Cedar Point Review | A Comprehensive Overview & Guide to America's Roller Coast

[@gui2980]

Cedar Point just has a very special spot in my heart. It is a lot more to me than just an amusement park. I've always wanted to visit it, which seemed a rather distant reality for me since I was born and raised in Brazil. I spent years and years of my life watching videos on KZbin and dreaming of the day when I'd finally have the chance to be there myself. After a lot of planning and saving I finally had the chance to do so in 2022. I met the love of my life during my visit to Sandusky, who happens to have worked at Cedar Point for over a decade. We got married last year and I now live in just across the lake from the park and can not only call Cedar Point my home park but also see it from my balcony. My life changed completely because of my first ever visit to CP! Sometimes it just feels unreal to me that I get to visit the park pretty much daily, even if just to go grab some food and walk around with my partner. Cedar Point is so special to me!

[@joinjoshoutdoors5866]

That's awesome to hear brother for real. I do the same I have a good pass and will go to Kings Island which is my home park and I'll walk around get some food and ride just a coaster or 2 that has a short line. It's fun to just walk around and listen to the sounds sometimes and just have a relaxing day. I'm going to Cedar point for the first time this coming Monday and Tuesday and I can not be any more excited about it. 2 more days and I'll be in the park riding steel vengeance, Maverick and more.

[@thatdude4257]

Ive gone to this park every single year since 2005. I can tell you this is by far the most comprehensive video. Well done. My personal favorite thing to see is the ride graveyard that has tombstones of when rides of past were opened and when they closed down. Its a cool way to pay respects to old memories!

[@arrondentinger2086]

I was fortunate enough to live only 35 minutes away from Cedar Point when I was growing up and have visited the park probably 100 times over the years, even being a season pass holder for quite a few years when I was in my late teens and early 20's. I also got to experience the height of the coaster wars and ride coasters such as Millennium, Top Thrill, and Maverick the years that they came out. To say that I was fortunate in that respect would be an understatement.

[@car_tar3882]

So glad to see someone mention getting to a park without owning a car 🙌

[@brandoncole5533]

Fr it's destroying my plans to go like how am I supposed to get back from the park with an Uber do they just let them come around back to pick me up?

[@AustinWoods-b2g]

[@scottcopeland3730]

My family of 6 did a Lighthouse Point cabin once, and it was a fantastic experience. The best advice I received, which I followed, was to leave the park at dinnertime for a couple of hours, and use the grill to make dinner. Not only was that cheaper than dinner in the park but it allowed us to relax a couple of hours and recharge to then return to the park until close.

[@VolguusZildrohar]

Also a great time for some night rides! Steel Vengeance has always had fast ops and after dark, you have the run of the park for a couple hours.

I feel so fortunate I live an hour away. I've already gone 8 times this year and will never get tired. The city of Sandusky is very underrated. It's very gorgeous with lots of buildings from the 1800s.

Not trying to be creepy but I am looking for a local group to join…if you are towards Cleveland, can I join one of your group trips? I live 46 mins away from park south of Amherst, finally moved to Ohio after wanting to visit this park for 12 years now, but it seems impossible to get an Uber or Lyft back and don’t want to be stranded as a young woman by myself.

[@HiddenWavePlayz]

Wild Mouse has some station music too, and I love how calm and classic it sounds

[@sevining]

Great overview. Living in Michigan, I tend to take Cedar Point for granted. Your video made me smile and realize that CP really is special.

[@andyg4929]

My wife and I visited Cedar Point for our very first time last year on our honeymoon! It was right after Memorial Day weekend. We got a 3 day pass/Hotel Breakers bundle. It came out to like $1300 and some change after tax. But worth it since it was our honeymoon. The park itself really is an enthusiasts dream. It has everything you could want, and depending on what time of the year you go the lines aren't too crazy. We've been to many parks in the short year that we've been married, Cedar Point is just magical to us. Fingers crossed TT2 works out its kinks and is up and running sometime in the near future!

[@coasterworld44]

I love how you guys finally made a new cedar point review. It was pretty overdue 😂

[@CoasterStudios]

looooong overdue! Glad we could finally get around to making this video. Now we just gotta update some others that are somehow still up there! Looking at you Kings Island...

