The Neighborhood:

Grant Island is a privately owned 1.4-acre island on public Brantingham Lake in the Adirondacks.



Waterfront Glamping combines a private waterfront setting with access to boating, fishing, swimming, wildlife, sunsets and stargazing.



Brantingham Lake is public, so residents and recreational boaters may also be on the water.



Two popular restaurants and bars, a local general store and seasonal recreation are available on the nearby mainland. The surrounding Adirondack and Tug Hill region offers hiking, state parks, horseback riding, wineries and other outdoor activities.



Because Grant Island is accessed by boat, bring the food, clothing, medication and personal supplies you expect to need during your stay.



Interaction with Guests:

We meet you at the designated mainland parking area, help with your belongings and bring you to Grant Island by pontoon boat.



After arrival, we show you Waterfront Glamping, explain the tent steps, private convenience toilet, full bathroom route and shared island areas, and provide the required orientation for the dedicated electric jon boat.



We answer your questions, make sure you understand how the tent, bathroom access, cooking setup and boat work, and then give you space to enjoy your stay.



Management remains in a separate residence on Grant Island during the operating season and is available through Vrbo messaging or phone for transportation, questions or anything requiring attention.



Please contact us promptly if a safety, cleanliness, maintenance or operational concern arises so we can inspect and address it while you are still here.
