A beautiful private 4 acre wooded lot with some gorgeous big old trees. Renting to one group of campers at a time. Base Camp is back in the woods with fire ring and benches. Wild life around, birds singing. Private area in the woods. Small seasonal creek at back of lot. Short drive to downtown Ithaca. This and all my camp sites are a work in progress. Driveway, port a potty, benches and fire ring and we are ready to get started!Pitch your tent in a forest with great privacy. You can hang out or go exploring, hiking, swimming, fishing, boating going towards Ithaca, Watkins Glen or lots of towns. You make to all 11 Finger Lakes within 1.5 hours, can get to 8 within an hour and 3 within 30 minutes. Hit the wine trails or Water Falls. Hit the bars or restaurants. Sit around in your tent with your "someone Special. Run the kids ragged so you can get some sleep. Cook out or hang your hemic. Bring you guitar or your 5th of Scotch. Many State and County Parks not far away. This part of NY is just great. Just one group at a time so you rule the forest!

Good Site

Tent · With kids

Great site, loved that it felt private and the dogs could be off leash, while we could park close to the tent which made camping with an infant much easier. The only downside was multiple piles of broken glass, which we tried to clean up or cover with objects so the dogs and toddler didn’t injure themselves. Would return to this site!

Bad e percent e

Tent · Group trip

I have never written a bad review and have stayed at many hip camps. We could not even stay here at all because of the very poor condition this place was in. This is not an example of what a hip camp should be. It was so disappointing and a waste of money.

Harvey Hill Camp! Awesome spot

Tent · Group trip

Was perfect to host our annual trip with friends. A really nice private little camp spot with lots of trees and shade. Awesome location and easy to get to. Appreciate the host’s flexibility and thoughtfulness in setting up the property. Will be back for sure!

The site was easy to find, had plenty of space for a large group to do both tent and hammock camping, and a cozy fire pit area to sit around. This is a very nice place to stay.
