This lighthouse is actually a private residence on the south side of the Port of Brookings and was not originally intended to serve any navigational purposes, but more as a novelty.
The original lighthouse was constructed by a private individual and lit in 1999. The individual had taken their house and added a light tower to it. Without and unobstructed view of the ocean, the house was moved in 1997, and consequently lit in 1999 with USCG approval.
