Glamping—the absurd portmanteau meaning “glamorous camping,” or camping for people who don’t really like camping—has become more of a trend in the past few years, with dedicated resorts and short-term rentals promising an outdoorsy experience without all of the less-fun trappings of that sort of trip.
There aren’t many places to experience glamping in New York City; Terra Glamping, one of the best-known companies peddling the lifestyle, recently opened a pop-up in Fort Tilden, but it’s not a permanent affair.
But if you travel just a bit outside of the five boroughs, you can experience five-star accommodations in the midst of nature thanks to Collective Retreats, which recently opened a resort on an organic farm in Ghent, New York, not too far from the hip haven of Hudson. It features both luxury tents kitted out with plush linens, swank amenities, and even real, honest-to-God toilets, along with a communal lodge for guests.
Curious? Check out the video above to take a tour of the high-end glamping site.
