Although it's not final just yet it looks extremely positive that the New Hampshire based Planet Fitness chain will be opening a location in Coeur d' Alene. A franchisee who operates other locations in Idaho & Utah is negotiating for a space in the Coeur d' Alene Town Center shopping center, corner of Best Ave & N. Government Way .
Plans are for the new Coeur d' Alene Planet Fitness to open as early as the second quarter of 2017. Exact size and location ( in the plaza.. ) of the fitness center is still be worked on so we will re-post when the time gets closer with all of those details.
This will be the first Planet Fitness in North Idaho but the third in the Inland Northwest. One location is already open at 13112 E. Sprague in Spokane Valley and another should be open before this one in the former Albertson's store on Northwest Blvd in Northwest Spokane. And, to answer everyone's questions we don't have the opening date for the Northwest Blvd. location just yet...
Planet Fitness is a unique, more laid back format of fitness center that has made it one of the largest and most popular spots to get fit in the US. The chain today has over 1000 locations nationwide and even began an international expansion with locations in Canada and the Dominican Republic. Planet Fitness locations are large with many kinds of machines , gym access and staff available 24 hours a day and memberships that much cheaper then most of the other fitness centers out there.
We'll likely have more on this new fitness center in the near future so stay tunes to this site. And, for more information on the company itself visit their website at-
