About Potlatch

Potlatch sits right where the rolling wheat fields of the Palouse meet the thick pine forests of north-central Idaho. Originally built as a lumber company town in the early 1900s, it has settled into a quiet, welcoming community with a rich timber heritage and classic historic homes. Daily life is peaceful and surrounded by nature, with the Palouse River winding through town and the amenities of Moscow and Pullman just a half-hour drive south.
