Positive: The location of the property is obviously unique and the has the sunset view in New York City. I liked the comfort of the bed and the quality of products in the room. It was the end of the season and the place was serene. The happy hour bar with good selection of wine and food added charm to the experience.
Negative: - it was impossible to switch from the bath tub to the shower. - the AC didn’t react to the remote - no slippers in the room - bath tub was dirty With everything said it was low cost value performance even for being unique place in NYC
Summary: Charming place with some cons

Positive: The location is breathtaking. It’s such a special part of NYC that many folks are unaware of. The novelty of camping/glamping in New York Harbor is really special. The bonfire at night was so lovely and the s’mores were a delight.
Negative: This place is incredibly expensive for what it is. The basecamp cabin was $575, and it was comfy, but fine. The tents cost us $375, and the heat didn’t work in them and the sound of the boats and helicopters led to a pretty sleepless night, event though they provide earplugs. In general, it was a lovely, but wayyyyyyyyy overpriced. You can enjoy the magic of this place without sleeping there, which is what I would do next time. I would come and visit for the day and grab a drink at the bar, but the cost was outrageous given how uncomfortable the accommodation was.
Summary: Lovely, but overpriced and wouldn’t come again.

Positive: This is one of my favorite places in NYC - I find the whole experience magical, the view, the tents, governors island etc etc
Negative: I booked on a Friday specifically to avoid the construction noise I experienced when I stayed the month before but construction started even earlier on that Saturday morning and the entire hotel was woken up at 6:30am but the loudest possible banging - it lasted well over 90 min. And then I went to take a shower and there was no hot water, bc of course the entire camp went to the showers at the same time bc we were woken up at the same time. It was a miserable morning.
Summary: Always love the location and the tents - need to communicate better w your guests

Positive: The tents were a good size and furnished very well. The beds were very comfy and having A/C when it was 30oc outside was a blessing. The fire pits were great and well attended, having smores around them and talking to the other guests was great.
Negative: The choice of the drinks at the bar was poor, the breakfast was very disappointing, no hot items available and also no choice of milk. The food in the camp restaurant was very expensive but did taste nice. The staff didnt really have a lot of knowledge about the surrounding areas or transportation.
Summary: An interesting way to spend a couple nights off Manhattan, but very expensive for what we got.

Positive: The vibe and concept was great. Having golf cart concierge was amazing. The Peak Lodge food was delicious. I would recommend and would consider coming again.
Negative: The team was so nice, but there was a lot of misinformation. One staff member said we had to get the water ourselves, next staff member packed our ice box with water. We were told coffee was available all day, and then it wasn't. We came to dinner 5 minutes late after waiting for a very late golf cart pick up at the spa, and they refused to give us dinner, even though it's the only spot on the island to eat dinner. There was no compassion; we even asked for bread, and they made it seem like we were so wrong for even asking. The bartender continued the same vibe, unfortunately. It would be nice if there were some alternatives and clear supportive communication around it all. Made a great trip, but feel not so great on our last night. We saw the next day that the concierge had a fridge with oatmeal, and no one even mentioned that. Very unfortunate at the level of cost this trip is, it should be top-notch concierge communication. Also, it would have been nice to know ahead of time that loud party boats keep you up until 2 AM in the morning, which would have made different choices in booking if that information had been shared.
Summary: Comfortable and beautiful. Would have loved a higher end concierge experience.

Positive: The location is lovely, with excellent view of the Statue of Liberty and the harbor. It is a unique experience. The breakfast was good and enjoyed the happy hour. The tent was very clean and comfortable.
Negative: It would be great if the shared bathrooms offered more privacy, such as a door that locked. If possible, maybe add some of these portable/trailer bathrooms that are found elsewhere on Governors Island. While not as charming, those are generally kept clean and the gender neutral bathrooms have full privacy. next time, I might choose a tent that has it’s own bathroom though it is pricey (even at off peak time, with the fees etc)
Summary: Unique experience and lovely, scenic location in NYC
