This is a hidden place where after a meal out, don't buy the dessert at the restaurant, instead go to Dandelion. Their desserts are cheaper and just as good. You can even enjoy a cup of coffee there. If you go online, you can sign up for even a chocolate tour for a nominal fee, which is given back to you for a store credit to purchase some chocolate or dessert or whatever. The tours generally are at 6 PM each night and lasts about 30 minutes.

Playground for kids and hiking trails abound. Lots to do - even watch kids playing softball. If you like to get up early in the AM before 7 AM, you can venture on the rim hiking trail and potentially see a coyote. Coyotes do not hurt humans, but if you have a small dog, please keep a careful eye on your dog. Coyotes have been known to attack very small dogs.

Hands down the best place I love to visit. The tricky part is that this lighthouse is only open on Fridays through Sundays from about 11 AM to 3 PM. Check the schedule. Amazing views and a lovely bridge to the tiny island with the lighthouse. Well worth the visit. Also stop by the Marine Mammal Center close by.
