Review of Hope Island (Mason)
It is easy to see why Hope Island in southern Puget Sound is a popular destination for those wanting the adventure of island camping. A small forest campground is located right off the south beach near the park ‘entrance’, with a rack for canoe/kayak storage. The loop trail around the island is wonderful with a variety of trees and birds. Highly recommended!
