You will marvel at the privacy and remoteness of this property. Wildlife sightings of bald eagles and birds, seals, porpoises, deer, coyotes, and even sometimes whales can be seen from the house.

Respect all private property and no trespass signage while walking the beaches.
Other things to note:
This property requires a ferry ride and purchase of ferry tickets (children under 18 are free but still require a ticket). The ferry typically runs between 5am-10pm every day. The Anderson Island ferry ride takes approximately 20 minutes. You can purchase tickets via the City Experiences Hornblower app or from the ticket office at the Steilacoom ferry terminal on the mainland. Tickets are round trip and non-reservable. Wait times in the summer months and holidays can be longer so plan accordingly.
No trailers or RVs are allowed. Off-road vehicles are not required, and standard cars and SUVs are fine, but we feel it is advisable to let guests know this is a remote and unpaved part of the island. Getting to our property requires driving on uneven and sometimes bumpy gravel roads, as well as driving down a long steep and winding driveway.
We know pets are family too. We welcome you to enjoy our home with up to 2 dogs. They must be fully grown adult dogs, non-aggressive, and house broken. There is a $50 pet fee per stay.
We recommend downloading the Anderson Island Assistant app. It is very useful for important information about events on the island, the ferry schedules & ferry line cameras, weather, business hours, emergency services, and tides.
Groceries and amenities are limited. There is one general store which provides pantry staples and fresh dairy and eggs and things like gas, propane, and ice. The fresh produce and meat options are limited and more expensive due to the island’s remoteness. If you seek things for special diets you will need to purchase supplies in advance and bring them with you. We recommend you bring what you need for your stay.
You must abide by all county fire safety rules and restrictions. Outdoor recreational fire pit use is allowable most of the year, however extreme caution is required as coastal winds and dry conditions are common and restrictions are posted at the ferry terminals and General Store on the island. When permitted, only one small fire is allowed at a time and it must be supervised 100% of the time and extinguished completely.
For families with babies and toddlers, with advanced notice we can provide a high chair, a Bjorn folding crib, potty seat, and some kid friendly toys. Please note that the deck does not have railings, there are natural dangers on the property such as seawall/bulkhead, stairs, and the house is not baby proof. We maintain gardens and a small apartment above the garage. We will notify guests at least 24 hours in advance if we will be on the property. We will always respect guests privacy and never will access your house without consent or unless there is an emergency.
