So, we bought the hype and visited because of Fury325. The ride was fine, but there doesn't seem to be much else new (for a lot of years) at the park. It still feels like a throwback to the 70s and 80s. That can be nice, and we heard the park is doing big investments, but it also feels like it's building a brand on one coaster. The parking lot needs repaving, some rides need repainting, and a senior Cedar Fair employee should walk the park without an ID badge to see what the real guest experience is like.
The food was fine, the people are mostly helpful (except for a few people who already seem to be tired of working there). They let you leave by way of just one turnstile so departing was really crowded even at the end of the day when the enter turnstiles are mostly closed. We went with a friend who wanted to upgrade a season pass and somehow the park was only giving her partial credit for the money she already paid. I guess the lesson is you better pay for the pass you want the first time you buy a pass.
Overall, an okay place, but Cedar Point has this place beat by miles.
