    Everyone should golf here. Great place especially in the winter to keep up your skills. Great prices too.

    Coming here was something special for me as Leap The Dips would be my 400th coaster credit and I…read morewanted it to be a special one so why not make it the worlds oldest wooden roller coaster! This park was chill as it reminded me of like a city park that has rides, mini golf, and go karts as well as two wooden coasters! My visit happened to be on opening day of the 2022 season and I must say it was a good time as the park was kinda dead making for me to get multiple rides on Leap The Dips which was totally what's good! This park is really chill as it's like wide open with lots of picnic tables and places to hangout which I thought was kinda cool. While this might not be the biggest park around it still serves it's purpose for it's community making for an amazing time no matter how old or young you are. Their associates here were all very nice and friendly as I talked to alot of them and it was definitely enjoyable seeing how they care about the park. Overall this was a good time and an awesome time riding this old school woodie I'm not sure when I'll get back here again but I can definitely say that it was worth the trip to ride this legendary wooden roller coaster!

    My husband and I hadn't been here in a few years, and since we (and my cousin and her husband) were…read moregoing to a Curve game, we decided to check this place out. Wow! What a downgrade! Lakemont Park used to have a seemingly random assemblage of portable rides which were still fun to ride. The whole atmosphere was that of a carnival-meets-dive-bar (the good kind of dive bar). But now the rides are no more, the coasters are still standing but not operating, and all that remains basically are batting cages and mini golf. Well as long as we were there, we figured we'd try the batting cages (I hit quite a few of line drives). But in short, there's no there anymore. And it was strange to see the two coasters standing there silent. Leap-the-Dips is the oldest coaster in North America and the only side-friction coaster. It's my second-favorite after Kennywood's Phantoms Revenge and half the fun of riding it was wondering whether this old, over-grown pile of Tinkertoys would collapse as you were riding it. By the way, it is a National Historic Landmark and the operator of Lakemont must keep it standing and in operable condition. But the money's not there. As for the Skyliner it's a fun vintage wooden coaster. It gave you a great view of the adjacent ballpark, and vice versa. The train had an "Altoona Curve" sign on its side, which was plainly visible from the ballpark.

    Definitely fun for little kiddos I would say. My 3 year old son absolutely loved riding what he…read morecould and the black light putt putt!

    There is something disconcerting about video games that rely on swipe cards to operate them. I miss…read morethe feeling of pumping quarters into coin boxes. Call me old. But that satisfying clunk was always part of the video game experience. It also was helpful for understanding just how much a video game cost to play. Back in the old days, most games were a quarter. The super deluxe games were fifty cents. I remember the first time a game broke the dollar barrier. But if you have a preloaded card that cost $10 with 50 points, and one game requires 6.4 points to operate, how much does that game cost to play? And what if there are some games that cost fewer than four points, and other that need more that twelve? These kinds of swipe systems make it easy for people, especially kids, to burn through a lot of money in very little time. Thankfully, Tilt does have some all-you-can-eat pricing schemes. But these aren't always easy to figure out, especially for first time visitors. Nor is it clear just how valuable these deals might be to the newcomer who may be unaware that a ten dollar investment of fun, might last fewer than ten minutes. Let the buyer beware. That said, there are some truly cool games which are in very good condition, and which I haven't seen elsewhere. The place is clean, and there are many options for fun beyond simply video games--although the glow golf course is small, and bowling consists of just two lanes of candle pin bowling. Staff are pleasant and patient, especially with younger kids trying to redeem their precious few points at the redemption counter. It's hard to say if we'll return. The kids prefer the experience of tokens at the other game room nearby, where we've been going for years. They also prefer how the machines at the other place spit out wave after wave of physical redemption tickets when they do particularly well in a game of skill. Still, I think that the older kids might have a different take on Tilt if we were to get them an all-you-can-play pass at some point in the future. But on this first visit, even the kid in grade school couldn't believe how much money each game cost to play, especially in this era of high tech video games. But all that changes if you can score four hours of attractions and games for $20. Hopefully they will have a similar deal next time we're in town.
