Beautiful setting for any number of activities. Do take the time to get a permit if getting pictures done here. Park staff is always present and they are quick to fine those who don't take care of this simple administrative task.

Small, but nicely done with pleasant staff. Good for kids as it's small and has open outdoor spaces. Only open 3 months a years, so has a stuffy smell when it is within first couple weeks of opening.
