Becky is an amazing host. She even had an extra dog bowl for Bucky! Clean, comfortable, great location, a very relaxing place. Eco tip: get rid of the little plastic bottles with shampoo and go to refillable dispensers in the shower. THANKS!!!

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving break at the Point Arena Lighthouse Lodging! The views were absolutely stunning, and our room had everything we needed, spotless, cozy, and perfect for unwinding. We truly relaxed, recharged, and enjoyed every minute of it.
