Our waterfront looks over Hope Lake, home to largemouth bass, osprey, muskrats, blue herons, and more. Swimmers in the morning will see the sun rise over the lake. Boaters in the evening can see the sun set behind the mountains. Hope Lake is a haven for Scouts and Scouters looking to splash around, cool off, or enjoy the natural beauty.
