“The car-free, glamping experience on Governors Island mixes upscale camping with skyline views just a quick ferry ride from Manhattan. Private tents have modern amenities, while seasonal dining provides unique options overlooking the Statue of Liberty. It's a surprisingly secluded and unforgettable venue, though be ready for the sounds of the city.”
