About the host
Hosted by Eshay Rausch
My life's work has included designing and implementing outdoor spaces and activities that are inclusive and anti-biased for families, children and adults to connect with nature and each other. Camp Earth Connection started as a children's camp and in 2015 evolved into a Woodland Campground & Retreat and Environmental Educational Center. Camp Earth Connection provides a welcoming space to all, with a warm welcome to individuals who identify as LGBTQ, as well as people from the BIPOC Community who may not have always felt safe in wilderness settings; And to all people who want to share a peaceful and amazing experience in nature.
Why they chose this property
Camp Earth Connection, my home is located in a beautiful forest setting. If you love being outdoors, and enjoy the peace and tranquility of nature you will love these properties. Also unique, is that the entire facility is alcohol and drug free. I believe this land offers a sacred place to rejuvenate, rest, heal and have fun.
For fun there are 20 miles of forest trails for hiking, mountain biking and cross-country skiing. You will also see horses on the trails. Just 20 minutes from the cabin is Greek Peak ski resort for down hill skiing. After a long day skiing or biking, enjoy the two person hot-tub on the porch. Ithaca is also just 20 minutes away, and offers three state parks with beautiful gorges, falls and trails. Wonderful eateries are nearby including the famous Moosewood restaurant.

What makes this property unique
Enjoy the beautiful views surrounding the cabin. The trails are amazing - as a past cross country trail runner and avid hiker/walker, I have enjoyed exploring all of them over the years, and they never cease to bring me joy and peace. Wildlife is abundant due to the diverse forest. From barred owls, to coyotes, to glow worms and fireflies- this is a nature lovers paradise. For folks who appreciate a sober environment, they will enjoy all of the facilities which are alcohol and drug free.
