"Ithaca is gorges" can be read on proud t-shirts across New York State, and there is definitely truth in advertising. Sitting on the shores of Cayuga Lake, the largest of the Finger Lakes, the hilly town of Ithaca is surrounded by dense forests, towering waterfalls, and many gorges. The natural beauty has a distinctly academic feel, as local universities have filled the woods with museums and education centers like The Cornell Lab of Ornithology, which features a 220 acre wildlife sanctuary.

The spa was very well appointed and very relaxing. The staff were extremely professional and courteous -- they were truly genuine and not rehearsed and that really made us feel very comfortable and enjoy the experience even more.

My husband got me a gift voucher to August Moon Spa for Christmas and I couldn’t have been happier. Today was my first visit to this spa and it surely will not be my last. I was greeted by a friendly women who gave me a robe and slides and then showed me around the spa. I start the spa treatment with a 60 minute massage by Lisa. The pressure was prefect and the massage was great! I had 15 minutes before my facial which I spent in the relaxation room with a fireplace. I enjoyed a cup of tea while lounging in front of the fireplace. Salamar was my esthetician. She was amazing! I have had several facials in my life and this one was one of the best I have ever had. She also waxed my eyebrows which I’m very happy with. My time spent at August Moon was very relaxing and I enjoyed every minute of it. I can’t wait to go back for another morning of pampering.
