Loved this location and the apartment we stayed in. Was very nicely decorated - modern and comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. Thoroughly enjoyed being on this peninsula and seeing the ocean out both sides of our place. Took a few hikes along the coastline nearby and climbed down to one of the beaches to collect shells and say hi to the sea lions (we think) that were hanging out both days.

Odd smell in one of the rooms that we couldn't locate -- guessing a dead animal. Didn't reach out while we were there to get it addressed but probaby should have. Slept with window open and smell dissipated the 2nd day. Other than that no complaints at all!

There was no breakfast which was fine because we travel with a cooler of food. The location is the highest score of any scores that exist! The cottage was open and airy and wonderfully chosen blues and white and grey interior. Very comfortable beds, nice lounging area, fantastic having a fire.

It would be extremely helpful and beneficial if you would install USB ports & plugs for wall warts, where they could be easily reached, for example, bases of lamps, bedside and living room side tables. For instance I have hearing aides, phone, & iPad to charge! That’s a lot I know & there’s a surprising number of people that have that many gadgets to charge these days.

The view from our windows were amazing. On the door window, we had the view of the lighthouse and the other window, the coast and the ocean. The room was clean and cozy with all the amenities we could ask for. It was perfect for me and my two young girls. We loved walking around the vast property. The electric fireplace kept the room warm and toasty. The bed was comfortable and there was another cozy blanket available just case. Refrigerator, microwave, wine and glasses, wifi, and even first aide kit!

It cannot be helped -- there weren't many restaurants available around the area, being that it's small town. We did enjoy the only Mexican restaurant, we ended up going twice. Yes, it was that good.

Wow! Loved the location with water on the sides of us and waking up to beautiful sunshine on the water out the front and back windows. The house has a good floor plan, was well stocked with all the cooking supplies we needed, and was comfortable. Thank you for having games on the shelves… that was an added treat for our family.

The carpet has numerous stains and could use a cleaning.

Being out at the lighthouse was amazing. Our room was small but very comfortable. We had the most amazing view of the lighthouse and ocean from our room. The amount of open space around the lighthouse was incredible. It was wonderful being able to walk the area.

The only problem was that there was a power outage for several hours. The rooms had a lantern, flashlight and instructions so it was obviously a relatively common occurrence. It wasn’t an issue for us. Because the facility is on a well there was no water. This would have been the one down side if the outage had been longer.

No breakfast available. Its been 28 + yrs. since I stayed here. I used to be a sub for the caretakers when they had to go out of town for supplies etc. I was thrilled to be in The Bookkeepers room because I could lay in bed with the window wide open all night & see the lighthouse lit up in all her glory. The weather was beautiful, we met Arena Mina, the local cat & watched gophers run across the sidewalk lol.

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.

The place is so awesome, can’t complain about anything. This is so good I would definitely visit again. The place had a personal touch to everything and took care of every little thing that a family would need. If someone likes to cook, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything a chef would need. Loved everything. Can’t complain.

We would have to be super bad people to say something we didn’t liked at the Point Arena Lighthouse. This place is too good to be true. I just can’t get enough of the place. Loved it, every single second I stayed at the lighthouse. Just sharing, it’s nothing important but Since we cooked our food and didn’t eat out we wanted to clean the dishes using the dishwasher. But we didn’t had any dish soap pods. They weren’t available at the town either . 1-2 pods if someone is staying there for 2 days would be an awesome idea.

The door lock was finicky. It was so incredibly cold and windy when we got there and then struggling to get in the door was frustrating. Also the weird cloth-like tiles on the wall looked dirty but everything else was WONDERFUL. The view, the bed, room decor, REAL COFFEE! We would absolutely recommend!

The Beauty and History of the Lighthouse....Pacific Ocean......Full Moon.....is too difficult to put into words and along with that...the assistance from all that worked at the property added to the complete enjoyment and appreciation. The walking trails, the information about the entire area and history was helpful prompting fun time exploring. Check-in was very easy and safe without being restricted to exact time of arrival....nice when on vacation.
