Looking to have a honeymoon or host a destination wedding that offers high-quality accommodations and allows you to be in touch with your surroundings? Then say no more! Collective Retreats is the company that can give you exactly what you’re looking for. With five different locations across the country, you are bound to pick one that is perfect for you and your special someone, whether it's your honeymoon, a wedding retreat or a couple's getaway.



Collective Retreats is an experience unlike anything you’ve seen or heard of. Founded by Peter Mack, the company offers destination hotel locations using minimal materials, which allows guests to have little-to-no barrier between their surroundings and their accommodations. Guests stay in luxury canvas tents at each of the five Collective Retreats locations, all equipped with high-end amenities. Each location is unique in its own way and located where traditional hotels would not be found.
The Collective Retreats collection includes:
Collective Vail, a Retreat at 4 Eagle Ranch – This location is surrounded by 1,000 acres of Colorado ranchland. It’s perfect for couples that love horseback riding, riding ATVs and are looking to kick back and enjoy the views. Rates start at $500 per night.
