Circling Raven Golf Club Prepares for its 2026 Season with Exciting Enhancements
The Coeur d’Alene Casino Resort Hotel is set to open Circling Raven Golf Club for its 22nd season on April 3, 2026, welcoming golfers with a range of new enhancements and additions. Renowned as Idaho's top-ranked public course, Circling Raven consistently delivers a first-class experience for its guests.
The club prides itself on exceptional customer service, pristine course conditions, memorable holes, and a breathtaking natural setting, which are fundamental factors contributing to its popularity among players.
This season, the Gene Bates-designed championship course introduces several improvements:
- Enhanced Practice Facility: The expansive 25-acre practice area now features wildlife silhouettes with integrated laser yardages.
- Women's Boot Camps: A new program combining golf instruction and training with a 9-hole playing experience.
- Revamped Pro Shop: The award-winning pro shop offers refreshed merchandise and displays.
- Upgraded Dining: The Twisted Earth bar and grill in the clubhouse boasts an enhanced menu.
- Course Infrastructure: A new cart path has been installed on a section of the course, and wooden bridges have been revitalized through an engineer-supervised maintenance project.
- Raven Cards: Value-packed frequent player cards that offer significant perks and savings.
Circling Raven operates with two distinct seasonal rate segments: Shoulder Season (Opening Day – May 17) and Peak Season (May 18 – October 4). Shoulder Season rates are approximately $30-$40 less than Peak rates, depending on whether it's 9 or 18 holes, stay-and-play packages, and the day of the week.
The popular Raven Card, priced at $599, provides an impressive array of benefits for the 2026 season, including:
- One complimentary round (Monday–Thursday, 2026 Season)
- $40 off 18-hole and 9-hole green fees
- "Raven Hour": Unlimited play for 3 hours before sunset for $75
- Free entry to the Raven Card Tournament
- Monthly group instruction (June–September)
- Discounts on in-stock merchandise
- All-season access to the practice facility
- Buy-one-get-one-free simulator suite hours, and much more
Golf rounds and stay-and-play packages can be conveniently booked by calling 1-800-523-2464. These packages typically include golf for two and a one-night stay (double occupancy) at the acclaimed resort.
Owned and operated by the Coeur d’Alene Tribe, Circling Raven is named in honor of a pivotal tribal leader. Since its inception, the club has received numerous accolades, including recognition as a "Top Casino Course in America," "Best in State," "Top 100 Resort Course," and "Pro Shop Merchandiser of the Year."
