Ithaca has a number of well-regarded NY state Parks in the area, I was a little conflicted which one to see. We ended up visiting Taughannock Falls State Park on the advice we received from the owners of the B&B we were staying at. This is an amazing park with falls that give it its name. There are two ways to see the falls. The first one we stopped at is an overlook area which gives a great vista of the falls and gorge (Parking here is free), from this you can also hike the rim trail (we did not), there is also a gift shop, park info and restrooms. The second one is located near the lower falls, with a paid parking lot, the fee is $8, no charge if you have the empire pass like we do. From this lot you can take a very easy hike along a well-traveled gravel trail to get a great view of the falls. This trail is a very easy hike/walk being mainly flat with only a short incline here and there. One can also leave the trail a bit and walk on the limestone bed closer to the river if the water isn't too high. After 3/4 of a mile you arrive at the falls, being the tallest single drop waterfall east of the Rockies they are magnificent, The gorge is also beautiful with its steep cliffs and rock formations. It seems this trail can get crowded at times, it wasn’t overly so when we visited so it didn’t bother us. Also nearby is the shore of Cayuga Lake, just walk over and you get some great lakeside views, there is also a small concession stand along with some picnic tables. This park is a must visit if you are in the area.

Bet the Farm Winery began as a dream in 2006 to showcase the best in wine & food in the Finger Lakes and New York State. It has evolved into a boutique-scale winery; current production approaches 1200 cases per vintage year. Winemaker Nancy Tisch moved her wine production to a new winery & vineyard 10 minutes north of Ithaca, NY in 2018, featuring a tasting area overlooking the vineyard with Cayuga Lake and hills of Lansing and Dryden beyond. Nancy is assisted in her operations by husband & GM Kit Kalfs. Wine and food flights continue to be a highlight of sampling Nancy’s fruit-forward, complex and elegant wines.

Perfect way to spend mid to late afternoon pre dinner. Wine tasting (4 varieties) paired with cheese and chocolate nibbles while sitting on Adirondack easy chairs in the shade looking out over vineyard and distant hills. Owner very friendly and informed. We left with a Pinot Gris for $20.
