Entry No. 22 — the Coeur d'Alene file — filed under: after-dark

Moonlit Monster Cruise

For roughly a week each October, the resort's lake cruise boat gets dressed up as a floating haunted house and sent out onto dark water at night. The 40-minute trip leans into eerie decor and surprises while the lake glows around you. There's a family-friendly version earlier in the evening and a 21+ 'After Dark' run with cocktails departing 9pm-11pm on Oct 30-31.

The move: Book the 9pm 21+ After Dark sailing on Halloween night, grab cocktails, and brave the floating haunted house out on the black water of the lake.

📍 Before you go Runs only late October (about Oct 23-31, 2026); 21+ After Dark sailings are Oct 30-31 only. Tickets ~$17.50. Departs Boardwalk Marina, not Independence Point.
