I grew up watching the Travel Channel and constantly seeing specials about Cedar Point, so finally…read moregoing for the first time at 33 honestly felt surreal. Last weekend was definitely one of those core memory trips I'll never forget. I'm part of an LGBTQ+ coaster group called Scream Queens and throughout the year we travel all over the country hitting different parks. Usually our trips are around 20 people, but this time? SIXTY gays descended onto Cedar Point like a very organized pride parade with hydration packs and Fast Lanes. We'd split into smaller groups during the day, but half the time there'd still be 30 of us migrating coaster to coaster together. Every time we made it to the correct station, we'd politely ask the ride ops if we could ride the same train, and every single time they did their best to accommodate us. The staff was genuinely so kind about it too, which we appreciated because coaster people know that kind of thing can absolutely throw off operations. Special shoutout to Alexis working both Wild Mouse and the Himalaya in the Boardwalk area. A few of us walked up in our Scream Queens shirts and completely unprovoked they got on the mic and said: "We want to give a big welcome to the ICONIC Scream Queens joining us today." The way a group of mostly 30 and 40 year old men collectively screamed like little kids... embarrassing but beautiful. The only slight downside was that since it's still early season, a few rides weren't operating like Sky Ride, the Ferris wheel, and Magnum XL-200. Since we were there Thursday through Saturday, having those open probably would've helped spread the crowds out a bit more. But honestly? It didn't take away from how amazing the trip was overall. Absolutely can't wait to go back. Also very curious to see how the park evolves now that it's under Six Flags Entertainment Corporation leadership. The coaster community will definitely be watching lol.

My family visited Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, and overall we had an absolutely fantastic time…read more Cedar Point is known as the "Roller Coaster Capital of the World," and after visiting, it's easy to see why. There are so many rides and attractions that it honestly feels impossible to experience everything in just one visit. The thrill rides are incredible. If you love roller coasters, this place is like paradise. From massive towering coasters that shoot you high into the sky to lightning-fast launches and huge drops, the excitement never stops. Some of the rides had our hearts racing before we even got on them just by watching them fly across the tracks. The feeling of climbing slowly to the top of those massive hills and then dropping down at incredible speeds is an adrenaline rush like no other. My kids and their friends absolutely loved the thrill of it all. One of the coolest parts about Cedar Point is just how many rides there are. Everywhere you look there's another roller coaster twisting through the air, another thrill ride spinning and flipping, or another attraction waiting to be explored. There's a great mix of rides too, so whether you like extreme coasters, classic rides, or more family-friendly attractions, there's something for everyone. The atmosphere throughout the park is really fun and energetic. You can hear people cheering, laughing, and screaming with excitement as the rides fly by overhead. Being right on Lake Erie also makes the setting really beautiful. There are some amazing views of the water while walking around the park, which adds to the whole experience. Now, I will say that Cedar Point can definitely be pricey. Tickets, food, and extras can add up pretty quickly when you're visiting with a group or family. The food itself was actually really good, but the food lines were extremely long at times. We definitely spent a good amount of time waiting in line just to grab something to eat. The ride lines were also pretty long, which is somewhat expected at such a popular amusement park. When you have some of the best roller coasters in the world, people are going to line up for them. Even though the wait times could be lengthy, the rides themselves were absolutely worth it once you finally got on. Despite the cost and the long lines, the experience overall was completely worth it. My family and my kids' friends had an absolute blast from the moment we walked into the park until the moment we left. There were so many laughs, so many screams from the roller coasters, and so many fun memories made throughout the day. Cedar Point truly is an iconic amusement park and a must-visit for anyone who loves thrill rides and roller coasters. It's exciting, energetic, and packed with attractions. Even with the long lines and higher prices, the fun and excitement make it a place our group will definitely remember and talk about for a long time.

We spent just one day in this park and that was enough. I brought my sons and a few of their…read morefriends for their Senior Trip to experience Cedar Point and we decided to break up our two park days with a day at Shores. The life guards were very attentive. We got the upgraded Deluxe Cabana and it turned out to be a great idea when an impromptu rainstorm rolled in. It included some really nice, embroidered towels as souvenirs. The food choices were sparse and exorbitantly expensive, just like inside Cedar Point, but getting the food pass at Shores would limit you mostly to pizza, Cuban sandwich, and a taco. Several of the slides were out of commission which is really the reason for the 3/5 score here.

