About this property

Skyline Glamping | Lady Liberty | Campfire Nights

✨ Ranked #1 in Travel + Leisure’s “Best Places to Go Glamping in New York”

Just 8 minutes from Manhattan, Collective Governors Island delivers skyline views, harbor sunsets, and Statue of Liberty sightings—without city crowds. Sip cold brew, lounge in hammocks, and toast s’mores by the fire. By day, explore island trails or join yoga. By night, it’s wine, stargazing, and harbor breezes. This isn’t camping—it’s glamping reimagined.
✨ Why Book My Listing?

• Arrive via scenic ferry—your escape begins the moment you board

• Just 8 minutes from Manhattan—but feels like a different plan

• Stargaze by the firepit and toast s’mores under the stars

• Wake up to harbor breeze and views of Statue of Liberty

• Join daily experiences like yoga, live music & wine tastings

• No cars. No chaos. Just green space, great food, and good vibes


✨ Your Tent, But Make It Dreamy

Alright, let's address the elephant in the canvas: yes, it’s technically a “tent.” But this isn’t your cousin’s backyard sleepover situation. This one has Twin bed, designer linens, lantern lighting, fans, heaters, and actual walls. Well… canvas walls, but posh ones.

▶ Sleeping Arrangements:

• Twin bed with premium linens you’ll absolutely refuse to leave

▶ Outdoor Vibes:

• Private deck with actual views of Lady Liberty, ideal for wine o’clock or tea time

• Soft lantern glow + harbor breeze = instant exhale

▶ Essentials & Comforts:

• USB ports so your phone doesn’t die mid-sunset photo

• Fully zipped tent with mesh lining (a.k.a. airflow: yes, bugs: no)

• Lanterns, throw pillows, and general “I'm glamping and I know it” vibes

• Shared spa-style bathhouse just a short stroll away, complete with fluffy towels, robes, and fancy shampoo you’ll want to steal


✨ Dining & Culinary Experiences

We wouldn’t dare make you cook. That’s what the chefs are for.

▶ Breakfast, Delivered to Your Tent

Fresh pastries, granola, charcuterie, berries, overnight oats... basically a European café with better views.
And yes, it's included. You’re welcome.

▶ Nightly S’mores by the Firepit

Because you’re not truly glamping until there’s marshmallow on your jumper.
Grab your complimentary kit and gather ‘round. We’ve got stories to tell.

▶ Sunset Terrace Bar

Craft cocktails, local brews, and curated wines—served with cinematic views of the skyline and Lady Liberty
Bonus: Happy Hour from 3–5 PM daily. (We call this “golden hour with benefits.”)

▶ Three Peaks Lodge

Wood-fired, seasonally inspired dishes made to impress
Open-air dining with waterfront seats—like if Brooklyn got lost and came back peaceful

▶ Pop-Up Culinary Events

Rotating menus, chef tastings, and food that’ll make you consider a career change
Ask us what’s cooking when you arrive—we’ve always got something simmering


✨ Signature Experiences at Collective Governors Island

• Daily breakfast delivered to your tent—pastries, fruit, granola & more

• Two ferry tickets included with your reservation
