Cedar Point Description

Famous for its roller coasters, Cedar Point has been an Ohio attraction since the late 1800s. But don't expect old-fashioned amusements; the park has kept pace with the times and offers world-class rides. Be sure to check out the Top Thrill Dragster, a 120-mph roller coaster that shoots up 420 feet and twists back down in 17 seconds. You'll find traditional favorites, too, like merry-go-rounds (three!), the Scrambler, and Sky Ride gondolas that cross from one side of the park to the other. Cedar Point also has water parks, fairway-style games, and live entertainment.

  • Water Park

  • Amusement Park

Kid Tips

Toddlers & Pre-K: The park has several areas designed for younger kids, including a preschool-sized roller coaster in Snoopy's Campground.

Planning Notes

  • Bring your own food. Sure, you'll want to splurge on a gigantic elephant ear (deep-fried dough sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon), but you'll eat healthier and more cheaply if you pack your own food.
  • Look for the "Thrill Factor." The numbers posted at each ride's entrance will help you figure out who should ride it.
  • Go early to avoid lines. The park fills up as the day goes on.
  • Map out your day. You probably won't be able to see everything in one day so plan your route first thing to hit your don't-miss attractions.

Reviews of Cedar Point

a timeless joyful place to visit

By kwaichang September 23, 2008

What we loved:
size, price and clean

What we didn't love:
location to drive to

Cedar Point was a bright memory from childhood. It was nice to see it's survived the years and still is going strong. The general admission is still reasonable and they still keep the place fairly clean and uncluttered.
I just don't like driving all the way there as now it costs as much as a sale flight to Orlando. :( Oh well, I'll manage.Read More

What we loved:
Everything!

Great for kids once they get to around 7 years old and can start going on the waters slides and roller coasters. Even adults love this park. The rides are the best anywhere.Read More
