"The Flamingo Motel in downtown Coeur d'Alene is a kitschy relic of the Lake City's long standing history as a tourist mecca," writes Kerri Thoreson/OnLocation North Idaho. "For most of the motor hotel's half century it was Pepto pink but now is painted a more modern neutral. The U-shaped configuration of the 13 rooms allows for guest parking at each door. I recently noticed the addition of this fun mileage sign near the Flamingo's sidewalk on Sherman Avenue."
