Want to take your love for autumn food to a new level? Try eating the fine-dining versions of seasonal comfort foods on a boat: a cruise across Lake Coeur d’Alene surrounded by scenic views of the changing leaves, tranquil waters and maybe the occasional osprey flying overhead while in search of their own meal. Lake Coeur d’Alene Cruises’ Fall Harvest Dinner cruises are just around the bend. Entrée options feature beef bourguignon or chicken cordon bleu, with a variety of side dishes such as an autumn harvest salad, sweet potato salad and a white chocolate pumpkin brownie, to name a few. For those that fear the brisk, autumn weather, cruise boats have heated indoor seating and other amenities to make for an enjoyable experience. But be sure to look up from your food or take a turn around the decks to catch the spectacular views.
