| - Carowinds will pleasantly surprise you! I had lived in Charlotte for almost 2 years before I experienced the park and I was pretty bummed it took me that long! The park itself is huuuuuge! I couldn't believe it, walking in I didn't think it was going to be impressive. But there is roller coaster after roller coaster. I don't even think I could name 5 of them, let alone all of them! There's a really cute area for kids, tons of dining options, carnival games which always suck you in, and much more! I love that Carowinds hosts so many events throughout the summer! Every weekend during the summer they have Beer, BBQ, and Bands (I think that's what it's called?) which is so much fun! There are extra vendors set up throughout the park with great food and booze. The park also has really great shows for everyone!
And how can you forget during the blazing hot summer the practically brand new water park, **with two wave pools**. This has become my favorite part of the park, especially during the summer months. You can go and relax by the pools of if you're up for it, try out the rides. There's something for everyone!
The prices in the park are a bit high, but that's pretty much expected. Otherwise, I always have a great time. Oh and if you plan on going multiple times, even just twice, the season pass is SO worth it. Going twice pays for it plus parking is free otherwise it's 20$ each time you go! AND a season pass holder can get into the park 30 min before everyone else and start riding rides. How does everyone not do this?!!!
