We absolutely love Knoebels. We get there at least 1 a yr. We so appreciate you always supporting this establishment. What a great park, with inexpensive rides, food and free parking. And the food is the best of any park I’ve been to. I’d love to support Knoebels but our channel is to small for them to give us the behind the scenes tour that your channel will provide them. This place provides adventure and entertainment at a price from the past. We always feel at home here 🤗 you did a tremendous job!

Wow!! Fantastic effort on all the upkeep, maintenance and improvements at this iconic & beautiful amusement park! The Knoebels Family is to be commended for everything they've done to keep this park open & thriving! I love the history of the park, and I think it's awesome they're always introducing something new. Great job by Stacy, being an excellent tour guide for you & us; and what a special treat to meet Mr. Dick Knoebel, getting ready to celebrate his Birthday after opening day! Great video, Jay!! Thank-You & I look forward to your Opening Day Video, too!!💙😊

I just love this park though I have never been there. No admission or parking fee is so awesome. That's really nice for someone like myself that can't ride a lot of the rides anymore. It's really nice for families that have a mixture of people that like and can do different things. It's such a waste of money to pay a huge entry fee and can't take full advantage of it. Knoebels has such a nice family atmosphere and there's something for everyone. All of that is what keeps this park going. It's good old fashion fun. Maybe if I get up there to visit my son and grandson, we'll get to go there. Thanks JP and Stacey for showing us around and letting us know about the new things and plans for the park. It was awesome meeting Mr. Knoebel. He's a wonderful man that cares so much about the park and the guests.

You feel like you are a million miles away from the crazy world we are living in. We look forward to going every year. It’s always worth the 3 1/2 hr drive. And when you are there everyone else seems just as happy as you are, to be there. It’s hard to leave. Wish I lived closer so I could work there! It’s the best!

the skyslide as a kid, is one of the first things you can spot as you pass the park on way to the entrance. and that also means its the last thing you spot as a kid. thats what made it super memorable for me, so it might not bet he experience or anything, although your first time could be kinda terrifying..... When you see the slide you know you hit Knoebels.

That's the same price everywhere at the concessions. The admission is free so they try to make money any where they can. It's MUCH worse when the big guys do it, charging all that money for admission. Try $6-$10 from a vending machine.... Like Disney, pfff, that place is milking people for every cent they have!!! Food is ridiculous. Cheapest real food they have is like $10/$15 for a Sam's Club sample size of something, TINY one-bite sized portions for some stuff. $7 for a 1/3 scoop of ice-cream in a plastic shot glass, and a toothpick to eat it with, and that was pre-pandemic... not even exaggerating, it's nuts... Hundreds for a ticket and they make record profits, all greed, no mercy... That company is literally evil, I refuse to go there. Cedar Point, their price is more than fair and doesn't change much over the years. 20 years ago it was $50 at the gate, what is it today? $80? But still $50 online today. Hardly went up at all. Worth every penny. Last time I was there they had a Chick-fil-A, pretty much the same price as home. And concession prices weren't too bad either, same as any fairground/festival. I love that place.
