I quite enjoyed hiking here. It was quiet when I was here (although it was not mountian bike season yet; you share the trail with them), and there was fair weather. A bonus on this hike, during the right season, is a waterfall perhaps 8-10 feet high. It was flowing when I was there, but imagine when it is during the rainy season, it is really moving. The falls are also not limited to one small section, but you can walk along and see all the "little" falls here and there along the entire ledge they flow over. I saw fresh deer tracks, but alas saw no deer this trip. The total of hiking trails is probably around seven miles. The only negative for me is you hike by a small clearing of where they put spare supplies and broken things used for the park/campgrounds. But then again, they have to put it somewhere. Despite that, the whole property is very well maintained, and very clean. There are two different campgrounds here, one of which is private on the lake camping, which costs more (check out their website for details). The caretakers are a pleasure to talk to and full of info if you have further questions. There is a seven dollar permit fee to be on premises or fifty/year (as of this review) but its totally worth it.
