Camping Without Leaving New York: Spend the Night Under the Stars in a Luxury Tent on Governors Island

Governors Island is the perfect day trip destination from New York (while still technically within the city limits). But if you want to extend your vacation, Collective Retreats organizes exciting glampings (glamorous campsites), says Secret nyc.

Over the years of their existence, they have held many events on the island: live music evenings, tarot card readings, needlework, morning yoga, bike rental, chair massage, lawn games, bonfires and cocktails throughout the season.

And now - a chic campsite.

The campsite is already open for bookings and will run until October! Seasonal amenities include:

• Daily morning wellness programs including yoga and meditation sessions
• Air conditioning in all tents
• Privileged access and 10% off day passes and spa treatments at QC NY.
• Free breakfast
• Complimentary private evening campfire
• Collective culinary events
• Gourmet dinner and cocktails
• Large comfortable space for outdoor activities
• And, of course, unparalleled views of the Statue of Liberty and Manhattan
