Description

Previously "Wylder Hope Valley" - now under new management

Signature to DH Hope Valley, our 28 fully refurbished, historic cabins range in modest to abundant in size and are brimming with appeal, boasting cozy fireplaces, well-appointed kitchens and tons of rustic, mountain charm.

Luxury Yurts

Sleeps 4-6. These portable, insulated dwellings, ranging in size from 20-25ft, feature King Beds, partition bathrooms, futon couches, deep soaking tubs and gorgeous skylights for a truly glamorous camping trip.

Off-Grid Yurt

Sleeps 2. A more modest setup, our off-grid yurt is a 16ft dwelling perfect for two. Without electricity and running water, you’ll stay cozy via the indoor fireplace and satiated via the outdoor fire ring and grill.

Airstream Glamping Trailer

Sleeps 4. This rehabbed retro trailer will send you straight back to the days of yesteryear. Boasting a queen bed, pull out couch, private front deck and picnic tables, all you have to do is put on Steely Dan and enjoy the mountain breeze.

Campsites

Sleeps 2-4. Connect your RV to our water and electric hookups, or go rustic and pitch a tent for two to four. Our two campsite styles both feature fire rings with grills, access to campground bathrooms, and bear boxes for all campers.

Great location & amenities

This is a privately owned Resort with cabins, yurts, campsites, etc close to a super awesome river and with lots of great amenities, including a cafe/store, sauna, trails and a restaurant. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because I didn't love the site itself that we were in especially with a $60 price tag. It was great to be close to the river, but the site was small and on a hill like a lot of them were. There were cheaper sites but I didn't see what those were like. Otherwise, we had fun playing in the water, using the sauna and having access to great amenities before going into more primitive camping. There was a fire ban while we were there, and there is NO SMOKING anywhere on their property. Everyone that worked there was super friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our stay.
