About this property

Experience the sights and sounds of California’s North Coast from the comfort of our vacation home. Breathtaking views of the rugged coastline and Battery Point Lighthouse are enjoyed from the upstairs observation room & upstairs bedroom. The sounds of barking sea lions, crashing waves, soothing surf and fog horn will soothe and delight you.

Spaciously designed and comfortably furnished, our two story vacation home features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, a large combination kitchen/living area, two bedrooms, each with a queen bed, two bathrooms, and an observation room. A freestanding gas fireplace in the living room adds to the warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Conveniently located one-half block from easy beach access, a spiral stairway takes you to a picturesque beach to explore tide pools and beachcomb. Historic Battery Point Lighthouse, a few blocks away (from the beach or the street), is accessible during low tide and has tours available, giving you a rare glimpse into the daily operation and history of an active lighthouse.

The Lighthouse View Vacation Home is an ideal home base to explore California's North Coast, Redwood National and State Parks, the Smith River National Recreation Area, and other scenic wonders in this beautiful area. Or, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the view.

Great access to the Redwoods

15 minutes away from Jedediah Smith Redwoods, 30 minutes from the Oregano coastal beaches. House was spacious, clean and felt like home. Hated to leave! If we ever make it back to Northern California, only place we'd stay.

Crescent City and Redwoods

Exceeded our expectations. Everything we needed close to everything, comfortable, and clean. Pillows are of a specific style, nice, but not my preference. Might consider bringing your own pillows if you’re picky like me. Would recommend to anyone!!!

Wonderful stay!

The home was well kept and exactly as listed. Beth and Clark were so lovely to chat with and very helpful recommending local restaurants and things to do. We especially appreciated the books on the local history and all the maps and pamphlets from the redwood parks and area attractions. If we ever make it back to the area, we would love to stay here again!

Wonderful Home!

Would I stay here again? Absolutely!! We spent 7 days exploring Northern California and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! It doesn't get any better than a view of a working lighthouse from the upstairs bedroom! Spotless clean, conveniently close to the beach and Redwood NP (15 minutes from the front door) and situated in a very quiet neighborhood. The home is meticulously cared for and the homeowner kept in touch via email. Thank you for sharing your property with us. We will recommend this property to anyone interested in visiting Crescent City.

Great stay!

We had a great stay! The cottage is in the perfect location. Great views out of the second floor. Beach access less than 2 minutes away, which was wonderful! It’s definitely worth the short walk on the beach to battery park lighthouse, especially when the lighthouse is open for tours. Check out Chart Room Restaurant. Great food, friendly staff, great views of the sea lions in the harbor. Paragon coffee is walking distance from the house and I enjoyed going there. Crescent city is such a lovely town! The redwoods are close and we recommend the Boy Scout trail.

Great ocean view

We had a great time and was very close to the beach. Unfortunately the weathere completely cooperate so we were only able to walk on the beach a few times but the bedrooms and kitchen were great. We got soaked one day at the redwoods so really utilized the heater and spent most of our time up in tbe bedroom and sunroom, looking at the waves and lighthouse. Would definitely stay again

Supberb beach access! The house was cozy and very well eqipped. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Games and puzzles available and lots of reading options.

I Saw the Light(house)

The Lighthouse View Cottage was a wonderful place for us to use as a base for our redwood explorations. It provided breathtaking views of the wild surf that hit Northern CA the week we visited. It also came with a great soundtrack of waves and seabirds, especially from the second floor sitting room that overlooks the beach. The Cottage is well equipped and comfortable, within walking distance of the beach, the lighthouse, a local brew pub, and other places. We would happily stay there again.

Cleaning

Trying to get laundry and everything clean right before leaving is kind difficult would rather just have it be included in cleaning fee. Other then that the place is really nice and in a great location with fantastic views.

Great home base for family trip

The location cannot be beat, especially if you're travelling with elementary/preschool age children and want to minimize time in the car to maximize fun. Trailheads in the Redwoods are only a short drive away and a fun beach for poking around tide pools and watching the waves is basically out the front door. The only downsides would be the upstairs bed was creaky and A/V technology was very dated/not working. I think it was fairly priced for what it is though. Just don't forget your own Bluetooth speaker and you'll be all set!

Just what we hoped for

Our stay at Beth’s place in Crescent City was just what we were hoping for, for this vacation. It was so close to the Redwoods and we spent lots of time hiking, which we loved. The redwoods were just so beautiful- it was our first time seeing them. We got to walk to the beach numerous times, which is just up the street and less than a five minute walk. The views from the observation room were great-loved seeing the seals every morning and exploring the tide pools at low tide. Crescent City is a small town, but had everything we needed and the property was just great. We like cooking our own meals and the kitchen was well stocked with all the utensils, and even some spices and other things that you need. There were also some great restaurants in town. Beth was a great communicator and responded quickly to any questions I had throughout the whole process. She also had a really comprehensive set of resources on site of things to explore in the area. Instructions for check in and check out were very clearly communicated. We would definitely love to return at some point in the future. What a great location and a great experience!

Beautiful home close to Redwoods

We had such a relaxing stay at this house! The view of the lighthouse and the proximity to the beach where wonderful. I was also pleased with how close we were to the Redwoods. We were able to get to our hikes quickly, which is helpful with kids. The town has the amenities we needed (restaurants, grocery stores, even a movie theater) and it was easy to quickly navigate around town. We had a wonderful time in this house and we would definitely go back!
