What Amusement Park is nearest to you?

[Kitty 34]

and how many times have you gone to it?


We live closest to Michigan Adventure and have been there 3 times.

It's probably a toss up between Cedar Point & Michigan's Adventure.
We've been to Cedar Point too many times to count & DH took the kids to Michigan's Adventure but I've never been there.

It's either Six Flags Darien Lake or Fantasy Island - I think they're about the same distance. I haven't been to Six Flags in a couple years, and I HATE Fantasy Island - it's a toilet posing as an amusement park.

Great America(havent been in ages but probably been there a total of 7 times) or Six Flags Marine World (2 times in the last year a few times before it was bought by six flags.)....

First the Ugly - Clementon Amusement Park - I can't beleive this qualifies as a park, I was a life guard at the park in '93 '94.

Second the Rude - Six Flags Great Adventure

Six Flags Over Texas (The Original Six Flags?) in Arlington. I've been so many times I can't tell you exactly. I'd say that through the years I've been more than 100 times

Six Flags Great America is about 35-40 minutes away. I think it is dirty and overpriced, but we take the kids once a year because the younger ones get a free ticket from the school for reading 600 minutes over a 6-week period. It does have some great roller coasters, so there is some redeeming value.

It's a sad little place called Joyland. It consists of much more land than joy. It was thriving in the 60's but they haven't done much with it since then. Although it's only 6 or 7 miles from here, I've been to WDW more times(which is approx 1500 miles from here).

It's Michigan Adventure for us too. I was thinking Cedar Point until you said that one!! It's only closer by an hour.

Six Flags - New England....formerly Riverside Park...about 2 hours away. Haven't been since the Six Flags takeover but kids are now big enough so we'll be heading there in June.

 

[catsrule]

Kings Island, so many times I can't count em' all.

 

[Blondie]

Paramount's King's Dominion. We used to have season passes there for about 7 years straight, but haven't in the past 3 years. The clientele down there is getting a bit scruffy.

I wish I was as close to Busch Gardens Williamsburg...now there is a first class theme park!

 

[dizneenut]

I'm 30 minutes away from Cedar Point. Been there way too many times to count.

 

[Piglet]

Hershey Park -- too many times to count

 

[Robinrs]

Six Flags over Georgia... UGH!

 

[Pam]

Kennywood - 5 or 6 times.

 

[browneyes]

LOL! Robin, I can beat that answer-Lake Winnepasauka. I'm sure all of you have heard of it. 6 Flags is the 2nd nearest to us.

 

[MAC3]

Canobie Lake Park! Salem NH. We live closer to the NH border. Too many times to count.

 

[ShuisFan584]

I guess the closest would be Six Flags Great Adventure, it's about an hour away. I haven't been there that many times, the last time I went was quite a few years ago.

 

[LuvN~Travel]

Visionland. And I've only been once. It was nice enough, just not enough rides. Too spoiled by older parks. Now someone has bought it and will be bringing it back up with improvements. Maybe some more great rides. The biggest, the wooden rollercoaster is great for a small park like that one.
