Our property is located at the top of a large mountain nestled in a breathtaking natural Glen built by millions of years of erosion. Are beautiful spring feed creekway runs through the property with winding trails. A great place to escape the city and enjoy nature. Wild life surrounds this gully with morning and evening visits from deer and other creatures. So far away but still close enough to grab dinner 15 minutes to Ithaca or cookout on our private fire-pits or bbq grill. You will have access to a spring feed shallow pond at the top of the property. A short hike away. Remember this is a ravine. Bring hiking boots or sneakers and water shoes for those adventurous times. You will have access to the hemlock and fern forest, blackwalnut trail, the Vintage Orchards and Raspberry Fields(coming soon), the gull, ravine and creekway. As well as access to a public discovery area. We have free parking on sites. There is no traditional electricity. Water can be collected and transported to sites from the water connections. We do not have showers facilities built yet but will have them up by next season (solar shower available). , some sites are vehicle pull-up and others are walk-in sites. You can pitch your tent or hang a hammock in the trees.(we will be building platforms and have preset up tents and cabins available next season. As well as winter getaway camping(winter2024). We are also improving your experience everyday. Come and visit a non cramped, very well spaced out more private nature experience. We have a beautiful place and would like to enjoy it with others. You can have a private stay or hit the trails and make a new friend even if it's a chipmunk... Most sites are under the tree line and not in an open field. We allow one vehicle per site others can be parked at parking area at entrance. We offer a sunrise , sunset public viewing area for breathtaking sky color shows and tree dances from the wind. We do remind you we are a wilderness camp and all camps are in the forest under trees and on rocks, dirt, grass, moss and sticks.( Sites are cleared for use) This is nature and you should understand the risk and respect nature for itself. We can not guarantee your safety from falls, slips and bumps(we do have first aid available) but if you follow simple protocol, have a bit of nature smarts you can have a great memorable experience here at The Glen. Please remember this is a hiking mountain. With small trails for beginners and 1k, 2k, and 5k trails for expert mountaineers. We have over 50 acres. With 35 accessable acres and clearly marked boundary lines for you to explore. Some parts of the property do not receive cell service like down in the creekway. Please bring a power pack and vehicle chargers to use any electricity you need from your vehicle. Also bring flashlights the moon is bright but when she is not in the sky , it's very dark to the eye. Cooking supplies wood be a good idea as well. This is a wildlife camp and there is wildlife. Please secure all food and drinks. Cleanup trash and don't leave anything behind. Please do not secure or puncture anything in the trees or living plants. This is a vintage orchard that has food growing everywhere around you. We ask that you respect nature and the planet and animals around you. We have a zero tolerance for negativity in these areas. We want to provide a safe and clean space where others can enjoy nature and have a peacefully stay away from the busy gogogogo life. Please respect the other visitors by keeping quiet to allow nature to speak for awhile. We are not super, earthy, overbearing people we just want everyone to enjoy and respect the land and each other. Thanks and we hope you have a great stay.
