Good time had by all!
We had a GREAT day at Knoebels. But we didn't like the fact that many rides and eateries were not open due to staff shortage. Understandable. However, there were kiddie rides that were open with a closed one right next door that the operator could have moved back and forth between the rides. The day we went, Sept 1, was not that crowded so it was doable. Also the kiddie show that involved volunteers from the audience, required the volunteers to put on costumes ...some with head pieces. NOT a good idea with all the germs that could be passed! Cute show tho and the volunteers were great! Again, no complaints about the day except that many rides were not open and we still had to pay full price. Maybe next time they can state there will be closures on the website, or when purchasing tickets so we can decide if we want to pay full price for less rides. This is a nice kid friendly park with LOTS to do! On a side note, my son in law lost his phone on the big wooden roller coaster. We knew it was there...somewhere....just couldn't find it under the big coaster. When we arrived home he turned his GPS phone finder on, called the phone the next morning, a worker heard it ringing, answered it and they are returning it! We appreciate that! and THANK YOU to all the friendly workers for helping to make this a great day! We will go back again next year.

Great FAMILY Amusement Park
Great Family Park with many great old time features; no fee parking and no entrance fee are the 2 most notable. Foodservice for an amusement park is astounding with great variety and quality!! What other park would offer a baked potato with various toppings? Quality is found in hand dipped ice cream (not frozen custard that melts in 3 minutes) and milkshakes made with fresh dipped ice cream. On the negative side (thus only 4 rather than 5 star rating) I will mention that 2022 marks the second consecutive year where our favorite ride, Flying Turns, has been closed! We were told this year that it was due to a 'labor' shortage. With that labor shortage (excuse) in mind I thought it interesting that in both days we were in the park I never saw a game of chance closed and in most cases these were staffed by 2 people!!!!!
