Silverwood Theme Park
Silverwood Theme Park is an amusement park located near the city of Athol in northern Idaho, United States, near the city of Coeur d'Alene, approximately 47 miles (76 km) from Spokane, Washington on US 95. The park opened on June 20, 1988. Originally, the park included a small assortment of carnival rides, a "main street" with shops and eateries, and an authentic steam train that traveled in a 30-minute loop around the owner's property. From 1973 to 1988, the land, along with a fully functioning airstrip, was operated as the Henley Aerodrome, named after the family from whom Norton bought it in 1981.
Over the years, Silverwood has grown in both size and popularity, transforming from a small local amusement park to a regional theme park destination. In 2003, an adjacent waterpark named Boulder Beach Water Park was opened. Entrance to Boulder Beach is included with admission to Silverwood. In 2009, Silverwood began an annual Halloween event called Scarywood, held during evenings in the month of October. In November, 2025, Herschend Family Entertainment announced a signed exclusive term sheet to acquire Silverwood Theme Park. On March 27, 2026, the sale was completed and Herschend Family Entertainment became the new owner.
Today, Silverwood is the largest theme and water park in the American Northwest. 413 acres (167 ha) It has more than 70 rides, slides, shows, and attractions. It is also the northernmost theme park in the United States. In 2019, Silverwood co-hosted (along with Rocky Mountain Construction) the Golden Ticket Awards.
In 2009, Silverwood opened Scarywood Haunted Nights, nighttime entertainment consisting of scare zones and mazes. In 2010, Scarywood returned on a larger scale. The main attractions for Scarywood include: Blood Bayou, an indoor haunted attraction; Chuckles 3D Sideshow, an outdoor haunt ; several scare zones and other walk through as well as the Timber Terror: Backwards. In 2020, due to concerns with Covid-19, Scarywood was cancelled. The park did remain open weekends in October without the scary theming though. Scarywood Haunted Nights returned in 2021 with one new haunted house - Pharaoh's Curse. In 2024, Scarywood added a new outdoor haunt, The Swine.
