Customer Reviews
We've stopped here once to check it out, but then drove a few more miles towards Blue Lakes and camped out in a nice meadow just a few yards off the road and close to the West Fork of the Carson River. Around 30 years ago, the second half of Blue Lakes Road was an "off road adventure" but then it was widened and paved.
We’d gone up to Hope Valley to enjoy the fall colors of the Aspen trees and were not disappointed.
My wife and I are currently staying at the Hope Valley Campground and are highly impressed with this year‘s host. He is extremely friendly, very active in overseeing the campground, keeps the bathrooms in very good condition and is very helpful!
Beautiful and calm. Lives up to its name HOPE
My family and I have camped here annually for the last three years. The first two years were great! The bathrooms were always clean enough and the campground is calm and family friendly. I just returned home from this year's annual family camping trip. Unfortunately, I don't have the same glowing review to share as usual. The camp host this year is a MISERABLE creep of a woman. She has no issues navigating that campground circle with a golf cart for the better part of each day. But when it comes to campground maintenance, she could use a refresher course. The bathroom floors were covered in dozens of flies and the trash dumpsters were overflowing. The. entire. weekend. The kicker: After we requested she, the camp host, clean the bathroom, she LOCKED it. I kid you not. She locked the bathroom and marked it closed for the entire day to spite us. What a far cry from the friendly woman last year that decorated pinecones and handed them out to the guests :)! Now, that lady was a delight!
