Exactly as we expected. Peaceful, quiet, (foggy a lot) and many trails around the coast to appreciate.

It was great. Lots of places to walk around and keep busy. Of course there is the light house.

Just a really unique experience to have uninterrupted views of the Mendocino coast out of windows on both sides of the house, and a view of the lighthouse from the bedroom! The place was clean and spacious. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner!

It was definitely cold here but my girlfriend and I were not only ready for it, it had been 110 degrees most of the week where we came from so it was a great getaway.
Very beautiful area. The lighthouse tour was free with our stay and we enjoyed it. Not a ton of food options around but good food nonetheless. Well taken care of property right on the ocean. It was a great retreat for an easy do nothing weekend.
Loved it.

The location is amazing and I was happy to support the non-profit working to maintain the property.
We stayed in the Head keeper's House which was well appointed and had great views of the lighthouse and of the surf. The beds were comfortable and the fireplace was cozy. In most ways it met or exceeded my expectations.
Unfortunately I can't give more than 3 stars as we woke up to a massive woodbug infestation. Maybe this was a one-off event but there were easily dozens of the insects crawling around when we got up, mostly around the main bedroom. My wife was offput by the carcases left on the floor that clearly remained from bugs we'd inadvertently stepped on during bathroom breaks over night.

We had a wonderful time at Point Arena Lighthouse. We stayed in the older, not-yet-renovated lodgings but everything was in good shape and clean. The property itself was great to explore and it was fun being there at night with no one else around. The tour guides were very friendly, as was the cat, Mina. The shop had a ton of gifts.
All of the houses looked like they had great views from both front and back. We were fogged in most of the time, but that's the risk you take at a lighthouse. We could watch seals sun bathe on the rocks below and there was plenty of hiking nearby.
The town of Point Arena is just a few miles away (within biking distance) and had several great places to eat. I'd recommend Gama and the New Museum.

Such a cool experience to stay out by the lighthouse and explore the property! Worth every penny and it goes to a great cause of keeping up the property. You get free access to the tour that takes you to the top of the lighthouse and there are spectacular views from the top! Highly recommend!

There is nothing like a beautiful day at the beach. So staying overnight at the beach is awesome. Thank you for the memories.

I was traveling alone with my dog, we had the Bookkeeper’s Room, which was perfect for our time in Point Arena. I felt safe, and the room was very clean with coffee maker, fridge and microwave. ( It is always difficult to gauge which Point Arena restaurants will be open and when, so bringing food with is a must.) The walks around the property and at close-by Stornetta Lands were very healing, and I really enjoyed the Lighthouse tour. The staff at the gift shop and museum are all very kind and knowledgeable. Also, I didn’t see Mina all week, but she came to see us off while I was moving luggage to the car. She is a sweet mascot! I am highly recommending this destination to friends!!

We had a great time at the Point Arena Lighthouse! The space was clean and cozy, Mark was communicative and helpful, and they even gave us a personal tour of the lighthouse! Wished shampoo/conditioner were provided. Basic kitchen stuff (oil, spices) would have been great too. Super well appointed space otherwise. Would love to come back!
