Conferences and Leadership Programs

A short ferry ride from the city . . . a million miles from work.

IslandWood is located on Bainbridge Island, just 35 minutes from downtown Seattle. With inspiration from the land itself, our six acres of conference facilities feature leading edge green building design and cover just a small portion of IslandWood's 255 forested acres. Ideal for corporate leadership programs or for nonprofit groups to come for a day or overnight. IslandWood provides a rich, natural setting to relax, connect as a team, and gain fresh perspectives on work.

Exceptional Site

Our meeting facilities can accommodate a small intimate group or a conference for 150 and feature sustainable building elements and state-of-the-art technology. Overnight accommodations include comfortable lodges, with ample sitting areas around central stone fireplaces to discuss the day's events. Guests will also enjoy five miles of trails ad encounter a Bird Blind, Suspension Bridge, pond, marsh, estuary, and Tree House overlooking a bog. Venture out at daybreak for a contemplative walk or an energizing run.

Mammal's Den Fireplace

Metamorphic rocks were used in the Mammal's Den fireplace. These rocks are formed from the alteration of pre-existing rock by high pressure and temperature. The chemical composition of the rock remains essentially the same, but the atoms are rearranged into different mineral structures. An example is carbon, which is changed by very high heat and pressure from the mineral graphite (pencil lead) into diamond.
