Not bad for being in the middle of town This amuzement park lacks the diversity and depth of Marine World and the notoriety of the Santa Cruz Boardwalk, but it's still not a bad place to take the kids once a year or so. The best part of it is that you don't have to drive forever, and for younger kids it can be pretty thrilling. PROS: Convenient and good for younger kids CONS: Not as fun as some of the other parks in the Bay Area

Amusement If you in CA, this is a place to go. It is a big place, you have rides and all kinds of games, and booths. The price is reasonable to get in. All kinds of shows to watch, and all sorts of food to eat.

a tough park to really recommend A difficult park to review. When Paramount owned the park, it at least got some love, albeit not very frequently since it was the red headed step child of the company's theme parks. With Cedar Fair, it has gotten less love as CF has had its share of financial problems over the past few years. The park is in desperate need of a major new attraction, and we are not talking about a silly flat ride (Survivor) a small water park, or a brand new show. It needs a major, earth shattering E-ticket (to... read more

My Favorite Place on Earth. Really. This park is so much fun now that they have a water park. I love that you can buy a season pass and enjoy the park for days on end for about 50 bucks. The water park insn't huge, but it is just enough to keep you entertained. PROS: Water park. CONS: New survivor ride.

A fun place for the family What can I say. I think we all know about theme parks but having one so close to home is excellent. Their season pass offering is great for kids in the summer time especially if the kids are older and you can drop them off for the day. The park is kept in nice condition.

fun, for dirst time goer's The first time I went there, it was fun, though it was mostly becuase it awas a new experience. Demon was cool and the other coasters were exciting. But the second time I went,everyythign just seemed lackluster compared to other amusement parks like sixflags. Parks without the heavy movie theme. But its a good place to take the family for some fun, I wouldn't recomend this as a park for its rides. It's more for hte over- all experience. If your looking for a thrill park, look else where for sure.

parks What a fun place you take your family here. There is some thing for every one to do from the big roller coasters to the water park. It is a lot of money but if you bye a pass and go a few times it pays for it self. Try it you will like it.

Great place to spend the day with you kids What can I say... I love Great America. Awesome rides, fun things to do. We especially live they're new water park. I can spend the whole day on the water half-pipe. I suggest getting the season pass... it's a good deal, and parking is included.

Family fun Great America is a great place for family fun. You can catch live shows, mingle with the park characters and enjoy the thrills of the many rides in the park. Boomerang Bay is my favorite area in the park.
