Directions to the Copper Beacons

Nestled between Lake Cayuga and Lake Seneca, the Copper Beacons is in the heart of the Finger Lakes Wine Country, ten miles from Ithaca and eighteen miles from Watkins Glenn. New York state's only National Forest is just 2 miles from our door. By the way, there are two more "B's" that go with "Bed and Breakfast." They are "Bikes and Boots." We have miles of bike routes, nature paths, and hiking trails at our doorstep. So bring your own "B and B's."