[@coasterworld44]

@@CoasterStudios ki is my home park so that would be much appreciated

[@clevelandcbi]

I KNOW this sounds weird, but the fact that Magnum is so forgotten breaks my heart. It was THE freaking coaster my first time there as a kid. Blew my mind. First 200' coaster ever made. Now it's "boring" to my kids because every other coaster is faster, taller, or has inversions etc. I'd love CP to revamp it somehow. Maybe add a tilt?? IDK. I just hate that it's so underappreciated these days.

[@mutedmutiny9542]

Lol I remember BEFORE magnum when Gemini was "the ride" lol. Magnum is still an all-time classic though, one of the best ever.

[@woody72691]

It's not forgotten I don't know where you got that logic from

[@neonthefox3550]

Both Gemini and Magnum are very fun

[@xmanzy7293]

Magnum was just too rough for me enjoy. It was hard to enjoy the airtime when you’re being tossed around so much. I can see why it’s so beloved though.

[@mutedmutiny9542]

​@@xmanzy7293 I have never even thought about how rough a ride was, including Meanstreak which apparently was one of the roughest ever. I never knew of this at the time, but since then have seen people say how it was brutally rough, to the point that they had to redesign the ride, and I just don't have any memory of that at all. I may sound old here but I think it may be generational. There was a time when pretty much every coaster was rough and the designers didn't even think about how smooth the ride would be, so when every one is like that, you either accepted it as part of the deal, or you didn't ride.

[@christianortiz-v1l]

By far my favorite theme park ever! Absolutely worth it! Definetly need to visit at least once in your life! Must spend 3 days there because there's so much to do there!

[@HotelBedSheets]

I cried watching this 🥲I need to experience this park so bad. Before the video even started, I was telling myself, this is my dream park lol and then your intro started "Cedar Point is every coaster enthusiast's dream" Take me with you!

[@ceejw]

I grew up living 2 hours from Cedar Point and my parents would pull me and my siblings out of school on a random weekday in May to go to Cedar Point every year until we graduated high school. Growing up in the 90s and getting to ride stuff like Raptor, Mantis, Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster on their opening years when they were brand new was truly magical. I'm in my 30s now and have only recently started visiting other regional parks throughout the US and it's made me appreciate the variety of coaster types that Cedar Point has. The only park I've been to that has the variety they do is Six Flags Magic Mountain.

[@stevencangruuv5661]

My 1st trip was June 28, 2017. I had been wanting to go since the early 2000's. We stayed at a hotel near CLE Airport and caught an Uber from there to the park 1st thing the next morning. Got there when gates opened and stayed til near closing. HAD A BLAST! We requested an Uber back, but didn't know at the time that it was still NEW to the Sandusky area, so it was possible we weren't gonna get a ride back. Luckily we did after a 20min wait. Turns out, the driver said he was only the 2ND driver who signed up at the time, so were lucky to get him. Definitely a memorable trip. ❤

[@brandoncole5533]

Dang I hope more people take advantage of Uber in that area especially in the summer. It'd be a gold mine for them

[@Degast92]

I am Dutch, and my brother lives in Ohio. A family visit was a great excuse to go there. What was Ironic was that I did the biggest rollercoasters of the park, but got sick on Disaster Transport, because some turn caught me off guard and I bumped my head on the car. The day was still awesome, though.

[@laurenherda2415]

Spent most of my childhood here, getting passes every summer, having our parents drop us and our friends off and we always had the best time, so many memories I'll forever cherish

[@boilercoasters8442]

I’m so happy that this park is only 50 minutes away. I always forget that this is a bucket list destination for coaster enthusiasts all over the world every time I visit. Hope everyone who visits CP for the first time enjoys it as much as I do.

[@MarmiAfrinTsubie]

Same I am 46 minutes south towards cleveland moved to Ohio recently, I’d get a pass if i wasn’t relying on Uber/Lyft though, is there a local cedar point frequenters group or something?

[@spinaxchin]

Being from Detroit, Cedar Point has always been a fond memory of my childhood. I'm going back there for the first time in probably 20 years this Saturday, and I'm honestly really excited to finally be able to ride some of those amazing coasters that I haven't been able to yet! I'll always ride Cedar Creek Mine Ride at least once for nostalgia.

