalgic stay in Coeur d'Alene. We'll definitely be back!
We had a great time. 6 best friends, class of 1976. We had no problem with the stairs and walked everywhere in spite of the heatwave. Enjoyed the comfy patio furniture every night and were very grateful for the excellent air conditioning.
We enjoyed our stay at the Doctor's Inn. The location is superb and the house worked well for our large group.
We would definitely stay there again when in town.
Great house with a bit of 70s nostalgia included. Clean, fully stocked kitchen, accommodating host, lots of water toys and just steps from the beach. Family loved it.
The location is great - close to a big park and downtown. The house had plenty of space for everyone and was very comfortable. We would definitely go back!
Historic property with lots of charm and room for family or friends. The property is well stocked with essential items and is in a great location. Close to the park and beach with a short walk to downtown. We would stay here again.
This was the perfect family vacation for us. Everyone had their own space, we fit around the dining table and played games in the living room. We loved being so near the beach and town.
I can't recommend this house enough for family vacations.
We loved staying at this home! My kids loved all of the nooks and crannies, and all of the stairs and rooms. Perfect location! Close to the lake and to town. Fast responses and easy to communicate with owners. We loved it here!
Great stay, nice accommodations, comfortable beds, all you could need is supplied! A block from the lake with surrounding beauty and lively old homes! I WILL be back!
The house was clearly a family home and was a good fit for our family vacation with our three adult children and two grandchildren. Close to the lake and the park which made for an easy walk. Plenty of space for everyone. Well equipped kitchen made for easy meal prep.
Charming place with a wonderful history. Plenty of room for all 10 of us. Accommodating for children but not great for the elderly because of a lot of stairs. Well appointed.

Awesome!
The house was clean and amazing with lots of room. There were six adults and four children and we never felt crowded. The location was perfect with easy walking access to the lake, the park and town. Roni was responsive and so easy to work with. We loved this place.
Love love love the Doctor’s Inn. I hesitate to write a raving review because selfishly I don’t want to ever lose our annual spot here. This home is a walk back into simpler, lovely, family times. We refer to this house and town as “Our happy place”. Roni, remember to keep our yearly spot please please please!

Great location, house was good. Room for everyone.
We have been to Coeur de Alene before and love it. So many things to do there. As for the house, fantastic location. We were not able to us the bedroom on the 3rd floor because it was to warm, no air conditioning. The house itself was great. Great memories were made at this home.
Lovely period home like walking back in time but charming through and through. This home had a well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and tons of space, and was a hit with our family during our reunion in Couer D'Alane this summer. No need to drive to the beach as a short walk brings you to the water's edge in 5 minutes. Would reccommend this for all ages of family members.
The house was like stepping back in time.....my grandchildren were fasinated with the nooks and crannies.....the .kitchen was well stocked and easy to work in.The bbq would have been nice except for the fact the two tanks were totally empty....we survived....such a great location....we had a great time...thanks for sharing your properry with us.....!
We LOVED this property. It is right in the middle of everything. You can walk to the beach, park, downtown, everything. Roni was extremely understanding when we had an unfortunate incident (sick baby) early on the morning of our departure. Roni was available to answer any and all questions immediately. There were so many dishes, the kitchen has everything you need. Enough towels for days! Thank you for sharing your property with us, Roni.

Great Family Vacation Home
Our 3 generation family just completed our vacation at the DOCTOR's Inn. This home is very clean, very spacious and extremely well-located to everything we enjoy doing. Everything you need is provided.
There was plenty of space for everyone including a basement bedroom and bathroom, perfect for a teenager.
The laundry facilities were wonderful and very helpful when traveling with young children or flying in from a long distance and you need to travel light.
The grandchildren loved the beautiful parks and beach, all within a very short walk from the home. The young adults could walk to the pier for parasailing and boating and we all enjoyed walking to the downtown area for the great restaurants and the occasional ice cream cone or snow one.
Though the home is older, it is maintained, including air-conditioning, and the owners are generous with what they provide for your use.
The price is right for the space, parking and location provided.
We look forward to returning!
