    The PNW's only Theme Park ​This is by far the best (and really the only) high-quality theme park in the Pacific Northwest; others truly pale in comparison. It's certainly not Disneyland by any stretch of the imagination, but it is unequivocally a fun place to visit. ​If you're familiar with Knott's Berry Farm, I would describe this park as a lighter, halfway version of that experience, notably without any dark rides. You can clearly tell they draw a lot of inspiration from Knott's theming and aesthetic. Despite its smaller scale, you can easily have a very fun two-to-three-day trip here, depending on your family's interests and pace. ​ ​The food situation is a definite trade-off: I think the quality is generally not great (with the glorious exception of the ice cream!), but it is ridiculously affordable by theme park standards, which is a massive win that almost makes up for the basic quality. ​A minor logistical hurdle is that the closest hotel is about ten miles away, which can present its own set of challenges, but for the overall experience and value, it was definitely worth the effort. Overall, this park is a standout regional destination that delivers serious fun without the insane price tag!

    We went as a group of 8 and it was great. My literal only trip had zero to do with the park and everything to do with the weather. We did almost every ride on the dry side with the exception of aftershock and tremors (both were closed) stunt Pilot was our favorite and we all went on jt at least 4 time. The weather was awful barely anyone in the park which for the dry side was great because we could run on and off and back on over and over with no wait. My son and my friends husband went on all the rides in the water park in less than an hour. Again no lines! I went on 1 but was so cold regretted that move and got back into dry clothes. All in all we had a great time and will for sure be back next year.

    This is my absolute most favorite place to travel to for Halloween fun! Silverwood turns into scary wood, I recommend it to every person possible. We drove 6 1/2 hours to come and weren't disappointed at all. The scares are real, and constant throughout the park, even with a ton of people. I recommend getting there at 4:30 to get into the park, parking at five, and waiting in line until doors open at seven. I have done this timeline a few years and have been the first ones at the gate each time. Make sure to map out where you're going to the most popular attraction, it will get busy fast! Food is great, all around fun time.

    Loved this place. Due to the weather some of rides were closed for safety. David DaVinci and family were amazing ( 30 mins. ) The Silverwood Central Railway was fun to see the park. ( 30 mins. ) Only downfall was the Antique Car ride. A taller guy was training a female employee and they were painfully slow. Way too much talking / training. This was the only blemish.

    Very fun ride! We had a blast for a family trip! The food was pretty good for fair like food! The ice cream and huckleberry milkshakes we all loved a fun place for kids and babies too and the water park was fun!

    This by far my favorite amusement park! And it's was my first time. This park was clean, staff was friendly and engaging. We had 100000% the best time here. It was my kids first amusement park (4&6) and my son's first roller coaster was here... probably not the best for 6 year olds. Whoops, but he laughs about it now. Both loooooved the rest of the park. We ate at the bbq place, great food. Dining area was clean, plentiful seating. We can't wait to return!

    Tremors roller coaster

    It was my first time ever in Idaho, and coming here was amazing! We spent 3 days total at Silverwood, 2 days on rides and 1 day at the waterpark. My personal favorite ride was Spin Cycle. It's high intensity, but not so much that you feel nauseous. Honestly, I loved all the rides and waterslides I went on. They are very thrilling. Aftershock goes upside down AND backwards, and Tremors goes underground! At the waterpark there is a bar in the middle of the lazy river! (One of the water slides has a huge 50 mph drop!) Food wise, I would definitely recommend eating at Lindy's, a vintage burger place. Get a huckleberry milkshake!! There are a few places around the park to get them. Can't wait to go back!!

    This is a shout out to the AMAZING staff of Scarywood. October 2023 was my daughters first time attending Scarywood with us. When she entered the park she suddenly became terrified ( this is after her begging us to go for weeks). Cast members from all over the park came by to talk to her and encourage her to stay. By the end of the night she was leaving the park waving goodbye to all her scary friends and telling them she would be back next year. The ammount of respect I have for the haunt actors grew tremendously that night. They created a new horror fan in my daughter. This year we took her again and she immediately walked in the park with confidence and excitement. She even recognized several of her " friends" from the previous year. The haunt actors are truly amazing with kids. Thank you for helping my kiddo truly appreciate the magic and fun of Scarywood.

