Love this view too - I've got to go there next time I go to photograph the elephant seals. #10868496

Thank you Bonnie, Carol and Robert.

Robert, The tour includes the grounds and lighthouse. Fantastic ocean views, a private cove used by elephant seals. Not the large number found down the coast. Currently, they are raising funds to restore the lighthouse. This would include the top and stairway. #10868558

Thanks - do they allow tripods inside? #10868669

Carla Capra Anderson October 11, 2013

No. Ask about monopods. #10869151
