Located at the fork of the Coeur d’Alene river, the Snake Pit has served as a boomtown bar, railroad layover, hotel, house of ill repute with it's famous "red eye" light in the cow skull to indicate the girls were open for business, and it was a starting point for loggers and miners of yesteryear.  The Snake Pit is for sale   and a close up of the historic restaurant.  It has an interesting wood entrance.  and the inside is much the same.  and another view showing bar area.  and yet another view of the retail t-shirt, memorabelia, and dining area.  ande one more.  and the piano and stage area for the musical entertainment such as bands, etc.  and there is outdoor dining as well with shade.  and the place looks beautiful from above.
