Ditto to pretty much everything said above. Stayed at Seastar Nov/Dec and the lane is an easy walk day and night, though at night I might not walk alone. Bring a flashlight for walking at night, there are some dark spots on the lane, especially if the power goes out. Generators at Seastar are great, but don't help on the road. On a moonless night it is DARK.

Wise Choice is a great little grocery, has pretty much everything you could want. We never figured out its exact closing time, but it was somewhere around 8, so if you need late night snacks, shop early.

AhhBee's Burgers is just down the road from Seastar lane and is great. If you are looking for a venue a bit more special for dinner, Ivan's at Catcha Falling Star is great after 5pm. Even for just a drink it is a great spot for sunset.

We haven't been anywhere on that part of the cliffs I'd call a no go.

If you head to Out of Town Pastry, Just Natural is only a few hundred yards beyond and was a really great experience.
