My son goes to college nearby, and I was looking for a place we could play and get through our round as fast as possible, as we had afternoon plans. I checked their website for tee times, and EVERY time was available from 8-4, so I banked on us getting through our round pretty quickly which ended up being the case. It was cool, but not cold and calm and quiet, really nice. Like others have stated, cart paths need work, and some of the signs on the holes look like Halloween decorations.Some of the tee boxes are weird, some are muddy, some are not entirely flat, but the layout is pretty good and the greens were in great shape, especially for it being late October. The veiws with foliage are spectacular, and $32 for 18 with a cart on a weekend is what kicked it up to 4 stars for me.

The signage needs updating. we had a difficult time navigating the course. Some of the tee boxes are in complete shambles. You'd need a hammer to put your tee into the ground. The cart paths are disastrous and borderline dangerous, tree roots, rocks, uneven and uncomfortable to drive on. It was slow that day so we didn't have anyone pushing us but we did have to wait for a foursome of kids with very foul mouths. Some beautiful scenery for sure. The money we spent there was very high for the conditions we endured. we like to try different courses and I can say honestly we won't be returning to Fillmore Glen anytime soon. Hope this helps anyone who is considering this course..

Biking in Cass and over into Stewart Park is nice. Cass Park also leads to the Black Diamond Trail which lands you at Taughannock State Park--great for biking and walking. I've never walked all the way up to Taughannock (that is a loooooooong walk), but biked there and bike a bunch of times and it is a great workout. Challenging, but not killer. My best bike time up from Cass to Taughannock was just under 50 minutes.

Great Ithaca winter or summer adventure spot!

Hi Lanes is a staple of Homer, NY. It's tucked back on a side road and has been there almost beyond…read morememory. It's a small place with maybe ten lanes. The decor is all pretty dated but I actually expect that in bowling places, just the same as I would at a dive bar. It was fun bowling with my family! We all found balls for ourselves, enjoying the process of wandering the alley, picking up balls until we each had the right ones. There was a mix of adults and kids and everyone found what they were looking for. Aside from our group, the lanes were really busy with the leagues in town who all gave off a kind of hardcore bowling but relaxing in the man's club vibe. The most shockingly awesome thing about this place was the food. You ever just have an unexpectedly godly burger? That happened to me here! I thought I'd be getting regular greasy spoon but then I bit into the most perfectly toasted, slightly crispy bun with soft burger and cheese. I mean, damn. Totally normal but the texture blasted me! Aside from that food was cheap and fast, served in baskets, again what you'd expect. There are other places in the area but if you don't feel like driving over to Cortland then Hi-Lanes will suit you just fine.

This is a nice little park off rt. 281 in Preble / Little York - right behind the Cortland…read moreRepertory Theater. The park includes a 1.6 mile-ish loop trail, plenty of picnic tables, barbecuing areas, a playground, and so on. The trail itself is nicely worn, and allows for various views of Little York Lake, and the place seems generally well maintained... including signage, plenty of garbage bins, clean pavilions, a basketball court, and all the basics. Yes, rt. 81 is right on the other side of the park. In most areas of the park, this isn't really an issue and the sound is more buffered by the trees. Of course, the closer you get to the side of the park near the highway, the more disruptive... but this is a minimal part of the park. Interestingly, this is one of the reasons I wanted to bring my puppy here... basically because it's important that he be introduced to all different kinds of noise/sounds so as to not be so skittish when they do arise unexpectedly. The highway is fairly separated from the park (by water), so it feels nice and protected to be in the park in case there is a reaction (it's not like there was a risk of him running into the road or anything). He actually had a great time wandering through the woods and was unbothered by the traffic noises. Pets are generally welcome, of course, as well as they're on-leash and their owner cleans up after them. All-in-all, an easy walk through a well maintained park. Very dog friendly as well. :)