[@cruzbrinager2256]

I live basically right in the middle of cedar point and kings island and I felt the same way when I was younger, that cedar point was this perfect park and I do think it is amazing, but over time kings island has slowing become the best park in Ohio. The atmosphere there is just unmatched.

[@MrRockmusicjunkie]

I live just north of Detroit, this place was a frequent day-trip destination as a kid. I can navigate the entire park with no map. Fantastic place.

[@LucyLoud2002]

Thank you for this updated review. It was long overdue. I have been planning quite a big trip to Carowinds, Hersheypark, and Cedar Point in just 1 trip.

[@exlatior]

Skip Carowinds and go to kings island

[@brianfoss571]

Yep. Carowinds is on track to be great in 10 years as the combined Six Flags / Cedar Fair will be HQ'd in Charlotte. But it's going to need a lot of work to continue undoing Paramount's damage. Kings Island is great now.

[@fredwardandthebear3192]

I agree that King's Island is the better park (it's easily one of the best in the nation), but if you do go to Carowinds I recommend staying in the onsite cabins. I've stayed the past two times I've gone and the bang for your buck is fantastic.

[@JermsState]

@@brianfoss571Same With Kings Dominion. After P305, Twisted Timbers, and maybe Dominator, there really isn’t much and drops off as far as really good rides go. Need more coasters, and to fix up some old ones!

[@brianfoss571]

@JermsState Retracking Grizzly with GG track and retheming Avalanche has definitely helped. I expect Backot Stunt will be getting a safari-oriented retheme soon - all of the former Italian Job coasters are long overdue for it. One possible wild card: if Six Flags decides to sell off Six Flags America and relocate their Gotham City / DC coasters to other parks, then KD might get Superman with a fresh coat of paint, new theme, and tunnels. It would actually fit in well tucked behind Twisted Timbers, providing a good balance to Project 305.

[@wingnutlp2002]

My family and I was just there last Wednesday. It turned out to be a very hot day and great day after the fact. However, the first half of the day was plagued with coaster/ride closures, scheduled, YES SCHEDULED, openings of roller coasters and lack of staff kept too many food options closed (I'm looking at you ice cream shops that don't open until 4pm on a 90 degree day). I LOVE Cedar Point, but for the first time ever, I felt just disappointed in what the park had become. Lucky for my family, the day was spent making memories regardless of the heat and lines were OUTSTANDING (no Fast lane purchased). Longest we waited for a coaster was one hour (Millie and Stevie). Awesome video!

[@Nate-lp2cu]

Nothing better than staying in one of the cottages, waking up and seeing the lake 20 feet from the window, then walking over to the park for early entry. Best way to start a day.

[@augustina01]

[@twpburton]

This video made me so happy and so sad at the same time :/ I visited for my first ever trip this time last week for 3 days. I had the best time and this is my new favourite park and my top 4 coasters are at cedar point! I wish I were still there and I’m sad as I’m not sure when I will get to return! I waited some 30 years to visit and I must return as soon as I can! I live in the uk so it’s expensive to get to. I’m currently in Missouri and visiting worlds of fun on Wednesday and silver dollar city on Thursday. Thank you so much for this great video and reminder of my great trip!

[@diveloopthrills7613]

I love Cedar Point. Absolutely one of the best parks I’ve been to. It’s incredible. Can’t wait to go back soon.

[@chrisroose5863]

Excellent review of the park! Miss the place as I literally grew up visiting there in both the summer and on winter holidays, my grandfather was George A Roose. Worked there two summers (Auntie Em's and Last Chance Saloon) and haven't had the chance to get back to visit. Lots of great memories, so thank you for a job well done!

[@TheBroz]

What a great video, thank you. I also hyped up CP for a looong time. I remeber seeing the Raptor on board video way back no long after it opened and I dreamed of having the chance one day. So a few years ago I thought let’s do this. Got everything booked, flights from the UK, hotel in Sandusky, bought a season pass, everything. Was set to be there for at least 3 days but had some flexibility to do more. That was 2020…. So yeah, everything went bye bye. It was insanely demoralising and I’ve never managed to get everything sorted to re-plan a trip. Maybe one day.

