    About this House

    This amazing property begins at a gated entrance at the end of a dead end road for maximum privacy. The camp, with several additional outbuildings for equipment and storage, is the ultimate getaway that sits on top of a field nearly one mile off the road. With 17 years of professional land management following QDMA practices, the land offers a wide range of diversity for deer, turkey and small game hunting. Buck rubs and deer sign were evident throughout. In addition to multiple food plot locations, there are also open Agricultural fields as well as woodlots of mixed hardwoods and dense spruce. Strategically placed food plots are surrounded by areas of first successional forbs, with many wild apple trees, streams and stocked fish ponds in various locations around the property. There is an extensive trail system providing easy access, where the new owner can hike, ride horseback or ATV the former logging trails that weave through the thickets and discover the numerous deer trails and bedding areas throughout this property. The ag fields on the property provide ideal deer habitat as they provide opportunity for hay, pasture or crop production. Multiple stocked fish ponds are a short walk or ATV ride away and can be enjoyed for fishing or swimming, while they also serve to attract wildlife to the area. The diversity and combination of fields, brush, forbs, gentle sloping meadows as well as benches create a topography, along with the thick brush and woodlands that offer ideal diversity to attract and retain really nice bucks that feed and bed right on the property. There are four additional NYS Forests within 15 minutes of your private preserve, offering an additional 13,000+ acres for more hunting, fishing, camping, and miles of maintained trails for hiking, horseback riding, snowmobiling and cross-country skiing: Whitney Point Wildlife Management Area - 4157 acres, Hoxie Gorge State Forest - 2115 acres, Tuller Hill State Forest- 2497 acres, and James Kennedy State Forest - 4422 acres. Central New York and the Southern Tier are renowned for their outstanding wildlife management areas providing the ultimate experience for the outdoor lover. Dorchester Park, located on the Whitney Point Reservoir, 10 minutes away, has a public beach and boat launch onto the 1200 acre lake featuring great fishing and water sports. In addition, the Tioughnioga River is just 2 miles from this property and offers excellent fishing for trout, bass, pike, walleye and perch among other species; while, downhill skiing and snowboarding are available within 9 minutes of this camp at Greek Peak Mountain Resort. Cortland is located 20 minutes away, and Ithaca is just over 30 minutes away and home to Cornell University, Ithaca College and the longest of the Finger Lakes, Cayuga Lake, which is 38 miles long; second largest in NYS and provides water sports, beaches, as well as outstanding fishing for trout, bass, perch, northern pike and atlantic salmon. Award winning wineries, restaurants and artisanal shops along the Finger Lakes Wine Trail (America's first wine trail) and the best NYS waterfalls and outdoor recreation, including Buttermilk Falls State Park and Taughannock Falls State Park, are in the surrounding area. Binghamton is less than 30 minutes and New York City/George Washington Bridge is only just over 3 hours away. Binghamton, Ithaca and Syracuse offer international & regional airports within an hour or less for those traveling in from greater distances. What a unique opportunity to own a large hunting/recreational/agricultural use property with off grid cabin and outbuildings with trails systems in place and food plots to attract and retain whitetail, wild turkey as well as area wildlife to suit almost any outdoor adventurer, but still so close to amenities in Cortland, Finger Lakes and the Southern Tier.