Lost another star cause it's cashless....I bring cash on vacation so we don't overspend and so servers don't get their tips taxed. We were luckier than most people reading other reviews, all the rides were open. Also disappointed they didn't stay open longer on the 4th so you could enjoy fireworks from the wave pool. Would have been nice. Lost the 3rd star cause when they closed we were told it would be faster to walk all the way through Cedar point to get to the car. I asked how many shuttles they had and he said 7....I laughed and had to walk all the way to the car then come get the family.....that took about an hour.

Today's review we have Rougarou, Cedar Point's B&M Floorless Coaster. This B&M has a interesting…read morehistory since it started its life as a Stand-Up Coaster in 1996 (when it was known as Mantis), however in 2015, they gave it floorless trains and renamed it to Rougarou. And despite the upgrade, this coaster has a BAD reputation. But does it deserve it? Let's find out! So first we climb up the lift hill, and we get a good view of Cedar Point. And a GREAT view of Top Thrill 2's Spike (although this wasn't built when I was there so RIP). We then hit a turnaround and hit the first drop. And we get... AIRTIME! Not a lot, but enough to make our butts go out of the seat. Which, HEY! I'll take it!!! We then hit the standard B&M Vertical Loop, which is fun followed by a Dive Loop which is great due to how much speed we have. But then we hit the INCLINED LOOP! Now, B&M Inclined loops are super rare, which is a shame because they're awesome. I LOVE the Inclined Loop on Riddler's Revenge (Would've also probably loved the one on this when it was Mantis as well as Green Lantern at Great Adventure. Sad that ride got torn down), and I love this one too! Plus, this is the only B&M Floorless coaster to have one of these! Making this super cool! We then hit the mid-course brakes and sadly, this is where Rougarou falls apart, Rougarou kind of sucks from here on out. We then hit some twisty turns which don't do much, a corkscrew that bangs our heads a bit (not too badly thankfully) until we hit the brake run. While Rougarou is not the best B&M looper ever and isn't one of Cedar Point's best coasters, it's not a bad ride by any means. In fact, I consider it to be underrated and a fun ride. Like seriously, from the way my friend talked about this ride, he made it sound like it was as bad as a Vekoma SLC or Green Lantern. LIKE BRO, ARE YOU NUTS???? THIS THING CURBSTOMPS BOTH OF THEM!!! And yeah, after riding it with him, it's really not that bad! That first half is just so good and again, I LOVE INCLINED LOOPS! Plus this never usually has a line. So I recommend checking this out at Cedar Point. Final Score: 72/100 Opened as Mantis in 1996 Reopened as Rougarou in 2015 Built by: B&M Last Ridden: May 20th 2023

Gatekeeper is a coaster experience that is as much about the views as it is about the thrills…read more First, you climb the lift hill facing Lake Erie, allowing you to take in the views and the sea breeze. Then you dive down and go through an exciting and exhilarating course that includes a close call with the front entrance gate. That makes this coaster a must-ride while at Cedar Point. Just don't ride it in the morning because, since it is at the front of the park and visible from the front entry, everyone goes to Gatekeeper first. Wait until later in the day and the lines will be shorter.

There's eight activities to do here including a haunted house, escape room, XD dark ride, mini golf, roller skating, and a bounce house - you could definitely spend a few hours here. If you're going to do at least two of the activities, consider doing one of the passes rather than paying individually. Place is clean and fairly large. Staff is friendly, but seemed a little overwhelmed when 2+ groups were waiting in line. Plenty of parking available in their large lot.

Greg's Coaster Collection: Ride #9 - The Mine Ride Category:…read moreFamily Coaster | Rating: 3.5/5 | Best For: Families & Young Coaster Fans | Wait Time: (usually short lines) The Mine Ride is one of Cedar Point's classic family-friendly attractions -- it's a fun roller coaster that's definitely not about speed or scares, but it's perfect for kids and anyone looking to take it easy while still enjoying a coaster experience. The layout is cool, with some gentle twists and turns that give it personality without overwhelming younger riders. It's a nice change of pace from the big thrill rides and a great way to bring the whole family into the fun side of Cedar Point. Ride Stats: Moderate length and speed (official stats not listed) Best Seat: Anywhere, it's a smooth, comfortable ride Pro Tip: Perfect for a quick break or to introduce kids to coasters. Photo-Worthy? Not really, but it's charming in its own way. Personal Note: The Mine Ride is a solid choice when you want to slow down but still enjoy Cedar Point's coaster magic with family or little ones. It's all about fun and smiles, no thrills required.

