Pros

It's outdoors and iconic, with one of the largest collections of historical structures in the nation. It's vast size spans across 3 counties and covers over 80,000 acres.

Cons

Too much red tape and egotistical individuals. There is also too much politics involved here with favoritism through the 'old boy network. The management does not reflect the diversity of the San Francisco Bay Area community. There are too many questionable ethics violations that occur here, that it is a surprise they have not been caught yet.
