Luxurious Glamping | Panoramic Views & Dining

✨ 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


✨ The Summit Suite — Glass Walls, Skyline Sips & VIP Sleep

Let’s just say: if New York had a secret suite for people who “get it,” this would be it. Welcome to the Summit Suite, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Statue of Liberty, the skyline glows on cue, and your mini fridge is already stocked. It’s not just a room—it’s a front-row seat to the harbor, wrapped in glass, wood, and more wow than your camera roll can handle.

▶ Sleeping Arrangements:

• Oversized king bed with 1,500-thread-count linens — because your spine deserves the best

• Plump pillows, designer headboard, and skyline glow included

• Fall asleep watching Manhattan sparkle. Wake up wondering if you’re still dreaming

▶ Outdoor Vibes:

• Folding glass doors open onto a shaded waterfront deck

• Sip rosé at golden hour, stargaze over the harbor, or just lounge with the skyline as your plus one

• 100% smoke-free for fresh air and clear views from every angle

• VIP vibes from check-in to checkout — this is the suite you book when you’re feeling a little iconic

▶ Essentials & Comforts:

• Floor-to-ceiling windows for maximum “whoa” factor

• Warm wood floors, custom lighting, and curated design touches throughout

• Ambient lighting + climate control = total control over your cozy levels

• Full electricity, bedside outlets, Wi-Fi — stream, scroll, or completely unplug like a champ

• Nightly turndown service with surprise sweet treats — because good days should end sweetly

• Rainforest shower that delivers a full-body revival (no spa required)

• Double vanity sinks, plenty of counter space, and soft lighting that flatters even after a s’mores binge

• Plush towels, fluffy robes, and bath products that smell like a garden


✨ 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

At Collective Retreats, we design every moment to connect you with nature, community, and the wonder of the outdoors—while keeping the Manhattan skyline in view.

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

• Two ferry tickets included with your reservation

▶ Live Music on the Lawn
Nightly acoustic sets feature NYC artists—don’t miss Tom Larson’s bluesy sunset sessions every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evening.

▶ Laundry
No washer/dryer on-site, so pack like a pro. Pro tip: leave room for souvenirs and s’mores kits.

▶ The Glamping Vibe
• Think canvas tents, crackling firepits, and open skies—not elevators and lobbies

• We’re a seasonal escape—open spring to fall, then we hibernate
