One of the most unique staycations I’ve done was spending the night in a tiny house at Collective Retreats on Governors Island. 🌿✨

We originally planned on booking one of the glamping tents, but they were completely sold out, so we ended up staying in a tiny house instead... and honestly I wouldn’t change a thing.

The coolest part? Once the last ferry leaves for the night you have the 172-acre island almost entirely to yourself and the guests staying at the resort.

We spent the evening watching the sunset, eating smores around the campfire, wandering the quiet paths, and soaking in a side of New York that I've never experienced before.

Some more things to note:
🍳Breakfast is included with your stay.
🍫They have nightly campfires with complimentary s’mores.
🌇The retreat has a restaurant and bar overlooking the skyline.
☀️The accommodations are seasonal (typically May through October).
💤It’s one of the only ways to stay overnight on Governors Island.

🏡If I went back, I think I’d still choose the tiny house over the tent.

🏕️ Would you rather stay in the glamping tent or the tiny house?
