Great little older motel. Well maintained and very clean. Great location. Parking is quite tight ( a little tough for a big truck). Staff was wonderful. Plan on returning some day.

Literally steps from the old lighthouse! Able to get free shuttle to Shepler’s ferry dock from there so didn’t have to move the car: the motel desk lady told us about it! Gave coupons and information freely! Everything about the stay was great! Clean rooms and adjustable thermostats!

Kenneth, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Lighthouse View Motel surpassed our expectations. My friends and I spent four nights there, and it was the best experience we've ever had. The place is very clean and safe, and the staff is very friendly. It feels like a family. We also learned a lot about our daily itinerary and other activities in the area. I highly recommend this place, and it is well worth the price. I give this motel 10 stars and two thumbs up!