    Came during Halloween season when they turn into Scarywood and had a blast! The decorations and fog they added to the place made it an excellent way to get in the mood of Halloween and the haunts were pretty fun. A lot of the makeup and decorations were surprisingly realistic and didn't feel gimmicky. There's a good mix of families and adults around having a good time. Most of the scarers did an excellent job - but two individuals really went into the territory of sexual harassment of a friend (following her when we were out of the haunt). Management needs to do a better job of screening/training to ensure that their scarers understand what is inappropriate to say - and what is fitting with the theme. Some of the rides are closed but most are open - and it's very fun riding a rollercoaster during the night with a spooky themed place looking below. We ordered a pizza while here and it was surprising good for amusement parks! There was a nice cheese pull and everything. I also really like that the place is cashless. There's a lot of signage around the roads pointing you how to enter - the google maps instructions have you going a slightly different route. We went by following the signs and that worked out well.

    Ask the Community - Silverwood Theme Park

    Is there enough for a 2 & 3 year old to do?

    Yes theres a whole ride section for smaller tots and the swim area has a little splash zone too.

    Can I go barefoot in the park everywhere? Thx

    Silverwood Theme Park requires shirts, shoes and appropriate dress, however Boulder Beach is barefoot approved for all the water park fun!

    Ppl from WA... Is wild waves better than silverwood? The comments have me highly concerned bc growing up I've heard so many exciting things but now I'm grown n care where I put my money... I don't wanna waste time or money.

    We don't have much experience with the theme park side of the two. However, hands down, Boulder Beach at Silverwood is a much better water park. Swim up bar for alcohol and regular beverages in the lazy river, better layout, more slides, 2 wave… 

    Are lockers available to store a change of clothes or backpack?

    Locker rentals are available at the following locations: Boulder Beach Lockers General Store on Main… 

    Do they sell beer?

    Yes and white claws!

    Are they open in April?

    Silverwood is open on weekends and select weekdays in the spring with opening weekend usually falling in early May. Daily operation is from early June through Labor Day. Boulder Beach water park is open, weather permitting, from June through Labor… 

    Do they have any military discounts?

    Unfortunately no, however, in the past two year during May 26-28 they've had all military, police, firefighters receive free admission.…

The bowling alley could use some maintenance because even a 300 bowler isn't that great here but whatever, there's other cool things here. We enjoyed the indoor putt putt golf. The arcade had a lot to offer for all ages. Didn't make it to the zip-line but the employees said it's worth trying out! Between the water slides, the wave pool and the indoor outdoor hot tub, we all had a blast! We will be returning for sure!

    Update: Vanessa from Triple Play finally contacted my wife today…read more What is frustrating is that her own message confirms exactly why this situation has been such a mess. She stated that their Sales Manager had a couple digits mixed up in Allison's phone number when he tried calling earlier in the week. That means Triple Play publicly claimed they attempted to reach out and had not received a response, while the real issue was that their own staff had the wrong number -- a phone number they had access to all along through the event planning process. So again, this was not simply "confusion between pass types." This was poor communication, poor follow-through, and poor handling of a group event involving children and families. First the arcade credit issue was not handled correctly at the event. Then the follow-up was mishandled. Then it was publicly framed as if we were not responding, when in reality they had mixed up the phone number. I do appreciate that Vanessa finally spoke with Allison and that they are now working on refunding the remaining arcade credit. That is what should have happened from the beginning. But the fact remains: our group spent over $2,000, the girls were let down in the moment, we had to pay the $225 ourselves to make it right for the kids, and the follow-up only happened after multiple public responses and updates. I am glad they are finally taking steps to correct part of it, but this entire situation still shows why I would strongly warn anyone planning a group event here to get every single detail in writing, verify every promise before arriving, and make sure you know exactly who is responsible if something goes wrong.

She was absolutely…read moreoutstanding--friendly, engaging, informative, and on top of safety while still keeping the energy fun and exciting. I didn't catch her name, but she wore glasses and seemed to be on the spectrum. That actually makes her performance even more impressive--she handled the crowd with confidence, warmth, and professionalism, and truly stood out. I really hope the team can identify her because she deserves recognition for a job exceptionally well done. The ride itself is such a unique attraction, and very reasonably priced for the experience. The gondola cabins felt sturdy, clean, and well-maintained, which made the ride comfortable and stress-free. Of course, the waterfall views are stunning, but what really surprised me was the wildlife. I spotted a yellow-bellied marmot--something I had never seen before! Someone on the ride mentioned those are native to the area, and coming from San Jose, I was honestly delighted and a little mind-blown to see such a unique animal in the wild. All around, an amazing experience with top-tier service, beautiful scenery, and even a few unexpected highlights. Highly recommend if you're in Spokane!

In my opinion, it's not really worth the price. While the views are nice, they aren't significantly better than what you can see by simply walking along the park paths. Just save yourself the $15 and enjoy a short walk down the park path.
