Cheap Car Rentals Brooklyn NY and Sunken Meadow State Park

Also known as the Governor Alfred E. Smith Park, this was created from several smaller pieces of land until it reached its present size of over 1200 acres. The name comes from the low meadowland that separates the sandy beach on the Long Island Sound from the uplands. The glacier-formed bluffs are breathtaking and a must-see. There are also many activities that you can do here. This is a great place to visit with your cheap 15 passenger car rental New York.

So Much To Do, So Little Time

There is so much to do at Sunken Meadow State Park that you might wonder where to start! Once you get out of your cheap car rental, you will have fun for the rest of the day. There are miles of beachfront on the Long Island Sound where you can relax in the heat of the sun or cool off in the water. There are also miles of hiking trails, including the Greenbelt trail. There are also bike trails, and cross-country ski trails in the winter. Picnic facilities are available if you choose to bring a lunch, but there are also refreshment stands and a cafeteria on the land connected by 314 miles of boardwalk. There are also many golf facilities, including three 9-hole golf courses, a driving range, a putting green, and a clubhouse. They are open at 6:00a.m. on holidays, 6:30a.m. weekdays from May to September, and 7:30a.m. the rest of the year. You can tee off until about an hour and a half before sunset, so be sure to bring your equipment in your cheap 15 passenger car rental New York.
There are a number of programs and events that take place throughout the year. In the summer there is the Summer Run Series, golf tournaments, cross country running, and Children's Summer Theatre. In the winter there are cross country ski clinics. There is also a model airplane show during the year. The trip here is worth it with your cheap 15 passenger car rental New York.
Nature lovers will also enjoy the park. At the west end of the beach where the shore meets the bluffs, a dam separates the creek and marshes from the tidal flats. At the east end of the park, the tidal flats end at the mouth of the Nissequogue River. South of there are 7 acres of undeveloped and heavily rolling hills, allowing for a wide range of flora and fauna. If you stop by the park office on your way from your cheap car rental, you can pick up a bird checklist. The northern part of the park starts with the Greenbelt Trail at the Suffolk County border.
