Specialties
Welcome to Ruby Refuge! Big Ruby is a 32′ Sundowner Tugboat moored on Lake Union, available for overnight stays.
Big Ruby is a creative space, a romantic hideout, a quiet retreat, a place to focus or be inspired — or someplace to unplug completely.
Big Ruby has a galley (kitchen/living area) a pilot house, a berth (sleeping nook) and a head (small bathroom). There are also lots of places on the deck to relax and soak in the sun… when it’s around.
History
Established in 2015.
We were inspired to create this place for writers, artists, dreamers and creatives, but Big Ruby is also for anyone else who wants to stay aboard a really cool boat in the heart of Seattle! Choose your own adventure…
