The amusement area is a microcosm of the past, a la Seaside Heights NJ, but on a much smaller scale... I don't know what it costs to buy a ticket to ride (never had the interest), but it's "quaint", for sure, at least to look at. The beach itself is exceptional, though, as far as freshwater goes. When the wind... More

You can tell the owners spend $0 on this place. It is so outdated, just a paint job would do wonders. Rides look unsafe and are overpriced! Don't waste your time or money. Go for drive and visit Six Flags, Darien Lake instead. More

This is a cute amuzement park, but needs some updating. It is open limited times, and you pay by the ride (or coupon book). It is a nice place for small children, as they have a nice area with little rides and it is not very crowded. More

We go a few times every year in the last four or five years we have noticed some renewed effort being put forth in the form of a couple of additional adult friendly rides a lot of new arcade equipment and lots of fresh paint. It also appeared to be cleaner than before. a couple of years ago they brought... More

Each summer this place comes alive for the season and it is always worth the trip, it's like taking a trip down memory lane! More

This attraction has been around since I was a kid ( 59 years ) and it has changed very little. Needs some new rides ( they added a couple in the last 10 years) but it is a depressing place. More

It's dated and not kept up very well. It's supposed to bring back a feeling for the '40s and '50s, but it just isn't worth the drive. More

This area needs a facelife. It is the same basically as it was 50 years ago. Sometimes that is a good thing, in this case it is not. More
