Weekend Trip to Christmas Tree Farm Hidden Delight
We had an amazing last-minute stay at Mary’s place. Our pups loved having the freedom to roam off leash, and it was so nice to relax by the tent and take in the fall scenery. The woodstove kept us cozy all night, and Mary was very kind and responsive throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be back!

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.

Weekend Trip to The Spotted Sandpiper
Spent 3 nights in Glamp 1 in October of 2025. It was 40s at night and rained 2 of the nights, but we stayed warm with the heater (and an electric blanket we brought)! It was dry inside the tent despite the rain. Area is beautiful. Due to weather, didn't spend any time on the lake, but did make use of the shower areas, which worked well - hot water and shower/bathroom walkable from Glamp 1. Kate answered all questions before and during the stay. Shampoo/conditioner and towels provided. Great affordable glamping experience!!

Our experience at The Christmas Tree Farm Hidden Delight was absolutely wonderful. Mary was a fantastic host. She was friendly and thorough in her communication, even recommending places to enjoy in the area. We arrived later in the day and were thrilled that she had started a fire in the woodstove inside the tent and had also started a campfire for us. So very thoughtful and a fabulous surprise. The site itself is incredibly private with amazing views. The firewood she provided was dry and plentiful, a bonus since it was a bit chilly for much of our visit. It was great to be able to have the dogs off leash too. We enjoyed our time immensely and highly recommend the site. Thank you, Mary!

The site is gorgeous! Mary was super kind and explained everything about the trails and campsite very well. The canvas tent was so cozy and there is so much room for other tents, outdoor games, and sitting around the fire. We will definitely be returning in the future! ❤️

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Happy Hours. It was private, quiet, and peaceful yet close to coffee shops, hiking, restaurants, wineries, and breweries, etc. Our dogs enjoyed the property as well. We would definitely stay there again!!!

Weekend Trip to The Spotted Sandpiper
We loved glamping at Spotted Sandpiper! We had all of the necessities and more at our tent site. You can’t beat the view of Lake Cayuga—we loved going down to the dock for sunset every night. It’s also very close to Taughannock State Park and a short drive from Ithaca.

The lakeside campsite offers extremely nice views, and the location is ideal given it’s close to some nice breweries and restaurants. A few caveats though - the site was not cleared when we arrived. Tall weeds and stones had to be moved to set up and there were deer bones everywhere. I’m not sure if we were the first people to set up there but it was clear nothing was done to prep for us or anyone to use the space. The dock was also covered in bird poop that had been there for at least a few months given the state of it. Given the price for this site (over $100 / night) these should have been things that were taken care of. Also, no place to discard trash given the price is also a little wild. The host is responsive and was able to answer all of our questions quickly. One last note on the cabin. It’s small but it is in decent shape. However, like the campsite, it wasn’t cleaned before anyone got there, so we had to sweep it out before using. The cabin itself will not fit a queen air mattress but will fit a full. It could also probably hold about 4 people on sleeping pads for reference. The area by the cabin is not flat enough to set up a tent and sleep comfortably. You can only set up a tent below by the lake and can fit one to two (3-4 person) tents, if setting up carefully.

I loved tent camping at the spotted sandpiper. The tent was comfortable and had everything we needed. I especially loved they had so many things we could use on the water…kayaks, paddle boards, life jackets, floats, and the lake was beautiful! I would def stay here again.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for three nights and we absolutely loved it!!! Gorgeous views, not a lot of bugs, and it was private.
We utilized the kayaks that Melissa had and went for a sunset paddle which was truly beautiful. We sat on the dock and just enjoyed the scenery. The town is only 15 minutes away and there are a ton of restaurants with amazing food. I would highly recommend staying here if you’re looking to stay at the Finger Lakes!

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.

2 nights at The Spotted Sandpiper
The glamping tents were beautiful, well stocked and way beyond what I was expecting. Fresh towels, a day bed with trundle, TV, fridge, the works. Wonderful amenities, especially for the price! Easy and beautiful lake access, and access to kayaks and canoe. Check-in and check out was really simple, and directions clear. Welcoming, friendly, beautiful and peaceful.
