"We had a good time. Ticket prices were reasonable. We went early enough in the season that we didn't need flash passes, making it a little more affordable. We didn't eat in the park as food prices were astronomical. Roller coasters and rides were fun as usual. We spent some time in the arcade."

"This place is awesome. My daughter had a blast. Plenty to see and do. Good prices are extremely high but what do you expect at a park."

"The amusement park is very large, to say the least. There is plenty of parking, but the distance from the lot to the park can be quite far. Thankfully, there are transport buses available. If you are a thrill ride seeker or a water park enthusiast, then this park is definitely for you. However, the food prices are outrageous, and the quality is not great. Despite this, the time spent with family having fun outweighs the negatives. I recommend eating before and after your visit to the park."
