A Night at the Heceta Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast
The Heceta Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast is a magical place nestled in the hillside of the Oregon Coast. The keeper’s house was built over 100 years ago. A lighthouse keeper operated the Fresnel Lens from 1894 until the 1930s when electricity became available. As a result, the lighthouse was automated and the keeper was no longer needed. Consequently, the house was sold for the unbelievable price of just $10! Many years later, in 1995, it was converted to a bed and breakfast.
Enjoy Your Stay
The welcome drink pairs nicely with the breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean from the front porch. Grab a blanket, cozy up in an adirondack chair and listen to the sound of the waves crashing below.
The Queen Anne room offers a comfortable four-poster bed with charming antique furniture and a view of the garden below. An old wardrobe houses plush bathrobes to wrap up in after a soak in the claw-foot tub.
A path leads from the gift shop up to the top of the hill where you can get an up close look at the Heceta Head Lighthouse. In addition, another trail takes you behind the towering structure where you can get a better look at the lens.
One of the perks to staying at the Heceta Lighthouse B&B is the proximity to the lighthouse during sunset. Take advantage of the flashlight provided in your room and take an evening walk to see the beams cast across the ocean. You won’t regret it.
