We stayed during mid-week so campground was extra quiet. Restrooms are brand new and sites were well spaced. Camp host was accommodating and helpful.

Bailee is a phenomenal host. Her communication goes above and beyond. An absolute pleasure to work with. This was our fourth time at the site. We keep coming back for so many reasons - the privacy, the tranquility, the well manicured site, the large space, the proximity to everything, the awesome fire pit….. . It’s extremely difficult to find another Hipcamp that is comparable.

The campground only has about a dozen or so spots. It was a pleasant space. It was a good place to stay 20 minutes to Ithaca. Shower could be larger (clean enough). Good price we were left alone and we left satisfied.

We enjoyed our site at junius ponds. It was further back in a more private wooded area. Easy access to the restrooms and showers. Both were very clean while we were there. Very friendly staff called to confirm when we booked a second night. They have a store and soft serve ice cream on site. Makes camping easy!

Our stay was great because the camp site was easy to access independently and it was clean, quiet and exactly what we expected! The young owners were eager to make everyone feel comfortable and satisfied with the bathrooms and showers (which were clean and comfortable with nice hot showers ) we walked our dogs in a beautiful field with mowed paths. Close to State Park and interesting day trips in the finger lakes! We will return!

Well maintained large campground with lots of seasonal units. As an overnighter, we were placed in the very back of the campground. It was beautiful and quiet. Lots of weekend activities going on with soft serve ice cream available in the camp store. 😋 Our WE site was only big enough for our 25’ motorhome which was fine. Bathrooms were a little walk away but immaculate.

Beautiful private campsite with full hook ups. Camp host communicated very well and checked to confirm we got there and set up okay. We loved the area and enjoyed the vineyards, farms, and hiking in the area. We even did a hot air balloon ride in Ithaca. Very cool experience. We enjoyed the private and peaceful evenings at the campsite and by the fire.
