If your planning to hit as many falls as possible, camp at buttermilk falls in Ithaca. Beautiful campground.

BUTTERMILK FALLS STATE PARK, NY

Buttermilk Falls State Park takes its name from the foaming cascade formed by Buttermilk Creek as it flows down the steep valley side toward Cayuga Lake. The upper park has a small lake; hiking trails through woodlands and along the gorge and rim; picnic areas; and playing fields.

What are the must hit waterfalls? I could not find a camp site at Buttermilk Falls but was able to get one at Cayuga for the long weekend.

I plan to mostly hike and I hope the weather behaves.

If you're making the drive down to Buttermilk Falls, maybe you can add in some time to check out Watkins Glen State Park as well.

Robert Tremont was our favorite
Especially full hike.
Never got to Cornell one but hit most public ones. Locals say many non posted but if you hit public one you won't be disappointed.

Looks perfect. That's not cheating at all. You can always go back to the tent. Raystown Lake at Seven Points?

Yep we're not giving up on the tent entirely. This was a different experience but lots of fun. This was just in front of the house but we went to swartswood for the weekend as a trial run. Big road trip through new york planned for this summer that were excited for.
