Best place in Ithaca
Sep 2021
Look at the view, need I say more? Cornell's campus is stunning as hell and there's plenty of things to do if you are not a student (which I am in fact, a student LOL). Not trying to be biased here but our campus has so much to offer, from the eateries, to the buildings, to the amazing views at the slope.

Beautiful Campus
Oct 2021
While I was exploring Ithaca, I drove through several parts of the campus. It is truly a beautiful place and I'm sure the students love it.

The Botanical Garden!
Sep 2021
Enormous (a car is helpful), but portions are completely walkable. Stunningly beautiful and immaculately maintained.

Stunning campus!
Aug 2021 • Family
Absolutely stunning campus to walk around & explore! The kids loved the dam & lake & all the open areas to run around in. Beautiful architecture & flowers with wide views at the top looking down on Ithaca and Cayuga Lake. Paid parking available via an app I several areas.

I walked around Cornell for a day with two (2) friends who graduated from this institution. The campus is beautiful with many bridges, hills, plants, brilliant architecture, and waterfalls.

World’s Most Beautiful Campus
Jul 2021 • Family
Okay, I’m an alumnus, and my son is a prospective student, so I’m biased, but Cornell really is a big and beautiful campus. We spent three nights at The Statler, and toured most of campus between visits to local state parks. The architecture is mixed and always interesting. The green-spaces, gardens, and adjacent gorges are stunning, as are the distant views of Cayuga Lake. It was wonderful to return, and I hope to do so again soon.

stunning!

Could be one of the most beautiful campus in the USA! LOTS of falls to see, and hiking trails to explore! The architecture is wonderful, and there are many dinning options close by.

So many offerings at Cornell you will need a variety of days. Sad that the gift shop wasn’t open. Port a potty availability.

Beautiful buildings with beautiful gardens.
Apr 2021 • Family
WOW! Magnificent buildings.
My family and came to visit Cornell...we read about the school before we came.
Wear comfortable shoes. There's a lot bills, the building are somewhat close together but a lots of walking.
The buildings are gorgeous! We were not able to go inside the building because of Covid restrictions.
The lawns were green. They have beautiful gardens where students can sit and study.

Is it open for the public or you can only get it with a tour?

The campus is quite large and there are fees to access some areas. The hostess at our B&B (William Henry Miller Inn) supplied us with a map and suggested going to then Gardens and the Art Gallery which has a great views of the valley from the upper floors. It's a beautiful hillside campus with metered parking everywhere.
Is there a recomended way to walk through the campus

Sign up for a tour. They are student led and you will learn some interesting facts that otherwise you wouldn't have known. The students do a fantastic job and then you can revisit other areas, ask questions and head out on your own.
