Favorites and saved places are provided for convenience only. Long Island Parks LLC does not guarantee that a saved location will remain open, accessible, accurate, available, or suitable for any particular purpose.
Unless otherwise stated, saved favorites are intended to be private account features. However, Long Island Parks LLC may use aggregated or non-personally identifiable information, such as the number of users who have saved or rated a place, to improve the website, generate popularity rankings, recommend content, or display general trends.

Ratings may be based on subjective user experiences and may not reflect current conditions, official park quality, safety, accessibility, management, or maintenance.
Long Island Parks LLC does not verify every review or rating and does not guarantee that user-submitted content is accurate, complete, current, or reliable.
Users should independently verify important details, including hours, closures, fees, permits, rules, dog policies, accessibility, parking, trail conditions, and facility availability, with the official park operator or appropriate authority before visiting.

User-submitted public content, such as reviews or ratings, may remain published after account deletion unless removal is required by law or approved by Long Island Parks LLC. In some cases, content may be anonymized rather than removed.
