Had such a lovely stay with Jackie and Chris. Not only were they super accommodating of our last minute booking, they moved our campsite to one safer and dryer in the weather. We spent a beautiful cozy night despite the rain, we even got to have a little fire before it got too wet! Wood bundles for purchase are large and generous. Got to meet both Chris and Jackie and felt like we'd known them for years. Highly recommend this sweet little spot-- we'll be back!!

My group of 8 gals had an absolute blast camping over the Labor Day weekend on Chris & Jackie’s property. They had everything we needed - firewood, a grill, tiki torches, a portable bathroom, drinking water, and a great sink that made washing dishes so easy. Chris and Jackie were both so kind and helpful, and they answered any questions we had about the campsite and getting to the state park. Each campsite was spread out enough that we really felt like we had our own personal haven. We enjoyed campfire songs, stargazing, and of course, Chris’s cool car collection. It was a perfect way to end the summer. Thank you Chris & Jackie for everything! :)

We had a great time camping on Chris and Jackie's land. The campground area is wide open, with soft grass, perfect for the kids to run and play all the games we brought. The picnic tables, located right near the fire pit, were a convenient way to set up our meals, the other campsites were not too close, and the Wi-Fi was surprisingly strong. Chris and Jackie are wonderful hosts, willing to help in any way they can. I would recommend this camping spot for groups; it feels like you have your own private campground.

My wife, our dog and I loved the solitude and peace at this cabin. The property was close to amenities but still felt isolated, and the spotty cell signal was actually a big help in getting detached from the distraction of our devices/ social media etc. There was a small issue in accessing the generator but the owner was kind, responsive , understanding, and clearly wanted us to be happy so that more than made up for it. Would definitely go back.

Very friendly hosts. Nice open, flat, grassy places to put the tent. Water, portable toilets, and electric are available. Dark sky’s for star gazing. Close to Ricketts Glen and other places of interest.

The property was well maintained and comfortable and Chris and Jackie were so hospitable, always stopping by to make sure we had all we needed. Our site had plenty of space and the property does not hold a lot of campers so we never felt like we were “apartment camping.” We were traveling with young kids and the nice open space was great for them to play baseball, soccer, lacrosse, etc. we also had two dogs with us and they were so happy to be on cozy grass with a wooded area close by. My family thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and we were close to all the activities we wanted to participate in.

Weekend Trip to What Ever Floats Your Boat
“What Ever Floats Your Boat” was exactly what my group of three needed -- no more, no less.
Space & amenities: Plenty of room, and the big circular table in the center is board‑game heaven.
Generator: Started right up every time and ran smoothly.
Heat: We never got the wall‑mounted heater to cooperate, but temps were mild so it wasn’t an issue. (A short printed guide, or darker Sharpie, would help here.)
Signage: Nearly every potentially confusing switch or valve has a handwritten label, which is great, but many are fading and a bit terse. A quick rewrite in bold marker would make them fool‑proof.
We’re still dying to know how a small yacht ended up marooned in a forest outside Ithaca, if you’ve got the story, please share it in the listing!
Bottom line: Quirky, comfortable cabin with reliable power, loads of tabletop real estate, and only minor issues that didn't impact the quality of our stay. We’d book again.

The hosts were great. They land was beautiful and the wild life was out, specifically deer and a lot of woodpeckers. They delivered the firewood and water down to us. Made sure we had what we needed but respected our space

What a gem of a spot! Aarons land was amazing! The fire pit is right next to the creek so when you’re sitting by the fire, you have that sound - it will relax you. Just a couple minutes walk up that creek you’ll come across a mini waterfall and what a sight to see! There were plenty of camp chairs inside and pleasantly surprised to find everything else you’d pretty much need to camp/cook, minus the food. But 9minute drive back to town has a grocery store/gas station/pizzeria/dollar general all next to each other. If you want a spot to camp away from society, this is the perfect spot. I’m already planning to come back and I honestly cannot wait!
