Nice place to visit. Took our 2 girls and got them the unlimited ride bands. Unfortunately they were not able to use them o. The water boat bumper cars. You need to purchase an additional 3 ticket each at $1.75 per ticket. I feel this is ridiculous after I just $70 for them to have unlimited rides. Besides that, they had a great time and liked the games as well. All the rides and games are very old and need renovations. We had lunch at a little shop within the park and it was not worth it at all. I wish I would have known earlier about the additional restaurants across the street. One of my girls got a slice of cheese pizza and it looked like it had been reheated several times. She couldn't even eat it. Overall the girls had fun and it was a nice day. Probably will not visit again.

I visited for the nostalgia. I was looking forward to playing the old time games like skee ball on the same machines I had played on as a child at Playland. While the very same machines are there, it seemed that they had not been serviced in decades. Many were completely out of order, while others only partly worked. Without the lights working it made it nearly impossible to track your score when rolling the balls and without the lights and sounds it just didn't seem as fun. I visit every couple of years, but this time it was so disappointing and sad, I probably will not be back. As you can tell by the pictures, the place was totally dead. We were the only people at each attraction we stopped at in the amusement park late afternoon on a Friday in August

Love going here with my kids or my friends to play the arcade games. It's a shame half the games don't work and the other half only work as far as playing goes but won't give you the tickets you're owed. We started to feel really bad about having to ask the poor overwhelmed employee to come look at the machines and give us the proper amount of tickets. It's still a fun time to go play some ski ball but, I would not say any ride there is worth the $5.25-$7 each ride costs. The nostalgia is still very alive but the infrastructure is failing faster by the day. It's too bad the economy has made it impossible to bring it back to it's glory. Glad it's still open though, the day it closes permanently would be a very sad day I hope never comes.

On a road trip from Ohio visiting amusement parks in PA and NY and made a stop here for a few hours. This place feels just like a nostalgic seaside amusement park from the 50s. We were totally blown away by Galaxy, their roller coaster. It was so much fun that we rode it several times. The staff was friendly, but a bit short handed. They were able to cover all the rides though. They have so many spinny flat rides and some serious classics. They have one of only 6 surviving Roll-O-Plane rides left in existence! They also have a pretty rare Pretzel fun house. The Scrambler is in great shape and is currently the oldest one I was ridden!

I think we spent all summer here this year. Definitely going to look in to getting season passes for next year. If you're not swimming, then relax on the beach, or go fishing, or ride rides, or play games, or go to the playground or eat..there's always enough to do in this tiny park. And then right outside of it as well either shops, bars, candy stores, wine slushies, ice cream stands and gift shops. It's free to enter, but $10 to park, if you park inside the amusement park/Beach.

Old school rides. .25 cent games. What a beautiful place! Steel horse carrosel. Original Zotar. Love it! 7 8 2023 I absolutely love this park! If you want to enjoy an old school theme park by the lake take the time to visit. 8 29 2024 Still loving the old school theme park. Everyone is so friendly. I'm from South Carolina and hospitality is rare these days. I would definitely bring my grandchildren here and have no worries. Thank you for keeping this park clean and safe.
