Several Sundays throughout the summer are free concerts in an outdoor amphitheatre. Small so no bad seats but always enough space to sit. Historic house to visit on the property as well as hiking trails. The Old Place, great dinner spot, just across the street, as well as wine tasting next door at Cornell Winery.
