The Hagadone Event Center takes conference dinners, receptions, company celebrations and weddings for up to 450 guests, or 300 seated for a wedding, in a lakefront hall with retractable glass walls and its own garden and beach. It belongs to The Coeur d'Alene Resort in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, and stands at the resort's golf course on the shore of Lake Coeur d'Alene, so a group can combine meetings in the main resort with an evening event across the water.
Seminars and company events
The resort lists the Hagadone Event Center among its meeting venues with a capacity of up to 450 guests. It works well as the setting for the evening of a conference: an awards dinner, a gala or a closing reception after sessions held in the resort. Guests reach it from the resort by private cruise boat, a sail of about 20 minutes, or by private motorcoach in about 10 minutes. The resort itself has 25 event rooms and more than 32,000 square feet of conference, exhibit and meeting space, including a conference center ballroom for up to 1,500 guests, the Bayview Rooms for up to 260, executive boardrooms on the seventh floor of the Park Tower for 5 to 110, the rooftop Lakeview Terrace and a front lawn for up to 500.
Weddings and receptions
For weddings, the resort gives the event center seating for up to 300 guests. The retractable glass walls open the hall onto a wraparound patio, the private garden and the beach, and two indoor fireplaces and a built-in bar serve the colder months. Two private staging rooms are available for the wedding party.
Rooms and capacities
The main hall takes up to 450 guests for a meeting-style event and seats up to 300 for a wedding dinner. Two private staging rooms, the garden, the beach and the wraparound patio complete the venue. The resort's fleet of six lake cruise boats can carry from 80 to 700 guests across its vessels, which allows a cruise to be built into the arrival or the departure.
Accommodation
Guests stay at The Coeur d'Alene Resort, which has rooms in the Lake Tower, the Park Tower and the North Wing, along with suites such as the Jaeger Suite and the Hagadone Suite. The resort says its Sherman Tower expansion, due to open in May 2027, will bring the total to 477 rooms.
Catering
The event center offers a Northwest-themed menu. The resort's conference services team builds custom menus, from breakfast buffets and coffee and snack bars to plated dinners.
Getting there
The resort is at 115 South 2nd Street in downtown Coeur d'Alene, and the event center is reached from there by boat or motorcoach. Spokane International Airport is about 40 minutes west via Interstate 90, and Coeur d'Alene Air Terminal handles corporate and private aircraft. The resort also arranges motorcoaches, vans, SUVs and airport transfers with advance booking.