[@VolguusZildrohar]

That's rough. I tried making plans that year - for the big CP anniversary, but all of that was shifted to 2021, which was fine because I had 4 other guests to take that year.

[@VolguusZildrohar]

Me and my family stayed at the Breakers back in 2021. That hotel has that classic "Overlook" feel, white walls, red carpet, big statues in the lobby. If you stay in Sandusky, I wholly recommend the hotel for the premium experience and the beach behind it. But if it's out of your price range, Sandusky Hotel is cheaper, has great rooms, and is very much themed to enthusiasts with cool pictures of the rides in the rooms and on the elevator. I'll have to try a cabin my next trip just for something new.

[@beatapfizer3601]

I just love your channel! Best coaster and theme park related channel on KZbin. Don’t ever quit! 🙏

[@jordanmcwhorter4039]

I have to say, as a kid my home park was kings island and it got me into coasters super heavy. When I would do research on different parks every youtuber mentioned CP. It was always a dream of mine to get here one day. Luckily I now make at least two trips up there every year and man does this park never get old. This place will make any enthusiast feel like a kid again.

[@redrosestwo]

When I was in school my senior year we were able to go to Cedar Point with my high school band and march around Cedar Point playing for people. They had a bunch of school from all over. They were from Ohio, Michigan {were I'm from), Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, etc. It was a fun day.

Got a subscribe from me. This is my home park and your review of this property is spot on. I've been going to this park every year for 50 years and have worked at the park as an in-direct employee for many years. Great job with thoughts and suggestions on this park. Prepare for hot, wet, cold, windy, dry weather, Cedar Point has it's own climate system, and spend two days are keys to a perfect vacation. Love the TT2 jab, it's true, but no one wants to say it.

[@Highlander055]

Mantis was such a fun coaster (despite being hated by the majority) I specifically remember when I was a kid and it was about to be closed down and switched to a different coaster. I went on it at night 10 straigh times because there was 0 line, and I just went to the front everytime. Great memory

[@joelbolton7252]

Excellent recap. I love this park, but as we get older, we can see through everything for what it is at the end of the day - a business.

[@MyEmeraldLife]

Grew up in southeast Michigan and this was "our" park. It was still an almost 2 hour drive so I only got to go maybe a dozen times (as we now live on the west coast) but it still holds a special place in my heat and is for sure the reason I'm a coaster lover now. Maverick and Raptor are my favorite rides there. So glad I got to have many rides Disaster Transport before it closed. I really loved that ride.

[@coastertim5306]

Thank you for your channel. Helped us plan several recent family vacations over the last few years to parks we would have never known about. Best wishes in all your travels this summer. Cedar Point was not originally my home park, Geauga Lake was (sad what happened there.) A couple things... 1. Those two kids areas in the front of the park were always there, they are dated, but I'm not sure all those kids rides over by Windseeker came from Geauga Lake. 2. The other kids area was originally on Gemini midway, then Camp Snoopy opened up. 3. I think Mine Ride could be the next one out, so they can tie into that area you mentioned where nothing has worked, I think it would be a family style coaster 4. Mantis was rough and uncomfortable. You did not miss anything there. 5. When Magnum opened in 1989, it was a 3 hour wait, the queue lines wrapped behind the restrooms and almost down by Corkscrew 6. Anyone coming for the first time should really plan for two days, at least, in order to get the full experience 7. Do you think some of their "arrogance" has to do with the fact that they only have about 5 months to make their revenue for the year, I kind of think that is a part of it, they get May through hopefully October. 8. Restrooms need upgraded. Thanks for the channel, again, best wishes on your summer travels. Keep up the great work!

[@GirlMeetsCoaster]

Cedar Point started my love of coasters. My mom took me on Cedar Creek Mine Ride with my cousin. Then my cousin and I rode Magnum after that. This was back when Magnum was new 🤪 Going back with my young kids has been fun. My 9 year is now a thoosie too! My 5 year old is so eager for the big coasters, just a few more inches to the 48 mark. My fam loves Magnum! It is one of the best night rides at CP!

