Abstract: A decorative lighting stake assembly maintains at least one decorative light above a surface. The decorative lighting stake assembly includes: (i) a holder configured to selectively hold at least one decorative light therein; and (ii) a stake selectively, removably coupled to the holder. The stake selectively couples the holder to the ground surface. The stake is separately deployable from the holder prior to coupling the holder to the stake. In use, the stake is selectively driven partially into the ground surface, after which the holder is selectively coupled to the stake. The stake has a first end and a second end. The first end is configured to be inserted into a ground surface to a desired depth and the second end is configured to be coupled to the holder. The holder has a receiving end which selectively, removably receives at least one individual light socket therein, so that at least one light is selectively deployed by inserting a socket of the light into the receiving end.