Greg's Coaster Collection: Ride #2 - Maverick Category:…read moreThrill Coaster | Rating: 5/5 | Best For: Coaster Enthusiasts & Adventure Seekers | Wait Time: Maverick is hands down one of my favorite coasters at Cedar Point. It's got this wild, untamed wilderness vibe that perfectly fits its name. The first lift hill leads into a jaw-dropping 95-degree drop that instantly wakes you up, followed by crazy, whip-fast turns that keep your heart racing the entire ride. The sleek design, bold colors, and overall atmosphere make it feel like you're on a roller coaster adventure through the backcountry. One of my favorite moments is the unexpected launch underneath the station that shoots you toward the water section -- it's a rush like no other. Like Millennium Force, Maverick's iconic silhouette is visible from the road as you approach the park, a beacon of thrills calling you in. Ride Stats: 4,450 feet of track * 70 mph top speed * 95-degree drop * 2 minutes 30 seconds ride time Best Seat: Front row for pure speed, back row for maximum airtime Pro Tip: Avoid the midday crowds -- rope drop or the last ride of the night means way less waiting. Photo-Worthy? Absolutely, especially near the first drop and water section. Personal Note: This coaster quickly became my favorite at Cedar Point for its unique mix of wild design and intense thrills. Every ride feels like a new adventure, and that launch under the station still gets me every time.

Used to be my favorite ride before Steel Vengeance came out. Still a very close second!read more

Greg's Coaster Collection: Ride #7 - Corkscrew Category:…read moreClassic Coaster | Rating: 3.5/5 | Best For: Nostalgics & Moderate Thrill Seekers | Wait Time: (usually short lines) Corkscrew is one of Cedar Point's original thrill rides and a true classic with its iconic blue-and-white color scheme. It's fast, it's compact, and if you've eaten recently, you might regret the ride -- those inversions pack a punch! It's not the scariest coaster in the park by any means, but it's definitely not for the faint of heart either. Plus, there's something fun about walking underneath as the trains zip overhead -- classic Cedar Point vibe right there. It's a quick ride and definitely less popular than it was back in the day, but still worth a spin if you want a taste of coaster history. Ride Stats: 2,200 feet of track * 48 mph top speed * 85-foot drop * 1 minute 40 seconds ride time Best Seat: Front row for smoother inversions, back row for extra speed Pro Tip: Best for a quick thrill when lines are short. Photo-Worthy? Only if you like shots of blue and white blur! Personal Note: Corkscrew might not be my top pick, but it's a classic that every Cedar Point fan should experience -- a nice throwback to the park's early thrill days.

It's one of the park's most beloved attractions and a true fan favorite. Nothing beats the thrill of racing head-to-head against your friends on the dual red and blue tracks -- and the signature "Can I get a high five?" moment as you zip side-by-side is pure adrenaline and fun. Gemini's classic wooden coaster feel packs a punch with its speed and smoothness, proving that old-school designs still hold their own in a park filled with giants. This coaster has been a park staple forever, and honestly, I hope they never get rid of it. Ride Stats: 3,264 feet of track (each side) * 60 mph top speed * 70-foot drop * 2 minutes ride time Best Seat: Back seats for extra airtime and speed Pro Tip: Ride during parades or midday for shorter lines. Photo-Worthy? Yes, especially during the head-to-head races. Personal Note: Gemini is the perfect mix of nostalgia, competition, and fun. Nothing beats the rush of racing friends and trying to snag that high five mid-ride!

Greg's Coaster Collection: Ride #10 - Iron Dragon Category:…read moreSuspended Coaster | Rating: 4/5 | Best For: Families & Coaster Fans Looking for Fun | Wait Time: (usually short to moderate waits) Iron Dragon is one of Cedar Point's smoothest and best-designed suspended coasters. It's not a white-knuckle thrill ride, but that's exactly what makes it great -- it's fun, fluid, and has a unique layout that feels different from the traditional coaster. The swooping turns and suspended seats give you a nice, breezy ride that's easy to enjoy whether you're a coaster newbie or just want something a little more chill. It's a solid park staple that's likely to stay around for a long time, and I'm happy about that. Ride Stats: 2,200 feet of track * Moderate speeds and smooth turns Best Seat: Anywhere, but front seats give the best views Pro Tip: Ride at less busy times for a more relaxed experience. Photo-Worthy? Not super, but the track weaving through trees makes for some neat shots. Personal Note: Iron Dragon is a great way to take a breather and still get some coaster fun in. It's classic Cedar Point, and it's here to stay.