[@alu.minium521]

First visit was in 1968. Great to see the Blue Streak is still there.

I feel completely lucky that this was my home park growing up and I still consider it the best amusement park in the world! I was only 3 hours from it and I remember going every year since the late 80s and the fact that were part of the coaster wars for many years was a very exciting time for me. I credit this park for making me an enthusiast the way I am today and I'm gonna mention Magnum as the reason for it! Magnum is still in my top 10 favorite coasters, and it still beats MForce for me any day! I do miss CP Operations before the 2010s when Ops were flawless and quick and barely any upcharges for most things. If I could take this park and move it down to FL where I currently live, I would NEVER leave!

I will be visiting there in one month! Last time I was there was in 2008 and I'm super excited to get on everything they've added since then. Driving up from Cincinnati early in the morning, then meeting my college buddies to get to the park at opening then when we're done staying at a hotel near by then getting up early to drive back to Cincy to start a half day of work at 2pm. I'm sure I'm going to be EXHUASTED, but I can't freaking wait!!!! 🙂

[@CoasterBlox]

Magnum is #3 in the park it’s amazing I don’t care what anyone says it’s just awesome. Also if you don’t like a rough ride and still want good airtime like row 3 I recommend rows 16 or 17 they are awesome

[@RobertZink-eb2qc]

I went to Cedar Point last week for the first time in over a decade. The rides are still as incredible as I remember them to be when I last went as a high schooler. However, I felt like the lines were much longer. I went on a Monday (given it was the week of the 4th of July) but I was not expecting all the main rides to 1-2 hour lines, all day, on a Monday. I had a blast but was bummed I missed the Maverick simply because there wasn't enough time to hit all the main coasters when you're waiting 90+ minutes 5 or 6 different times. I have no issue waiting that long for the Millennium Force, Steel Vengeance, etc. but to wait 60+ mins for the mid tier coasters was a bummer and was not expected. I frequented the park in the late 2000s and early 2010s and don't recall ever waiting more than 45 mins for anything other than millennium force and dragster.

[@NEOThoosie]

so glad to be there as a passholder for my home park. can't get enough of it

[@DanCrowleyNYC]

Excellent review. I have to get back there, it's been 20 years this year since I've been there and I remember the bugs all over me when I rode Top Thrill Dragster in the front row at night. Definitely need at least two days next time we go.

[@jefcoble8827]

[@markst.germain9286]

When you have the season pass you learn there's much more than rides shows good food and incredible Beach water park and parking included.

[@DrR0BERT]

I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, and CP was always a must go to at least once a season. The last time I went was the year Millennium Force opened, and I got to ride it three times. I want to go back, but I know that being from California it will require some planning. The one thing I will definitely do is stay on property AND pay for the Fast Lane / Food packages. Seeing that it's been 25 years since I was there, that this would be a special visit. And maybe Magnum will be up and running. (The last three times I went, all after it opened, the coaster was down.)

[@spectroman71]

I'm encouraged by the shots of the ride operators doubling/tripling up to speed up load cycles and the fact that you mention 2-3 trains per ride. That is NOT the case at Knott's that's for sure. If they are really that efficient, that's great. California's Great America is super on top of fast load cycles as well.

[@Starwarman1]

cedar point is my home park, i grew up in norwalk, only 15 minutes away, you drove through it taking 250 if youve driven to cedar point. god i was so spoiled. id like to say, on a hot summer day, go ride magnum xl 200, it gets running FAST on a hot day, one of the most underated coasters, and the queue tends to be a lot less compared to the more modern flagships, while being dang near as good, best bang for the buck coaster in the park.

[@karenwilliams6760]

Thanks for the review, I just reminded why I go back year after year!

