2011 Map of Harrison

About this map

Harrison stands as the primary waterfront settlement where the Coeur d'Alene River meets the expansive lake waters, characterized by its steep-banked shoreline and numerous landings. The landscape is defined by its peninsula-and-cove geography, with significant features like Ch'ach'alqw Landing and Harrison Boat Landing facilitating water access. To the south, the terrain rises into the heights of Shoeffler Butte and Mason Butte, bordering the northern reaches of Heyburn State Park. Local history is embedded in the family-named landmarks such as Talbot Hill and Zehn Hill, which overlook the quiet residential pockets of Peaceful Valley. This era shows a community balanced between its river-mouth origins and its development into a gateway for regional recreation, evidenced by the presence of Camp Easterseal and the Bell Bay Campground along the winding lake road network.
