Abandoned Boblo Island in Detroit Michigan / Windsor Ontario Canada. Resting in the Detroit River, this little island brought fun to everyone in the area for decades! #bobloisland #bobloislandamusementpark #coastertiktok #coasterrider #rollercoastertok #rollercoaster #amusementparks #amusementpark #rollercoasterchallenge #rollercoasterride #amusementparkwarriors #themeparktikok #themeparkrides #themeparks #themepark #amusementparkrides #amusementparkmadness #coasterenthusiast #coasterenthusiasts #coastertok #abandonedamusement #abandonedamusementparks #abandonedamusementparksrides #abandonedamusmentparks #bobloisland #detroitamusementpark #michigan #detroit #windsor #amusementparkhistory #amusementparks🎡🎠🎢

Formerly known as Boblo Island, now known as Bois Blanc Island, with private residences taking up most of the island now. A well known and beloved amusement park once covered this island, all that is left are a few buildings and a lot of memories. You can still visit this island for a small ferry fee.

I loved going there as a kid.One of my favorites was the former Space Needle.Visitors would enter a mobile observation deck that would rise along the length of the tower and offer great views around the Island.

The island is nice, and I visit family that live on the island all the time. There is one bald gentleman that is occasionally at the ferry, and there is ALWAYS an issue with him. Was very rude, and would get into some sort of argument over literally nothing. I have seen him have verbal altercations with other cars as well. His name is Pete, and I was advised to "just ignore and avoid him" because apparently issues are common with him. I don't know if he owns the island or the ferry, but what an absolute terrible way to treat guests. He will get close and intimidate you, and stare at you. Has completely ruined going over for me, as there is always an issue when...

I may never make it back here again could I have found memories that I can still picture today riding in the old fashioned cars and in the gondolas they should put this back to being a...

Firstly a place where couples from both Detroit USA& Windsor,Canada would go taking a romantic trip to this island. My mother now deceased at 94+went so many times with her friends& boyfriends I'm sure along with my own Dad. In late 1950s kids like myself would swim in Detroit River on mainland across from the island while we heard non stop laughter of so many enjoying themselves. In the 1960s still young couples would travel as it...
