Buttermilk Falls State Park Campground

Buttermilk Falls State Park Campground offers 51 campsites accommodating tents and RVs with electrical hookups, located in Tompkins County near Ithaca with direct access to Buttermilk Creek and its iconic 600-foot cascading waterfall.

The campground provides essential amenities including showers, restrooms, dump stations, and is situated within a park featuring 10 waterfalls, hiking trails, and a small lake (Lake Treman) suitable for fishing.

Reservations can be made up to 9 months in advance, with campsites available from mid-May through mid-October, though sites often sell out quickly due to proximity to Ithaca and nearby state parks.
