ENAVILLE, Idaho — Times have changed a lot over the last 140 years, but in Enaville, there’s been one constant: The Snake Pit.
The beloved go-to spot "up the river" has been a saloon, railroad layover, hotel, logging landmark, brothel and restaurant.
As the area changed from boomtown to ghost town, the venue owners managed to carve out quarters to stay relevant for locals and visitors passing through the area.
Today, the location has transformed from a mining bar to a recreational hub as the popularity of the North Fork of the Coeur d’Alene River and addition of the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes has grown traffic through the area.