[@samuelfriday4745]

My one trip to Cedar Point was in 2016. I bet my mother that if I beat her SAT scores, she'd take me for a two-day trip. We left Massachusetts on a Thursday night, stayed in a hotel near the MA/NY border, drove to the park all day Friday, and stayed in a nearby hotel for the next couple nights. After two full days at the park, we drove all the way back in a single marathon day. Haven't been back since, and after my eye surgery in 2019, I can't ride roller coasters anymore without risking re-detaching my retina, so glad I got my Cedar Point trip before that happened

[@patrickn8355]

As someone from Toledo who hasn’t been since 2017, I truly cannot wait to go again. Hoping to make a trip to see mah for halloweekends 🤞

[@Katt1721]

Went here for the first time a couple years ago (Alexandria VA native, so my home parks were always Kings Dominion & BGW growing up and have mostly been to other east coast parks). Definitely felt like a milestone just driving up to the peninsula and seeing the coaster skyline.

[@ryanjones8227]

My wife and I are currently at Cedar Point for the first time. We've been here 2 days and have one more day here, then 2 days at Kings Island for our first trip there. We're from Central VA, so BGW and KD are our home parks. CP is definitely a better coaster park than both BGW and KD, but my wife and I both agreed that we like BGW as a whole more than CP

[@zachfarb9039]

Went for the first time during coaster mania weekend I agree with all your points. I already want to go back even more than a trip to Disney.

Great video man! I remember watching your old review of the park and it built anticipation! My first visit was in 2018 and I usually go every year (except 2020, 2021, & 2022) and often a few times per year! Canada's Wonderland is my home park but I go here so much that I consider it to be my 2nd home park! Awesome review!

I’m a pass holder living in Detroit and i grew up visiting this park. My magnum opinion is that if you get stapled, you are gonna have a damn awful time. If you don’t, one of the best rides in the park for sure. Also you can rep it so much. Most of my visits this year it’s been walk on-15 mins all day

[@jamarjobs]

I love Magnum. I rode it the year it opened and it was the first roller coaster I ever rode. It blows my mind to go there now see how short the wait it is for it. It’s steel one of my favorite roller coasters there.

The All Day meal plan is my favorite.

I got to visit Cedar Point as part of my graduation trip! Don’t know when I’ll be able to go back (Texan here), but I had a blast! TT2 may not have been open, but with so many awesome rides in one park it’s hard to walk out dissatisfied.

[@JoshuaMoore831]

Truly love when you guys re-review parks! I really hope you do it with your Europe trip!

[@HoodedOlive]

We got to go to Cedar Point last year and stayed on site at light house point however we camped in a trailer. The spots were very nice. Additionally the comience of having your own trailer very close to the Magnum gate was great. Personally I loved Steel Vengeance and Millenium Force. Probably would’ve like Maverick more if I didn’t wait 3.5 hours having two breakdowns and somebody puking when we got up to the ride. But yeah wish I could be back and I know I will in the future!

Spectacular video on the BEST park.... Cedar Point deserves the cockiness. It is simply the best park, but again great. Great video on cedar point, except for the last couple of minutes

[@renes.2987]

I was at Cedar Point in August and and we avoided Magnum, Corkscrew and the other older rides like Gemini etc. because we didn't want to get a headache right away. Fast Lane is almost priceless. 19:45 that's a great idea. Unfortunately Top Thrill 2 was closed and I won't be able to get to Cedar Point anytime soon because I'm from Europe.

[@MichaelLoudenTV23]

Cedar Point is my favorite amusement park. I haven't been there in a few years. My wife and I have been going to other amusement parks around the US.

[@ScottyMania313]

I agree 100% with everything in the video. Well done Tay Bizzle! I thoroughly enjoy this review.

[@joshuagray17]

My pilgrimage to cedar point is happening this week and I can’t explain how excited I am. It’s a shame that top thrill 2 will be closed but still exciting.

[@MarkRidesCoasters]

I visited in July ‘22, but due to some time restrictions, bad weather and traffic I only ended up having about 5 hours to spend my day there. I did get a fast pass, so that helped, but in the end I only had the chance to ride Gatekeeper, Raptor, Valravn, Millennium Force, Rougarou, Maverick and Steel Vengeance. The only coaster I really missed out on is Magnum. I mean, I would have loved to experience Blue Streak or Gemini, but I came for the big ones and those I did. Dragster was obviously SBNO at that time, so I knew beforehand that I wouldn’t get to do it. Anyway, it’s an incredible park and I’ve only been able to see half of it! Doesn’t really matter though, because I kinda came for SteVe and to this day it’s still my #1, so it was worth it. I’d love to come back one day and do the rides I missed, but that’ll set me back about €6000 soooo probably not. Once in a lifetime park for me, I think. Never say never. All in all I’ve made some memories for life there.

