About
South Hill Cider celebrates Finger Lakes terroir by crafting distinctive ciders from hand-foraged wild apples, abandoned orchards, and heirloom varieties. Located four miles from downtown Ithaca near Buttermilk Falls State Park, they offer a year-round tasting room with guided tastings, farm-to-table food including house-smoked meats and sandwiches, and stunning views across Cayuga Lake Valley. They host music, events, hiking, and camping.
