Was perfect for a family celebration! All ages of kids and adults all had something to do with hikes, the dam, the furnace, the water, and the playground. The park ranger was very nice and helpful, providing volleyballs and horse shoes (if i remember correctly). We really had a good day and hope to return, maybe with our bikes.
