Collective Retreats at Governors Island
Want to get down and dirty in the great outdoors but don’t want to go too
far out or get too dirty? Governors Island now has the solution for you.
Introduced in 2018, the Collective Retreats glamping package is a great
introduction to camping — except you don’t need a car and still get all your
creature comforts. It can be an excellent entry point for little kids into
actual camping!
You can choose to stay in a Summit Tent or an Outlook Shelter, both of
which are slick and comfortable, have access to a bathroom with hot
running water (en-suite in the Summit Tent, communal in the Outlook
Shelter), a queen or two double beds, plush linens and towels and any
other amenity you’d expect to find in a boutique hotel. While the tents have
a maximum adult occupancy of two, a rollaway bed for a child under 12 can
be added for an additional fee. Children under 6 can share a bed with an
adult at no extra charge.
The experience places you right across the water from NYC, with views of
the Statue of Liberty and glamorous night skyline views of the city. Partake
in s’more making—expertly curated by Collective Retreats pastry chef, Aura
Danton—and live music in the evening, and yoga and island walks in the
morning. A five-star dining experience is also available for visitors to
purchase.