[@TommySawtooth]

This video was really well done! Thank you for your hard work! I would like to see a Magic Mountain video with this comprehensive treatment.

[@CoasterStudios]

Magic Mountain is definitely due up for a new review. The last time I did one for it I believe was in 2016. That was pre Wonder Woman and West Coast Racers. Since they are getting a new coaster next year I will probably wait till that one opens for doing a video on it.

[@TommySawtooth]

@@CoasterStudios Also, the solar panel project should be complete by then. That'll definitely change the arrival experience.

[@jrax1713]

I just visited and it is actually possible to get here without a car. I would definitely recommend the Amtrak from Cleveland and once you’re in Sandusky if you’re staying at a hotel off property, use the Sandusky taxi service.

[@saraslate2362]

We were there all week! We had so much fun.

[@abbyrose7125]

Been going since 2000, my first ride was the Millenium Force (which I wasn't tall enough to be on!). I've been going back every 2 - 4yrs since 😊

[@Cranchit]

I have been to Cedar Point twice and I would definitely recommend staying at the cheaper hotel cedar point shores. It’s average hotel but it does still help you out when you are booking your vacation including the early access. I have ate at the restaurant Melt a couple times and it’s a good place to sit down and rest and staff was very helpful especially since someone had Dramamine which worked for me. I would also recommend getting a locker at the front entrance to the park so you are not bouncing from locker to locker location. Only draw back is it’s a long walk back to the front. Bring your walking shoes.

[@dlopez8104]

Great timing for this video im going in a couple weeks

[@hucklesnook1848]

We live in a bordering state and LOVE Cedar Point!

[@VividlySkip]

i live about an hour out of cedar point, so i go often lol. my favorite thing to do is get on rougarou when its walk-on because its just a solid ride, workers will let you just ride it over and over again lol.

[@JoshGariepy]

Can confirm the Rougarou crew are cool

[@Glebborama]

I was born in Ohio, so I was lucky to have such parks as Kings Island, Geauga Lake, Idora Park, not to mention the neighboring state of PA and its great parks....but the mecca even as a child was Cedar Point. I have such great memories of my huge family of 10 staying at The Breakers and hanging out on the shore making sand castles. As a kid, The Blue Streak terrified me and was THE biggest coaster at the time. The Earthquake dark ride was another favorite. Little by little, the park transformed, adding more and more coasters. When Corkscrew debuted, we lost our minds! Now, it's obviously world class with their newer coasters putting the old ones to shame. My last visit, I didn't even bother with Corkscrew, knowing how janky and uncomfortable it felt. I'm lucky to have the parks nearby that I do now in my home in Los Angeles, but nothing brings me more joy than how Cedar Point feels.

[@bthrx]

Love this park. Used to go on vaction up there every year.

[@austintayloradt]

Home park and season pass holder - I've logged thousands of miles traveling to theme parks with 4 small kids, and Cedar Point is top tier for parents going with kids. Their parent swap pass is by far the best, and areas like their family care centers are a game changer. Without those kinds of things, there's no way I would go as much as I do...they make it easy for parents to experience high thrill attractions, even while giving a great experience to their kids at the same time. That being said, the biggest gap I have seen is rides for the 42" height requirement. Wild Mouse was the perfect addition for that age group - rides like Iron Dragon, Blue Streak, and Cedar Creek Mine Ride are all 48" height requirement, while similar rides are 42" at other parks. So the step between kiddie coasters and the big ones is missing the mark there. In the same vein, Kiddie Kingdom is almost the only area with rides for kids below 36" - so that is actually a really important area of the park for families, more so than Planet Snoopy if you have to pick one. Not saying they couldn't adjust or consolidate both areas somehow, but they definitely need to keep as many rides as possible for kids below 36" or it's a huge obstacle for parents who are considering whether a high thrill park like Cedar Point is also kid friendly. And those are the customers who pay the bills after all (which my bank account reminds me every year).
