Great all in one theme park! Ideal place for both kids and adults. I love that there are still remnants of the old Carowinds when it used to be owned by paramount. The water park is a nice place to stay for the whole day, especially once the two new slides open up. Carowinds also provides job opportunities for young teenagers starting at the age of 15! Most of the employees are relatively friendly except for the Wings restaurant. Everyone is grumpy there. But at least they give a good amount of fries. Wish I had more time to experience the WHOLE park! I went from 11-7 and only got through 3/4 of the park. (Note: rode The Intimidator twice within 20min)
