Maybe because it was raining out and more people were there to stay dry? As others have said, games are more expensive. We didn't have much cash on us so we had to be strategic about which games we played to make it last. The machines aren't very generous with tickets (although that could just be a testament to my arcade game skills). The prizes are pretty varied and some options are higher than expected (while others are lower), but they've got some good picks. I spotted a popper I wanted, but we didn't have enough tickets. The guy behind the counter told me I could have it anyway. Half Moon could definitely stand to do some upgrades, specifically to offer a card-based system so people don't have to rely on change.

There are few places in New England that hold onto their magic across generations, and Clark's…read moreBears is absolutely one of them. Returning after all these years -- this time with our grandchildren -- reminded me why this spot remains one of the most unique and joy‑filled experiences anywhere. The park is exceptionally well kept and spotlessly clean, with a staff that is wonderfully down‑to‑earth. It's remarkable how that warm, earthy spirit is felt throughout the entire property. Clark's offers far more than its legendary bear show. You'll find rides, climbing walls, multiple museums, and charming exhibits of yesteryear that celebrate the history of the White Mountains -- even a touch of old‑time circus heritage. And of course, the iconic steam train ride delivers its classic adventure as you face off against the famous Wolfman of the White Mountains. But the bears remain the heart of the experience. There is simply nothing else like it -- a rare, up‑close encounter that is both entertaining and deeply memorable for every generation. Even the food impressed us: reasonable prices, healthy sandwich options, vegetarian choices, and fresh hard ice cream served by some of the kindest young ladies you'll meet. It's a place where families are genuinely cared for. Clark's Bears is a generational treasure -- a place to bring your children, your grandchildren, and anyone who needs a joyful escape into a world of history, nature, and pure fun. Never to be missed. Can't wait to come back.

Fun for the whole family. Reasonably priced and very polite and helpful staff. 5!stars.read more

Came here yesterday with a 5, 9, 10 and 12 year old. I read the reviews after the fact and I'm glad…read moreI didn't because I might have been turned off to the experience. I don't know what everyone is complaining about - I thought it was great! The Roar-a-Saurus was a HUGE hit for the older kids, and I was glad they had it, as the 12 year old needed something a bit more thrilling. (Note: That ride was pretty intense!) The Polar Express and Bamboo Chute were big hits for everyone. Yes, sure, things are expensive - but what isn't? I've never been to an amusement park that doesn't try to money grab at every turn. $18 for a photo on a ride? That's crazy, but people paid it! And there's certainly no obligation to buy it. All the rides were open and we didn't have to wait very long. Granted, it was a Tuesday and thunderstorms were predicted for the afternoon (it only rained a bit). The water park area was fantastic and provided a nice change of pace. Others complained about the bathroom cleanliness and being outdated? No idea what they're talking about - we all thought they were adorable and clean. Perhaps we went in different ones. Get your tickets online to save a few bucks. If you're in the area with kids, it's a great way to spend a nice day! And, oh, one more thing about the TimeSaver thing that someone else complained about. Yeah, that was a bit disappointing, but it only happened a few times. Again, the lines were short enough where it didn't really matter.

Our family had a fantastic time at Storyland yesterday! Priceless memories and loads of fun! Our…read morethree grandchildren (twins age 9, and 14 year old) all immensely loved everything (except one was anxious about the roller coaster--so each of us adults took turns sitting out a turn with her. For me, the Polar steel coaster was too small and I didn't have enough leg room so knee hit the seat in front of me, then that padded bar punched me in the gut at the end. But the wooden coaster made up for that! I had much more leg room and the bar that holds you in was much bigger and didn't punch. Whew! I will say that overall the wooden coaster was more fun, though it does jerk you around more side-to-side. (I had really been looking forward to both coasters and the water rides!) The bamboo log type flume water ride was probably my favorite. I wasn't expecting that, but could have done it twice (and I'm 64)! The gentleman working the ride graciously helped me in/out of the "log" as it is moving the whole time and your feet get wet too, so it is tricky getting out. I thanked him a lot! I appreciated that Story Land provided free cubbies at each ride so we could stow eyewear and dry clothes etc. in totes/backpacks we brought along because no way would you take those on the rides. Many people brought a wagon with them and next time, we'll do that. I took a small canvas tote with a dry change of clothes, towel, and water shoes. I bought one drink and kept the cup to refill with water. I bought our whole family lunch and it was about what we spend at a full service restaurant ($150 for 7). All in we had an amazing day and I was exhausted by the end. All three granddaughters had a blast! And that's what counts. The beautiful memories.

RUDE staff for an almost abandoned hotel that can't afford to lose customers…read more I spent $1,000 to stay at the hotel with the waterpark passes. There were about 5 people total in the water park. I came to tell the kids to come back to room in 15 minutes. A young lifeguard confronted me and said I didn't have a wristband. As I was in my street clothes and about 10 feet from the door, I informed her that I wasn't swimming and just came to tell the kids something. I also told her that I did have a wristband in my room and I was not walking back. She decided to make this the hill she would die on and continued the tirade. She was very persuasive and convinced me never to go back here again. I will gladly spend my money at Great Wolf Lodge, which is 100 times better and the staff treats customers respectfully.

We have been using squirt guns for the past 13 years. It's a family tradition, and we have never had an issue. The Clark Bear employee then began taking pictures on his own personal cell phone of our children, 6 and 8, in their bathing suits. This is absolutely disturbing and disgusting !!!

We are DISNEY, Universal, Busch Gardens, Hersheypark so we don't really hit the midway carnival rides so I can't comment here folks but it look nice for those that like to ride. The food selection was AWESOME! Tacos, burritos, blooming onions, fried dough, soup in a bowl, you name it... they had it!!! 4H has a booth as well for more affordable options! Don't tell my doctors! A wonderful 4H petting station that was available for young and BIG kids and it wasn't CROWDED! Shopping was a little bit on the lacking side for a fair... didn't see the vendor with the $10 Patriots sweatshirts... which may or may not be a good thing!!! Plenty of sheep, cows, goats to look at and plenty of photo opportunities!!! ... a little light on horses, bunnies, and chickens... none really for sale (THANK GOODNESS). We did meet a nice gentleman at his horse trailer and he gave us an extensive overview of the Scottish draft horses. I guess they are endangered because horse meat is big in Europe? The big pro of this fair is that it is CROWDED but NOT MOBBED!!! Easy in and easy out... no sitting for hours in traffic just to park your car.
