I have a 2001 accord with 203K miles. I am experiencing a wheel hop while accelerating on the front right drive wheel. I have had no front end work done or new struts. Should I be leaning towards the control arm or strut?

Describe wheel hop. Regardless, struts are likely shot. With that mileage, I would also replace the front wheel bearings and lower ball joints.

Constant shaking until speed is reached the smooths out

What shakes? If it's wheel bounce, then it's definitely struts. The effects will show on the tires, which will then amplify the bounce.
