Historic Hope Cafe & Campground — Reviews

Beautiful spot. River ran through the camp. We saw a moose in the woods.

The tent could use something to hang a jacket on, and maybe a small side table. Otherwise., we appreciated the dry place to sleep!

Great place to get away. Campground was just right for us to enjoy time with friends. Explored the historic town of Hope, had a great brunch, and also a few beverages.

Great location, easy pull thru, and very friendly staff, but spaces are crowed for RVs with slide outs, and awnings. Lots of pot holes in the circular drive and some RV spots. Only a few spaces have their own picnic tables near them. But, the biggest disappointment was when reserving the spot on line, there is an additional charge to assure your spot is confirmed. Who does that? Sure feels like being gauged by the host before even arriving.

The setting is beautiful! There is not a bad spot to camp. The sites are fairly narrow. If you are in the center row, it can be challenging to turn in. There did seem to be some jockeying around of spots. Our friend had paid to be next to us and when she arrived there was someone in her spot. There is no staff to talk to or phone number to call if you need support. She ended up just parking in another spot. There was an accident on the highway so people didn’t show so she was able to stay for the night.

We love this campground. The hosts were so kind and accommodating. The only downside is that folks were loud very late. The views are amazing and Hope is just such a lovely little town. We had the best time!

Hosts were super nice but the campground needs a lot of work. Sites are separated by utility poles and there is not much room between sites.

I love the Seaview and want to support the new owner but was unimpressed with the management of the campground. I was over charged for our site on the app for some reason $50 which is way too much to pull our truck and camp in our truck. The price alone seemed really high to park cars. Then the camper next to us had put their tent slightly off the property. The tent had 2 kids. The manager woke up the kids in the tent at 5:30am to tell them to move and the kids never went back to sleep waking up everyone else around them. Why would the manager wake them up at 5:30 couldn’t they have corrected the problem in the evening. Also the out house was out of toilet paper and for paying 50$ for no toilet paper and no water again seems like a huge rip off. We paid for the view which was great but I would definitely would camp somewhere else next time. There’s many other great camp spots in Hope.

The campsite was wonderfully laid out for easy pull through with the RV. Many tent sites also available. We were greeted by the camp host and the area was clean with planted flowers everywhere. The location was beautiful and so peaceful and quiet.

Nice spot to take the family for a quiet place to relax and enjoy the sun. We hit this place on the fly as it was not well advertised. Had it not been for the groundskeeper we would have pulled away not knowing how to check in as there wasn’t a clear sign or directions to reserve a spot. We paid $50 dollars for an RV spot for the day, a bit high compared to $23 w/o electric at the federal campground a mile away. I imagine that is for everyone to decide its value. Since no shop was open, it may not have been worth the money but if you like to flick your line in the water, it’s well worth the cost! The water is 20 yards behind the campground! I would recommend the spot in June if you don’t like much of a crowd but not sure about July, I was told it’s filled to capacity. They just put in small tents along the river they intend on renting in the future. They seemed really close together unless a large group rents them out. Although they look very nice, 10-15 feet apart is a bit close for comfort when camping next to strangers. Nothing to consider. Enjoy!

Camp spot was great and everything was beautiful, but the guy who ran the campground could never be found. You just pop in and out every few hours, but otherwise was a ghost. Luckily we didn’t really need him so it worked out fine but that’s why I gave it four stars.

Our reserved campground was taken while we were at dinner so we weren’t able to camp there despite paying almost $100 for site lock, pet fees. Furthermore it is not staffed at all so there is no way of getting help if you need any. The owner responded to my email and offered a refund but then never hollered through. Waste of money. Could have just parked on the street for free and saved $100

It was wonderful! I know the cafe and bar didn’t open on time, but we still had a wonderful time. And the weather was amazing!

The vibe wis amazing, we truly loved the live band!

Pleasant place to stay at the end of a road. Had a powered site and it worked no problem. Spots are close together so be prepared to be close to your neighbor. Worked good for our group travel but might not be for everyone.
