Great park. Love the large and classic ride selection. My favorite is Flying Turns. The food is amazing. They have the BEST kettle corn ever!! I love that it is free parking and free admission so people who don’t like to ride many rides can still go and enjoy shows, food, and get to spend the day with their family or friends without spending unnecessary money.

The tea cup ride is a descendant of a larger version called Cuddle Up .They were popular at some parks in the eastern and midwestern US . I was familiar with the installation at Dorney Park near Allentown PA. It , I believe, had four discs and the cups were without saucers . It was a fun ride,but noisy ! Unfortunately all are gone .

The haunted mansion actually has a story that you can read on a white sign posted in the ceiling of the queue canopy. If you search around online you can see it. The owner tried to get a cursed treasure, but it cursed his house, leading to all sorts of weird things, among which was a part of his house turning into a jungle.

I spent around 2 1/2 or 3 hours last Sunday, very wet, around 60 degrees. The Parking lot had a fair amount of cars, but it was so dead in there, most of the people riding had wristbands/stamps, and only 1-2 rows filled on average. Would've been an amazing day to have an all-day pass if i had more time there.
