Ein fantastisch ausgestattetes Ferienhaus im abgegrenzten Leuchtturm-Areal
Perfekt, nichts zu ergänzen!

Loved the location and the sunrise. So fun and beautiful. The lighthouse tour the next morning was fabulous.
Needed another blanket and since we checked in after 3:30 there was no one to get one from.

So cool to have a fireplace with wood provided. We loved walking to the estuary!
Local restaurants were mostly all closed on Monday/Tuesdays. Not very many options except the casino. They let kids in, had good food, and we won, haha! So that worked out!

Everything from the lighthouse tour to the visits from the famous lighthouse cat. This place is a hidden gem. This may become a winter holiday tradition for my family.

We loved being so close to the ocean and the amazing hiking trails. Hearing the crashing waves at night was a highlight as well as the sounds and flights of all the birds. The gift store had so many nice and thoughtful gifts for sale and the lighthouse tour guide was super fun and informative. Having everything at our doorstep was very cool.

Location was stunning. Room was super cute and clean and bright and fun.
You can hear the next door neighbors. Walls are like paper.

Very clean, peaceful and quiet. Close to the ocean so you can hear the waves break on the rocks.
Only a wood stove for heat and firewood was green. Kitchen has plenty of good dishes,pots, pans, and flat ware. But that was it. No foil, wrap, spices, etc. It cost $25 a stay for a small BBQ. Rates are a little high. Long drive on twisty roads.

My wife and I stayed in the Keeper's Room, which is the 1 queen bed studio with private bath. It was a beautiful room, and the staying out on the coast near the lighthouse is amazing. It's so beautiful out there (although you might have to wait for the fog to clear). Comfortable bed and hot water. A small place to keep, heat, and eat your own food (although no kitchen, and no real food access other than what you bring for yourself). It's also run by a non-profit that maintains the very cool lighthouse and is worth the (complementary) trip inside. Overall recommend the experience and location for the price.
I have to reduce my score by two because the online listing (and in-room materials) represented the Keeper's Room as having complementary streaming services (both specifically mentioned Netflix). However, the Keeper's Room did NOT have any streaming services when we stayed. The TV in the room was an older ("dumb") TV and did not have any streaming devices hooked up to it (e.g. a Roku, Flex, etc.). Instead, it only had a DVD player (with some DVDs provided in the room) and a satellite TV device that did not include any other streaming service. I hope they fix this soon because I feel like it was a misrepresentation of the room - my wife and I had specifically booked the room because we planned to watch Netflix the evening after we arrived before going to bed.

Location, cleanliness, views, layout of apartment and the arena mina cat! It was amazing they had plenty of dishes and appliances for cooking and baking. Loved the fireplace and the window blinds that were adjustable so we could get that sea breeze but maintain privacy. Can't wait to return.
The bed frame was bit weak and squeaky it moved from the wall when you moved a little or got into bed like the mattress was too light or something? Other than that it was great!

We could see the lighthouse from the window of the Bookkeeper's Room. The radiant heat from the floor kept us warm, and there was plenty of premium ground coffee.

Room was very cold. Small fireplace did not put out enough heat. Not enough warm comforters.

The studio was just perfect, with the view of lighthouse. The heated floor was definitely useful. The studio was tastefully decorated and very smartly designed with every space put to good use. Mina the lighthouse cat was a constant fixture during our stay and we loved hanging out with her.

The location is stunning. Perfect for photographers, writers, those looking for a contemplative retreat space.
The beds are not very comfortable. Water pressure in one of the bathrooms was minimal and water did not get hot. The other bathroom was fine.

Amazing location, room was clean and comfortable

Beautiful large well stock kitchen, The bathrooms and bedrooms were well appointed and stocked. The views were gorgeous. It was fun to the lighthouse in the DVDs left for us.
The pillows bothered my wife's neck. It would have been best if we didn't have to build a fire to keep the place warm
9.0
Mark, the lighthouse keeper, and the staff at the lighthouse were incredibly passionate and generous with their time. The room was absolutely immaculate. I've never been in a place as clean as that-it was beyond any housekeeping anywhere. The room had everything we needed- all the way down to specialized cooking implements- and the kitchen was great. Bring your food for cooking, because there's nothing open in Pt. Arena or nearby for dining, except maybe limited hours on weekend nights
I have zero things that were wrong!

We took a quick weekend get away. Overnight definitely was too short to soak up the amazing scenery. They also have the nicest and cutest cat. Definitely going back!
9.0
Wonderful place to stay and even better, the lighthouse is outside our front door. Beautiful ocean surrounds us on three sides. Quite windy but that’s in Gods hands and we were well prepared with layered clothing.
Parking and entrance to our room was a little challenge as there is construction and upgrade to the entry of the Keepers room but it’s doable and the upgrade is going to be nice when completed.
