Dear EscapeMakers -- It's the most beautiful time of the year! Whether you've been to Ithaca before, or have yet to visit, now is the time to explore! Constantly evolving, the Finger Lakes region always has new opportunities for you to experience. Fall Foliage at peak! There's still time to catch the last leaf peeping in New York State! Due to the lakes themselves (heat retention and air flow), the Finger Lakes has a more temperate climate compared to the rest of Upstate. This climate allows for a better growing season and extended leaf peeping opportunities. Take a hot air balloon ride or cruise the Cayuga Scenic Byway to explore Ithaca's beauty. Did you miss Cider Week? Fear not, you can experience cider year-round in Ithaca! With outdoor seating and socially distanced practices, Ithaca can welcome you safely. There are 7 cidery tasting rooms open for your enjoyment. Spend an afternoon at Eve's Cidery eating a farmer's lunch and being guided through a flight of artisan cider. Get away from it all, in Ithaca! We all have a reason to getaway, spend a week upstate, to return and reset in nature. Ithaca's mesmerizing waterfalls, meandering trails, and endless fresh air are just a quick trip away. No matter how many times you visit, it always has that wow-factor. Escape to the Finger Lakes!
