Brother's Island is located in Newboro Lake about 15 minutes by boat from where our Friday welcome event and Saturday celebration will take place. It's home to a rustic lodge that we have access to through the generosity of one of our guests. They would also get you to and from our events via their boat. The lodge can accommodate up to 8. If you're fewer than that, you would potentially share the space with other guests. For more details about this option, please get in touch with Aki directly by phone (415-272-3249) or email (agormezano@gmail.com).
