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

Great America I first went to Great America when I was in High School, and now I go there with my family. I really like the rides like Top Gun, Invertigo and Drop Zone. There is a very nice kid area with a lot of Spongebob kind of stuff. I don't like that they put a waterpark in there, but I guess some people do. My favorite ride is Delirium. PROS: Fun Rides CONS: Kind of dirty and marked with graffiti

A Sad Story I've visited this park over the last 4 years, and it's very obvious to me they're not doing much to keep it up and running. I hear they're in financial trouble. I understand they've wanted to build new "E-Ticket" rides in the park, but the city commission has voted them down every time, because the surrounding large corporations say the noise and screaming would distract their employees from their work (as if the current screaming doesn't do that already). They took out two great rides - "Stealth" (to put in Boom... read more

Loved Nick area If your kids love Nick and Nick Jr. then this is the place. The water areas are great and seemed to keep the kids happy for some time. Food is so so and over priced and during the week it's crowded during the summer. And lots of trash all over the place

great america We love the new water park. It is a great place to spend the day. I love the lazy river. The lines at the park can be very long but the kids always have a great time. I suggest buying a season pass.

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.

Fun ! Fun ! Fun! I went there when I didn't have my son and I enjoyed every second I was there. Last year, I took my son and wow ! we had the most amazing time. They don't just have those boring carousels when it comes to kids rides. They even have a mini roller coaster for your little ones :) and a whole lot of other fun kids rides. I am looking forward to go there again this summer.
