In 2016 Susan designed and created Camp Earth Connection's "Natural Campground" to give each guest privacy and the opportunity to experience nature in it's wildest setting. The campground consists of 25 sites, each one unique designed to meet the diverse needs of a diverse community. Susan has spent her life designing inclusive program for adults and children to connect them with nature. In 2002 she purchased this beautiful parcel of land (aka Camp Earth Connection) adjacent to the Hammond Hill Forest, near Ithaca, NY and created her own children's summer camps to bring children from urban areas and from disenfranchised communities to the country to connect them with nature. In the Fall of 2010 Susan also initiated the first Healing Hearts Women's Retreat on this sacred land. This camping retreat continues today and is held on the 2nd weekend of September.

All of Camp Earth Connection Programs value and promote Diversity, Acceptance and Community.

This One Room Cabin includes a full size bed, bunk beds and a desk, dresser, and drawers under beds. It also has a small fridge and other conveniences. When I first acquired the campground I had two little cabins built. I spent summers and many weekends in these cabins raising my children. These cabins are presently known as The Love Shack and Story-time Cabin. Each is private and has it's own fire pit and picnic table. If you truly want a vacation in nature, you won't be disappointed.

In 2005 I built the "Mountain Queen Cabin'" which is a year round cabin that I raised my family in. Today it is available to rent throughout the year and is also available through HomeAway.
