Item Description
Travel back in time with this two night stay for six at the Point Arena Lighthouse, situated on the closest point of land to the Hawaiian Islands in the Continental US. Here, the adventurer and the philosopher meet. Surrounded on three sides by the Pacific Ocean, the Point is a place of astonishing beauty and power, simultaneously ravaged by the elements and governed by a deep peace. Constructed in 1907, it remains the tallest Pacific Coast lighthouse at 115 feet; dare to climb to the Lantern Room to take in the panoramic view of the California coast. Enjoy insider access to the museum, tower, and gift-store. Explore Point Arena, a tiny coastal city with its own unique flavor and miles of wilderness and beach.
Come night, step into the boots of a turn-of-the-century lighthouse keeper when you stay in the historic assistant keeper's house. Once the former homes of the U.S. Coast Guard keepers, these accommodations have been transformed into cozy abodes with a wood-burning fireplace and full kitchen where you can take respite from the elements, rest after a long day of hiking, or drink in the magnificent views. With the coastal mountains and Pacific Ocean at your doorstep, there is no limit to how you can spend your time. This package also includes a guided tour of the museum and tower, as well as two beautiful books on the history of the Point Arena Lighthouse and Point Reyes courtesy of Point Reyes Books in Point Reyes Station.
Whether you wish to let your body or your mind roam freely, explore or restore, conquer new heights or reflect on new depths, this is a truly priceless package, guaranteed to transport you to somewhere you have never been before. Picture it now: the fog tumbling in, soundlessly closing in on the coast, the yellow beam of the lighthouse cutting a path through the foam, the waves below it breaking invisibly, and you, watchful human, at the center of it all.
