Great place and we enjoyed the time. Slow internet, no dresser space in any rooms, and loud road noise kept us from leaving 5 stars.

We loved our getaway to Hope Valley in mid-July. This home is beautiful and had everything we needed for a great stay. There were only four of us, so we had plenty of room to spread out, but six would have fit well. We absolutely hope to return. The house is conveniently located across from the Desolation Valley Hotel where we enjoyed drinks on the patio and dinner one night. It's also near great hiking and many lakes for paddle boarding / canoeing. We enjoyed a morning at Caples Lake where they rent kayaks. The only downside of this location is the road noise. Luckily, the windows are thick, and the river drowns out much of the sounds when sitting outside. Thank you to the owners for sharing your beautiful home!
