Lighthouse Keepers
The Light Station has been continuously staffed 24 hours a day since 1994 by Association members who serve as volunteer Keepers at their own expense, while serving one-week shifts. The Association membership has grown to 580 family units, composed of approximately 1,400 individuals. If you are not an Association member, and want the opportunity to be a volunteer Keeper, visit our Membership page to become a member.

The Keeper's Quarters has three main bedrooms, two with queen size beds and one with a double and a twin. There is also a smaller bedroom with two twin beds. Maximum capacity is 7 people. A fully equipped kitchen and dining room, 2 bathrooms,living room and recreation room are for your enjoyment.

Two or three couples (or some combination of 4-6 adults and a few children) serve as Keepers each week. Children must be six (6) years of age or older. Only current members of the New Dungeness Light Station Association are eligible to be Keepers. Keepers have specific duties at the Light Station and to the visiting public.

The Light Station may not be suitable for the physically challenged, as the duty of a Keeper is a physical job and includes giving tours of the light tower (74 steps!), mowing the lawn, minor upkeep duties, etc.

Keeper transport day is usually Saturday at the lowest possible tide, which sometimes occurs in the middle of the night.

All persons (adults and children) staying at the Light Station are required to view an Orientation & Safety video, sign a release and pay a Keepers fee set yearly by the Board of Directors. Currently, this fee is $315 per adult, and $165 per child (under 18).
