Great signage! Accurate maps and ample navigational aids both at the beginning of the course and on the tee pad signs. Signs are bright and clear.
Good shot variety. I never once got bored throwing on this course. In spite of the lack of elevation, different types of shots are used very well to keep the round interesting. The back 9 opens up a lot and gives you plenty of chances to open up and throw.
Grippy, nice concrete tee pads all in good shape, as I would expect for a new course.
Great variety of shots, including some fun tunnel shots. There isn't a lot of elevation out here, but the woods are used very well and make for a fun round.
This course is very spread out and doesn't play over itself very often, which is really nice.
The course is in a very large park (that I was totally unaware existed here during the 2 years I lived in Manhattan), but I didn't see many non-DG players out here. Just one couple walking a dog. That might be different when school is in session, but it was pretty dead non DG-wise when I was out there in July.
Plenty of parking! I didn't see many benches or other creature comforts out there, but I think most of us are here to play, not sit on benches.
Not that there's anything wrong with that!
The scenery on this course is nice for the most part. I really like how the woods were incorporated in the first 9 holes, very nice.
