Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Steve Ruiter
Our teens love to explore the wetlands and use the kayaks and paddle boards, play games and read books. We love to catch Dungeness crab, pick blackberries and bake a crisp, all while enjoying the expansive beach views.
Why they chose this property
Hat Island is a breathtakingly beautiful secluded island not far from the city of Seattle . With the help of a fabulous local architect Chris Serra, and talented designer Julie Meyers, we built this custom home between 2006 and 2009 as a relaxing, fun, family vacation spot away from busy city life. The house prioritized amenities for great sleeping and high-end cooking. All the bedrooms have a lovely view; two have private balconies.
What makes this property unique
We see lots of wildlife: whales passing through in the springtime, eagles, seals, birds, and rabbits. Hiking around the island is a great way to get a 4.5 mile walk and see the local geology. Crabbing, clamming and berry picking are (in season) are outside your door.
If you sign the waiver for each participant or their parent, you may also borrow our recreational kayaks, stand-up paddle-boards, and row boats. We have many life jackets on site, but bring any special sizes you may need.
There are some rules due to the nature of a private island HOA and the geography. For example, we do not rent to groups that include unrelated teenagers or 20-somethings, the Home Owner's Association has rules about fires that you must strictly follow, and we ask guests not to disturb the neighbors with noise. The HOA requires guests to register in order to be on the island. Our house rules help everyone leave the house in pleasing shape for the next guests. We have an on-island host to meet you at the docks, help you to the house, and show you the house systems.
NOTICE TO HAT ISLAND HOMEOWNERS: Please note that if you OWN a home on Hat island, our contract requires three important things: 1) that you list all registered guests on our Confirmation Page at the end of the signed contract and commit that no one other than registered guests will be on the premises at any time. There is a camera on the exterior of the house and a fine of $200 per extra person, per 24-hour period, for any unregistered guests on the premises; and 2) island home owners may not borrow our vehicle; and 3) the entire group of registered guests must arrive at the house at the same time and meet with our island host before checking in in order to learn the house systems.
