Such a unique experience! Highly recommend! It's such a inviting and cozy atmosphere. It's the perfect location to explore during the day and relax by the fire in the evening.

The property was a great glamping situation. The main “lobby” tent had power and charging stations. The complimentary breakfast had a good selection for there being no kitchen. The s’mores and hotdog to roast on the firepit was very fun! Love that there’s a bar. Great for friend groups, couples, and families. For the further tents I wish there was some sort of outhouse closer to be able to use the bathroom in the middle of the night.

A very unique experience! The location allows walking opportunities to good food at the restaurant on the grounds and an upscale Spa. All areas of the grounds and facilities where clean and well kept. Signs of LGBTQ acceptance with safe place physical signage and unisex bathroom option. Every part of this trip was relaxing and enjoyable! Check in before dark or bring a lantern. Grounds are dark at times in between motion sensor path lights. Once you’ve been to your room you will have a portable lantern to use

I’ve been here several times and love it here. My only feedback is that staff attentive to communal fire as I think that’s what makes Firelight Camp special- the connections made around that fire pit. It should be lit from early morning to late night.

Everyone should go glamping!
We simply loved our time at Firelight Camp! It was such a beautiful setting, and they think of everything to make your experience complete. We met wonderful people at the campfire, went hiking and wine tasting, then enjoyed our wine on our glamping deck. The staff was very friendly and helpful - we will definitely be back!

Beautiful place!!! Calm and peaceful. The bathrooms and showers are well maintained. Staff is really friendly. Lots of games to keep kids busy. We stayed in two queen beds tent (without electricity) Most of the rooms are without electricity, they provide lamps. No heat in the room, but sufficient blankets to keep you warm. The only thing is, the common bathrooms are a bit far if you need to use them in the night. Our overall stay was amazing and my daughter enjoyed a lot, especially the campfire.

Sure, here's a sample review for a camping trip: I recently had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful campsite and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The location was absolutely stunning - nestled in the heart of nature, surrounded by towering trees and crystal-clear streams. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always willing to lend a hand and answer any questions I had. They went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable as possible, ensuring that I had everything I needed to enjoy my time in the great outdoors. The amenities were top-notch - clean and well-maintained, with plenty of hot water and comfortable sleeping arrangements. All in all, I had an incredible experience at this campsite and would definitely return in the future. If you're looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway, surrounded by nature and filled with adventure, then this is the perfect place for you.

The area and location are beautiful and perfect for a relaxing weekend away! The breakfast was great, they had fire starter kits to use to make your own fire if you didn’t want to be by the main one, and the s’mores kits provided were adorable and delicious! Everyone in staff was kind, helpful, and ensured we had a great stay and had everything we needed! I can’t wait to share with all my friends and family and to come back!!

Overall really nice
tent was nice, weather was OK, but that made a tent stay even better. Staff were friendly if a little disengaged. Amenities were good and it was as clean as a camp site can be - the washrooms were nice. Fire pits were awesome.

Overall we enjoyed our experience ! The campfire was nice for a cool crisp evening. Not many food options considering we arrived later in the evening so had to order dinner. Breakfast was nice and the staff was amazing. Only draw back in breakfast I would say would be it would have been nice to have somw meat options.

This place is a gem. The tents are safe and adorable. The staff is friendly and the bathrooms and showers were extremely well maintained. Cleaner then most hotels I’ve stayed at. Fun for family trips, a trip with your buddies or a romantic getaway. The bar had great affordable drinks. There is an entrance to Buttermilk falls right on the property. The car is not too far from where you stay which was nice since we used it to charge our phone (no electricity in the tents obviously) We will definitely return!

FRESH AIR RETREAT
This is our 3rd year in a row coming here and we even invested in helping it to grow. We love it because of the fresh air and to unplug. The best part is the friends you make around the campfire at night. Think about it - in a hotel, you go to your room and watch TV. Here, you have real conversations with people and enjoy each other's company. It's a lot of laughs and good stories. And don't worry, there's a bar and s'mores too. Everyone, please realize you are staying in a tent in the woods. So the weather can be a factor as can bugs and animals. The tent has a real king or 2 queen beds. Only 2 tents have electric for a heater but don't let that change your mind on coming to stay at this wonderful place as you can bring HOTHANDS packs and request a hot water bottle to take back for your bed like the Amish do. And IT WORKS!!! They will also charge your gadgets for you, should you not want to totally unplug. Even better, finish off your stay with the spa at the hotel on the same property. Also make sure you check out the Ithaca Farmers Market for great food and good people!
