Arrive EARLY and do not go on the weekend. We were there this past Wednesday and it was crowded. It opened at 10:00 and we arrived at 10:30. We were able to get a parking space but it took about 30 minutes to get into the park as they only have several turnstiles. BB was full several days by 12:00. If you cannot get there right when it opens try to go later in the day. I think it will be open late in August.
