Very peaceful and well-maintained trail. The main trail is gravel and wood chips, and very clearly marked as it goes around the water. There are several off-shoots if you would like a longer hike, or just keep going around the loop. Plenty of seating at the entrance with picnic tables, wooden chairs, and even a couple bench swings. You can go out on the little pier and enjoy the fresh air, and there are multiple points of interest as you go along the trail. Very dog-friendly with fresh water at the start. Make sure you pay attention to the time if you're there close to sunset, because they close the gate every night. They recently added signs throughout the loop to help inform hikers of this, although the hours have always been posted at the beginning.

All-in-all, well worth the visit, and usually not too crowded, which is nice. We enjoy coming here with all of our family, including our dog and toddler as well as grandparents and great-grandma.
