    Maverick and Steel Vengeance roller coasters
    Taylor S.

    Oh how do I love Steel Vengeance. Steel Vengeance is not for the beginner coaster rider or faint of heart, as the speed, the airtime, the forces, and the inversions will knock you around like a ragged doll, but because it is all smooth, I can't get enough of it. Congratulations RMC and Cedar Point, this is my new favorite coaster.

    Wow wee wow wow. The mean streak used to be a ride. One of the worst wooden roller coasters ever. Like don't get on it unless you wanna be in pain afterwards. I think it was one of the oldest wooden coasters???! Well they dismantled it back in like? 2017? And built a metal coaster throughout it. This was one of the most fun roller coasters ever. How smooth and badass It's become. As an employee called it, this is mean steaks older brother. Can't wait to go back and get on it again.

    Finally made it

    No need to rehash all the great aspects of this world class roller coaster that tops most enthusiasts' lists. You know that already. One positive aspect that nobody seems to mention is that the crowd waiting in the queue tends to be a very offbeat, interesting sort of crowd. I went on SteVe literally 10X during my visit, and each time I found stimulating people to chat with. You do not get that with every roller coaster. Now onto the disadvantages of this roller coaster that nobody seems to mention. 1) The restraints are heavy and uncomfortable. It is hard to push them down and back up. The restraints also have shin guards, which I find detracts from the ride. Enthusiasts will complain about the restraints Skyrush has, but I have found those to be much freer actually. 2) There is no grab bar. Almost all roller coasters have a grab bar, which attaches to the seat in front of you, and you can hold onto it during rough moments. Steel Vengeance has none. Everyone knows that there are so many wild moments on this ride, so it would be nice to have the option, even if you chose not to use it. It hurts your back when you can't hold on. Most people don't seem to mind, however. 3) The seats are designed in a way that you can bang you elbow. The seat's contour curves around you, and then there is a hard flat surface over your elbows . . . especially if you have your hands up because there is no grab bar. I hit my elbow a few times, and I would say that is a design flaw. But please don't get me wrong. SteVe is one of the very top roller coasters in the world. But I just felt the need to point out disadvantages of the coaster that others fail to see because they are so euphoric about it. It is not my personal favorite.

    Just a Vengeance of a coaster!

    The worlds longest tallest and fastest hyper hybrid coaster try saying that fast a few times and you'll be in a tongue twister just as much as you would be twisting with each amazing ride on Steel Vengeance! The first time I set eyes on this beast I was like wow this is a huge structure of epic proportions but it wasn't until I actually rode it that I was like this is totally an amazing ride time and time again! This is another RMC refurbishment of a wooden coaster gone steel to make it whole again as it's a great way to reuse the structure to make a whole new ride out of it with a whole different way to enjoy! The line can get super long as this is a very popular ride so I'd definitely recommend hitting it in the beginning of the day so you get a chance to ride it as you really don't wanna miss this coaster because it's incredible! Overall this is an amazing ride with a long track it's super fast and just kinda crazy with a Vengeance but needless to say this is one of my favorites on any given Cedar Point day!

    Wow. We had hopes of getting early access as we stayed at Breakers on-property, but a mechanical issue kept it closed until noon. So, we had a 2 hour + wait in line. But it was well worth it! Again, wow! This is unlike any roller coaster I've ridden. A true non-stop thrill. I think I spent more time above my seat than in it. Thankfully, the leg braces and lap restraint really kept me secure. Being slightly taller than average (6'2"), I felt compelled to duck during some of the tight spirals inside the complicated wooden infrastructure.... although it wasn't really necessary-- it was my visceral reaction to do so! Inversions! Air time! And... fast. This was an awesome experience. Don't let a long wait dissuade you from this. Wow.

    The best roller coaster at cedar point! I never imagined I could enjoy a roller coaster that wasn't ridiculously tall. I don't even know where to begin... this roller coaster has a lot of "twisting, turning and RICOCHETING." The air time is the most I've ever experienced on a roller coaster. The twirls and turns are INSANE! You feel like you're falling out of your seat the entire time (but you feel safe because of the harnesses) and it's a super long ride. My favorite roller coaster of all time. If you go to cedar point I would implore you to try to get to this roller coaster AS SOON AS IT OPENS! The lines are insane all day so try your best to ride it as soon as the park opens. BEST. ROLLER COASTER. EVER. P.S. I've been on it at least 30 times.

My son and grandchildren have season passes, and we were lucky enough to use a guest pass. They also have the dining plan and unlimited drinks, which you can get every 15 minutes--definitely a nice perk on a day at the park! The grandkids had a blast exploring the rides in Camp Snoopy and Planet Snoopy. Since it was the first day of school in Sandusky, the park was only slightly busy, which made the day even better. We were able to enjoy the park without dealing with huge crowds and long waits. We stopped for lunch at A Place, which has a variety of food options. I went with the chicken tenders and chose waffle fries as my side. The chicken tenders were delicious! But my favorite memory of the day had to be riding the Churchill Downs Racing Horses--the carousel that spins incredibly fast! It was a lot of fun and definitely one of those rides that makes you feel like a kid again. Overall, it was a fantastic day at Cedar Point. The rides, the food, and especially spending time with my son and grandchildren made it a day I won't forget. Sometimes the best part of an amusement park isn't the rides--it's the memories you make with the people you love

So, if you either live close by or you have purchases a season pass for the year, this is a great place to come and cool off for the summer. I could see living nearby and buying a pass every year if I had small kids or a group of friends to hang out with, especially when the season pass is $99. Then coming here even twice would pay for itself. Since for the first time ever, we have a season pass, I would like to come back and relax at least one more time. But, if you are just coming here for the day without a season pass, it is not worth it at all. Everything is very old and not well taken care of. Everything is also covered in bird poop, and I literally mean everything. You could have thought they would have cleaned up for opening day, but nope! And you would have thought the rain would have gotten the poop off of literally every surface, but nope. This is a tiny place for the money compared to other waterparks that ask for similar entry fees. The prices for the food is high and when you ask the workers questions they do not even know the answers. I asked where the changing room was to get in and out of bathing suits, they did not know. Plus the lockers are not even near the changing rooms at all. Not very convenient to a point where a worker agreed it was not set up in a customer friendly manner. A lot of the rides were breaking or not open. The lazy river was slimy and very dirty. The entire place was a bit dirty, and again, it was opening day. f Plus there were a million bugs. I think I ate 15 just trying to climb up a slide with my poop covered tube. Then I flipped at the bottom of a slide and went under, and the lifeguard just watched me. I have been to many other places nearby. If you have the money, I would recommend just going to Kalahari if you want a waterpark. I liked Great Wolf and even Castaway Bay better. If you have a lot of money, I would recommend Volcano Bay or the Disney World Orlando waterparks over this one.

People put towels on prime spots and don't come back for hours, if ever. It's very frustrating for people with kids who actually use the seats the entire time. Using the family restrooms is another hour wait. Since the merger with Six Flags, Cedar Point and Cedar Point Shores have sadly gone downhill in many ways. The food is also more expensive and lower quality. It's unfortunate because we loved coming here several times a summer. We'll have to find a new place to enjoy.

Photo-Worthy? Not really, but it's charming in its own way.

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.
