This was our first visit, and it was absolutely phenomenal. Just a lot of hidden gems and things you wouldn’t see at a more corporate size park. The rides were thrilling for adults and my three and six-year-old. Plus unlike many amusement parks where adults cannot ride with their children- almost every single kiddie ride allows adults as well. We stayed for four hours and we’re able to do all the rides plus a couple repeats. Of course, seeing Santa was the cherry on top. All the rides were clean and even looked freshly painted. Four of us pretty much ate for under $30 for lunch. We did not do the water park, but it was crystal clear and very clean And even most of the ride operators seemed to enjoy their job and were very friendly and talkative. I have to give a really big shout out to the gentleman that was operating the Ferris wheel on most of August 16th. He was waving to my kids as they went by and struck up a conversation with me and was very friendly. But to the disrespectful guy in the gray tank top-(he started telling the Ferris wheel ride operator off because the rides started closing down at 5:45) you need to do better especially in front of your family. Not that you’ll ever read this, but in hopes that someone would know this incident it was completely uncalled for, especially taking it out on college aged kids. On that topic, though, I think my only suggestion would be to better post that you shut the water park down at 5:30 and rides at 5:45 because to even get to that information on your website you have to go to info and then scroll down and I think that information should be on ticket sales and on signs throughout the park to avoid employees getting yelled at and disappointed patrons who time things out in the last hour.

I've been coming to the Land of Make Believe since I was just a little girl, my first job was as a lifeguard in the water park, and now I'm bringing my children!! We live just 2 minutes away so we get the season pass and its always well worth it!! The kids always have fun, they r ages 10, 7 & 2 so there are three very different personalities, opinions, likes and dislikes and the LOMB does a great job of making sure there is something for all the different ages and likes!! The staff are for the most part kind and helpful, u will have the occasional one that makes ur eyes roll but u will do more eye rolling at all the ignorant guests u will be encounter throughout ur visit. This is the only negative I have for the LOMB. One example (and trust me I can tell many examples!) My 2yo daughter and I were waiting for her turn on the little clam slide in the pool area, as my daughter stood on the first step I bent over to fix her bracelet (that I put on her ankle) and this young boy, probably 7yo comes and pushes me in my head, pushes my daughter over to rush up the slide where there were 2 more kids waiting to slide too. Well I stopped him and told him he needed to show me the adult in charge of him. So when I told his mom what happened, well the way he acted made lots of sense after 2 seconds of being in front of this lady. So my suggestion if u live close, get a season pass and go on days they call for storms later in afternoon bc most, not all, but most won't come bc there is no rain refunds. And if u do go on a crowded day, (AVOID DAYS THERE ARE FIELD TRIPS) You should prepare yourself for other guests who might not have manners and are rude. Otherwise, enjoy the LOMB, it is forever a special place to me!!

I'm not satisfied with their policy. The park is lovely and seems tailored for children, but I strongly dislike their policy for kids under 3. They don't charge anything for toddlers, but they limit their access to many rides, even if they meet the height requirements. They only inform you about this restriction when you purchase tickets, but they don't communicate that there are many rides which toddler is going to miss. There are several rides for toddlers with a height requirement of 36 inches or above, and most of these rides require parental supervision, making them safe for young children. It's frustrating that the park management doesn't inform parents in advance or offer the option to pay extra for their eligible toddlers. It would be much better if they explained this policy clearly during admission or through advertising. Additionally, there should be an easier way to purchase tickets for children within the park, considering that most parents visit with their kids in mind. It's disappointing when kids can't fully enjoy the rides they are eligible for due to this policy. We paid $33 per adult, and the rate for kids aged 3 and older is the same. The water park is fantastic, and kids can have a great time there. The staff is friendly. However, on busy days, finding a parking spot nearby can be a bit challenging. When it comes to food options, there are various choices, but for vegans and vegetarians, aside from fries and popcorn, there are limited options. It's advisable to bring enough cash with you because most transactions within the park are cash-only. A tip for parents: If your child is under 3 but meets the 36-inch height requirement, consider buying an extra ticket so that your toddler can enjoy the rides to the fullest. It's frustrating that the management assumes parents are trying to get a free ride for their toddlers. In my experience, most parks restrict entry based on height, not age. If a child is allowed to enter, they should be able to enjoy all eligible rides based on their height.
