    I have no faith with this help for pple with homelessness. Cause I am not on drugs and never been…read moreevicted, yes I do have head issues but thats for another time. To get into the shelter I got this response they asked if I was on drugs cause apparently I am homeless cause I must have not paid my rent, or I am on drugs, well no I dont do them dont even smoke cigarettes I lived in my place for 10 yrs had to leave property was sold and its jus me 43 yrs old female with no kids. So that's a double situation for me. I don't have an issue with pple getting help or having a family they need to take care of but what category since that's what she told me do I fit into? no category so I couldn't get help. So me as a person never been on the streets in my life live in my car scared every night, yet where is the help for pple like me? What category do I fit into according to mayor Coogan and the city council??? All these festivals all these things but again where does a never evicted person, a non drug user, no kids, no pets, don't smoke where do pple like me fit...ohhh thats right I'm not relevant pple like me are not relevant. I can't take it and I won't and thats pretty close. Who will be responsible for that? I have reached out for help I've called useless numbers catholic services no help for me Elliot path no funding so when I am no longer who could have prevented that?? I am one person and no one they say alot of stuff but no one follows through. Some mayor some governor.

    DO NOT STAY HERE: I stayed at the lighthouse for one night. That amounted to $600, and that's with…read morehaving to wait two years for my stay. The lighthouse itself was fine. If you can get around the bugs and the dust and being stranded for 24 hours in the middle of the ocean, you may enjoy yourself. My primary concern is the lack of safety aboard the lighthouse and the lack of care for same. At 7:30 in the morning, a strange man rolled up next to the lighthouse so close as if he was going to tie. I informed the owner, Kevin, that this happened and his response was, " Oh, probably just a fisherman. I have no control over who comes up to the lighthouse because it's public waters." I am a young female, who was staying completely alone. No locks on the doors or windows, including the bathroom door, and this is in Fall River - one of the most dangerous cities in Massachusetts. Days after my stay, the owner decided to contact me and chew me out for not giving a $50 tip. I have no idea where $50 came into play. I would never tip anyone $50 even if they cleaned my entire bathroom with their tongue. But he kept insisting that I owed him $50 for a tip and also calling it a "fee". I have worked in hospitality and tourism for the last five years, and I have never expected, chased a guest for, or been angry about not receiving a tip. I've also never stipulated the amount I was to be tipped. I found the owner wildly unprofessional, rude, and money hungry. He was not at all concerned about the safety of me or other guests for that matter. I would consider myself to be a pretty good guest. I cleaned up after myself and I even did a little extra cleaning for them, since the lighthouse really needed it. But I was met with nasty text messages days after my departure about a $50 tip that they felt entitled to. I'd also like to mention that I'm a cancer patient in my 20's and this is a grown man who makes at least $600 a night per guest and he still had the nerve to try something like this.

    What an awesome lighthouse to visit! We had a lot of fun here. Nick has done a phenomenal job…read morerestoring this lighthouse, he provided the ride out and he was a fantastic host! You can spend the night here giving you the ability to live and understand the life and role of a 19th century lighthouse keeper. The lighthouse is equipped with modern day conveniences such as a modernized kitchen with a sink, refrigerator, microwave, gas cook-top stove, dinnerware and fresh drinking water. It also has solar electricity and indoor heat. There is a bathroom with an eco-friendly vanity & toilet but there is no shower. There is one queen size mattress, a sofa & chairs with a flat screen TV & DVD. You will also find an outdoor propane BBQ that you can cook on as well. You are allowed to bring alcohol, there is NO swimming and no smoking. Check it out!
