Firelight Camps

Welcome to Firelight Camps where we create a revitalizing, comfortable, and stylish camping experience. Pitched on the grounds of La Tourelle Resort and Spa in Ithaca, New York, these platform tents are furnished with hardwood floors, a king or queen bed with plush linens and safari-inspired furniture. Each tent includes a private balcony for soaking in the natural beauty with a good book, mug of coffee or a cocktail. You are greeted in the morning with a complimentary, locally-sourced continental breakfast served in the tented lobby. The camp store carries homemade s'mores kits. Otherwise, guests dine out or at The Bistro at La Tourelle or John Thomas Steakhouse, both on the grounds. During the day, you are invited to unwind on the surrounding trails of Buttermilk Falls State Park, in a hammock under the forest canopy or with a treatment at August Moon Spa (a short walk from your tent). For the adventurous, you can explore the Finger Lakes' famed vineyards, waterfalls and restaurants- or stay on the grounds for dinner at John Thomas Steakhouse. We spark the campfire at sundown, while a complimentary tasting awaits you at the bar. And as always, a homemade s'mores promise to sweeten the company of friends, family and new faces. Their newly renovated bath house is located just 400 ft from your tent. You'll find hot showers with changing rooms and full-length mirrors, flushing toilets and ample space to make yourself feel refreshed. Showers and bathrooms stalls are unisex, though there are two full, private bathrooms for those seeking more comfort. For your convenience, we provide local eco-friendly shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion and laundered towels.
