at Cape Disappointment State Park.

For nearly 75 years, only the family of the North Head "light keeper" viewed the scenic beauty from these historic homes. Now, visitors can enjoy the recently remodeled accommodations, just a short walk away from the lighthouse.

Three comfortable bedrooms await guests upstairs, two with queen beds and one with twin beds. Downstairs, beautifully furnished living rooms provide all the comforts of home.

Although there is no television reception at the houses, TVs with built-in VCR and FM radio offer entertainment options. The dining rooms seat six at a large table, and the tiled kitchens include a Jenn-Air range, microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator, dishwasher, and all the necessities. The bathroom in each house is situated off the kitchen, and all linens and towels are provided for guests.

The cost of Lightkeepers Residence 1 is $229.48 per night plus tax. Both houses can accommodate a maximum of six people and three cars.

For all vacation houses, a two-night minimum stay is required from April 1 through September 30, with a three-day minimum on all holidays. One-night stays are possible from October 1 through April 1, Monday through Thursday nights. During the off-season, a midweek discount of 50% applies. A forfeiture of the first night’s fee will result for all cancellations within sixty days of the reserved date. No smoking is permitted inside the rentals and pets are not allowed on the premises or in renters vehicles. Reservations can be made by calling 1-(888)-CAMPOUT.
