HI Pigeon Point Lighthouse is located 55 miles south of San Francisco along Highway 1, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.  There are a secluded beach, tidal pools and hiking trails nearby.  It offers three vacation rental units each accommodating up to 15 people and featuring:

• Two bedrooms each with three sets of twin bunk beds
• One bedroom with full-size bed and twin bunk bed

HI Point Reyes, which is temporarily closed due to the California wildfires, is the only non-camping traveler's accommodation within the Point Reyes National Seashore. Its two vacation rentals will be available once this portion of the park reopens.

Travelers looking to book the entire property at any of the sites can contact HI USA's group sales department for more information.
