NOCO Islands

Escape the ordinary and host your next event on one of our private islands, located on a serene private lake in Fort Collins, Colorado. The NOCO Islands offer a unique and breathtaking backdrop for any occasion, from an intimate family reunion to a large corporate gala. Forget the confines of a traditional event hall, we offer a spacious, flexible, and unforgettable setting that is truly one-of-a-kind.

Choose Your Island Paradise: Big Island or Li'iLi'i Island

The NOCO Islands are comprised of two distinct and beautifully designed venues, each offering a unique atmosphere and a wide range of amenities.

Big Island

A local event venue since 1999, Big Island is perfect for large gatherings. The island's East and West sides can be reserved individually or together, and each side offers a distinct atmosphere. Your guests will be shuttled directly to your private event location. The island features a dedicated swim beach, docks for easy access, a water trampoline, and options for canoeing and pedal boating.

Li'iLi'i Island

This intimate and secluded island is a perfect escape for smaller, private events. Available from late May through mid-September, Li'iLi'i Island is thoughtfully designed to provide both relaxation and recreation. Guests can enjoy a sand volleyball court, horseshoe pits, and a fire pit. A covered area with a tiki bar, ample refrigerator space, lounge chairs, and picnic tables with umbrellas ensures comfort for all.

Amenities for Every Guest

We've packed our islands with everything you need to create a memorable day.

  • Recreational Amenities: Enjoy swimming, a water trampoline, canoes, pedal boats, inner tubes, a volleyball court, and a horseshoe pit. All life jackets are provided and required for water activities.
