Surrounded on 3 sides by the Pacific Ocean and on the 4th by the Point Arena-Stornetta Unit of the California Coastal National Monument, the Light Station offers the most unique lodging option on the Mendocino Coast. Watch for migrating gray and humpback whales, enjoy the resident harbor seals bobbing in the water, watch the various seabirds fly by and marvel at the ever changing skies, waves and views. Stay with us and you will get unlimited access to the Indoor and Outdoor Museums and Tower Tours up the tallest Lighthouse on the Pacific Coast. Make us your base of operations for exploring the many fascinating and unique sites nearby. The Head Keeper’s House has been remodeled to convert it into a two bedroom and one bath mid-century modern showplace. It includes a wood burning fireplace (firewood provided) in the living room, fully stocked kitchen with gas stove, dining room, satellite television, CD/DVD player, free Wi-Fi, back patio and majestic views of the Pacific from every room. This beautifully appointed home offers queen beds with memory foam mattresses in each room. The new bathroom has large format porcelain wave tile walls and herringbone mosaic floor in the shower. All new furniture, decor, artwork and window coverings make this a place to rival our current showcase Assistant Keeper’s House 4\.
