This place is amazing. The staff is so welcoming and accomodating. The tent was clean, beautiful and spacious. Bath area was a tad famurther away from ourvtent, but the facilities were excellent. There were plenty of areas around the property to relax and enjoy nature, hammocks, pucnic tables, fire pit areas. Great trails for hiking. So close to downtown Ithaca, state parks,restaurants and shopping. I highly recommend visiting.
