Other Thoughts:
19-27 are terrific and worth playing
Great potential but the needs some landscaping help for holes 1-18. I stopped playing my second time thru due to frustration.

Pros:
Beautiful park with some interesting topography. Could be an outstanding course with a lot more attention. Good elevation and rolling hills. Friendly locals and baskets in decent repair.
Cons:
From what we hear, wind is almost a constant issue here. When we played it was close to 25 mph. The course map we downloaded online was more confusing than helpful. Some tees are marked with a sign, others with impossible to find red markers flush with the grass. Unless you can get a local to guide you, you will waste a lot of time searching for the next tee on almost every hole. Many holes run along the side of a busy road, and the course is nearby a major metropolitan airport, so the noise factor is a bit offputting.
Other Thoughts:
As a disclaimer, we only played the first 11 holes on this course before getting so frustrated with the lack of signage that we gave up. So I'm being generous with my score on this one, giving the remaining 26 holes the benefit of the doubt.

Pros:
27 holes are better than 9 or 18. The layout is such that monster holes are often created for tournament play, lots of elevation adds spice.
Cons:
The baskets are in serious disrepair. Very little signage. Parts of the course become unplayable on summer weekends due to picnickers.
Other Thoughts:
CP gets very windy - not a bad thing, but this is one of the windiest places in Toronto. Pearson International Airport is nearby, so it is convenient for travellers, but adds a cacophony of distracting noise. Huge local club play on Monday nights. Apparently a course re-design is in the works.
