    Great, old fashioned, amusement park

    Great for the younger kids, our favorite amusement park and we cannot wait to see the updated water area. This park is more old fashioned and doesn't get as crowded as most of the parks near Pittsburgh, definitely worth the trip.

    Best to go on their site to see pricing. We always get annual pass so I don't know exact prices plus it varies with height and if u are doing all day or just evening.
