The Lighthouse Hotel & Travel Guide

The Lighthouse is definitely a place worth seeing.

It is located in Amarillo, roughly 400 miles (644 kilometers) from the state capital, Austin.

Part of what makes The Lighthouse so special is the remote area that it's located in. However, this also means that there aren't any accommodations nearby. Why not make some enquiries 20 miles (32 kilometers) away at the Courtyard by Marriott Amarillo Downtown? If that doesn't suit your itinerary, try the Holiday Inn Express Hereford, 40 miles (64 kilometers) away, or the Holiday Inn Express & Suites East Amarillo, 18 miles (29 kilometers) away.

Other Things to Do Near The Lighthouse

On top of The Lighthouse, here are some more things in the region you'll want to do:

Get an authentic glimpse into life on the land at Elkins Ranch. Visitors will be able to meet the farmers, pet an animal or two and learn how the farm works.
Palo Duro Canyon is a place that makes you feel small, in a good way! Get in some sight-seeing if you're hiking in the surrounding area.
Whether you have a trained palate or just love drinking wine now and then, Bar Z Winery is an excellent place to try the local flavors.

"The amenities were amazing. Very family oriented, my granddauters had a blast! You walk into seeing gorgeous western murals. The gift shop leaves you wanting everything! And then into the courtyard! Filled with greenery; trees, flowers, and plants throughout!! Swings and seating tucked away all around a gorgeous fountain with beautiful fish to watch. Games and activities for kids and adults! Breakfasts were good! And the cook nailed it each time! Absolutely amazing! We'll be back!"
