Perched on a cliff on a promontory within the Pigeon Point Lighthouse State Park, you can’t beat the ocean views and location of Pigeon Point Lighthouse Hostel. It is comprised of four houses (only the Dolphin unit is wheelchair accessible) that have a mix of shared and private rooms. The Dolphin’s private room; generally booked by wheelchair users, has a full size bed and would be tight for 2 people in wheelchairs. The dorm-style room with bunk beds would be challenging for a fulltime wheelchair user but may work for some. There is a well-appointed common room, stocked with an assortment of games, books, a piano and a dining area. The community kitchen is fully equipped with a roll under sink, stove, oven, microwaves, coffeemakers, pots and pans, dishes, utensils, and a refrigerator. Out back is an accessible deck with lovely ocean views. Next to the parks visitor center and perched on the bluff, is a hot tub for hostel guests only. It is partially in-ground and may work for some with good upper body strength but there is no lift. Free WiFi.
A viewing platform behind the visitor center is a great place to spot whales during migration mid-December to April.
