Hope Rentals

I first found a page that had some pretty basic stats about the town. Hope is located in the southern section of the province, and has about 7000 or so people. It is in one of the most perfect locations. There are some absolutely spectacular mountains in the area, as well as crystal-blue rivers and lush forests.

There are a lot of truly beautiful places in Canada - too many to count actually. I created this site to give myself an excuse to discover all of the great places in Canada, and hopefully to be able to visit as many as I can. It was a pleasure learning more about Hope, British Columbia. A small town for sure, and one that I had honestly never heard of before someone wanted to list a property on my site. Usually, my standard operating procedure is that if I add a new page on the site, I also write about it a bit and try to add some photos to it. This way, if a home or apartment listing on that page expires or is removed, there is still some good stuff for the visitor to look at.

The Fraser and Coquihalla river meet in this area. Vancouver is just a hop and a skip away too. You can get there in just a few hours, so if you have a craving for some sushi, you can get some by lunchtime! My next stop in my "discovery" of Hope was their official site. The site immediately starts talking about what a great place it is to live, and also solicits anyone thinking of moving there with a welcome message. It talks about the breath-taking scenery, the recreational opportunities in the surrounding area and in terms of the town itself, they pitch their modern facilities like their recreation centre. The town is rustic, but modern at the same time. The downtown is very clean, pretty and set against an amazing backdrop of mountains. There are some progressive stores and businesses there. You actually don't have to go all the way to Vancouver for Sushi. They have a place in Hope right downtown. The chamber of commerce is a welcoming place, with pamphlets and brochures about the area, and maps to help you plot your "home scouting" route. The nice folks there will help you with any questions. The Hope library is also a very inviting building with quite a modern look to it. And believe it or not, Hope has an airport. You won't find TWA flying in here, as it is mostly geared towards smaller and private planes.
