Lying at the junction of Route 202 and the Delaware River, the town of New Hope, Pennsylvania is a perfect romantic getaway destination and a shopper's paradise! Small, cozy and picturesque, New Hope overflows with local charm and character. From its boutique and restaurant-lined Main Street, to the colorful side streets, New Hope is a must-stop destination for those visiting Bucks County.
New Hope's primary industry is tourism. On weekends, the streets are crowded with tourists visiting the many restaurants, boutique shops, antique shops and art galleries, or taking the popular walk along the river and the Delaware Division of the Pennsylvania Canal. Compared to surrounding communities, New Hope has a vibrant nightlife, although most businesses are required to close for the night by 2:00 AM. In the off season, this little hamlet slows its pace a bit, but still retains its charm.
New Hope’s gay and lesbian hotels, inns, guesthouses and bed and breakfast accommodations are limited but there are gay friendly hotels, inns, guesthouses and bed and breakfasts for the gay and lesbian traveler to choose from.
And there’s plenty to do too. Located in an attractive historic mill, The Bucks County Playhouse features a constant stream of plays and musical productions. New Hope was once a popular spot for Broadway shows to be tested and fine-tuned, and many notable stage actors bought weekend homes in the area. It was also home to an art colony, founded by Edward Redfield and William L. Lathrop. New Hope is also a terminal point on the New Hope & Ivyland Railroad. On weekends, tourists can ride the historic and scenic line through Bucks County.
In the 1950’s New Hope grew to become a popular gay resort and today New Hope still has an active and large gay and lesbian community. A common joke among locals was that the town had no hardware store, but three gay bars. Ironically, New Hope also has somewhat of a reputation as a hangout for hard-core motorcyclists (bikers) on weekends in the warmer months.
So, if you’re looking for a romantic weekend or a longer vacation of relaxation, fun, history, art and good country living, New Hope, Pennsylvania has a lot to offer the gay and lesbian community.
