Just eight minutes by ferry from New York City, Collective Retreats Governors Island redefines the city escape—offering a transformative, open-air retreat where nature, skyline views, and contemporary comfort converge. Set within 172 acres of car-free parkland, this seasonal experience invites guests to explore a quieter, more immersive side of New York few ever see.
It’s a rare chance to exchange the city’s pulse for the rhythm of nature—without ever leaving sight of the Manhattan skyline. Here, you don’t have to go far to feel far away.
Tucked into six acres of lush island greenery, the retreat blends nature-infused hospitality with thoughtful design. Guests can choose from upscale canvas tents or fully enclosed retreats, each with private decks, curated interiors, and open-air layouts that invite reconnection—with nature, with others, and with themselves.
Whether you’re lingering overnight or visiting for the day, every moment encourages a return to simplicity: mornings with harbor breezes, afternoons exploring leafy paths, lavender fields, and hidden corners, and evenings under the stars with craft cocktails and firelight.
At Three Peaks Lodge and Sunset Terrace, enjoy woodfired fare inspired by seasonal, farm-to-island ingredients. With views of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline as your backdrop, dining becomes a gathering—whether shared with friends, fellow travelers, or the island itself.
From overnight retreats to unforgettable private events, Collective Retreats Governors Island is an escape shaped by discovery, framed by water and sky, and made extraordinary by its closeness to the city—and distance from the expected.
Open seasonally from May to October.
