East Brother Light Station Bed & Breakfast Inn

Built in 1873, this beautifully restored California Victorian Lighthouse Inn - perched atop an island in the strait separating the San Francisco and San Pablo Bays - provides a unique California destination.

East Brother Light Station

Our Lighthouse Inn

The island is the perfect choice for an intimate overnight stay or a special weekend event. Each of our five rooms features nautical décor and a beautiful bay view. We look forward to welcoming you soon! 

Epicurean Table

Dinner is four courses of delight, accompanied by wine, a unique and delicious experience you will share with up to four other couples at a community table. Breakfast is no less a work of culinary art.

Impeccable service

Our innkeepers live on the island to ensure you get everything you need. They also provide an overview of island's history and information about restoration efforts.

Location

With the island an hour's drive from downtown San Francisco, relaxation has never been easier. You can immerse yourself in the island's history while enjoying spectacular views of the San Francisco skyline or Mount Tamalpais.

We had an AMAZING time this weekend! Dre and Charity were so nice and made us feel very welcome. After we got to the island, each couple received a DELICIOUS charcuterie board and champagne or sparking cider. Later, they served us a 4 course dinner...with as much wine as we wanted. In the morning, the fruit and homemade quiche were amazing, We stayed in Walter’s Quarters in the old fog horn building, and the view from the room was BEAUTIFUL!!! Overall, our stay was PERFECT, and beyond our expectations! Highly recommended!!!

We live in Oakland and were looking for a quick and easy getaway for our anniversary. The East Brother Light Station has been on my list for years....There is a lot to be said for the isolated island experience. Dre and Charity were great hosts! They didn't give a bunch of rules....(and) the food was delicious. They accommodated some other guest's dietary requests that were provided in advance.

What a great experience to sleep at the lighthouse. Dray and Charity were wonderful hosts , they greeted us and showed us around the island . Dray is a great chef and fed us with great food. Charity is gracious and kept us all fed and comfortable. All the rooms have great views of the bay. And it’s so close to home but you feel a world away. Great stay, we will be back.
