The location is awesome--so much character and detail everywhere you look. As someone in my early 60s, I especially loved reading all the material on the walls in the Saloon.

Super entertaining! Pros:…read more Interactive shows - kids were involved in a long and interesting bank robbery one. Horse and buggy ride (extra cost) - it was nice to sit up top and be carted around by a horse. Kids loved it. Train ride - lots of fun. Especially enjoyed the "hold up". Restaurants - believe it or not their food was good. They also serve alcohol which is nice for the parents. Haunted Jail - go inside and have them tell you the story. It's creepy and interesting (kids were freaked out...ha). Cons Some of the shows are long and can be longer than a kids attention span. Prices are high. Should have purchased them online prior although I found out after the fact. Make a day out of it! Enjoy!

Oak Ridge, NJ - calling all influencers! This place is hugely Instagrammable and super enchanting!…read moreLol. Mariah Carey even shot her Christmas music video here. But you don't have to care about snapping cute pics to appreciate that Fairy Tale Forest is an absolute wholesome delight for children and for adults to live their childhood nostalgia. There is a real magical forest feel as you wander through the park, which isn't large, but the life-size storybook cottages and fairy tale sets are beautifully detailed and lovingly restored. The grounds are clean and well-manicured (a sign says the gardens are curated by Raine Garden Designs). A list of daily events & activities are posted such as magic shows, live music, and character meet & greets. The staff and actors are all warm and friendly. My child loved running around and exploring, participating in the activities, but I enjoyed it just as much if not more. There are shaded picnic tables under umbrellas (next to the Bluebird Stage so you can catch a show while you eat). The food is from the on-site restaurant Fables, and is quite good, certainly better than your average amusement park fare (I was really happy to get a proper salad!). The restaurant is only open for private parties/events/rentals at the moment, but I'm told they hope to have it up and running at some point. The interior is also themed. There is a reasonably priced gift shop with a nice selection of toys, souvenirs, costumes, and gifts. I would say this park is suitable for younger kids, maybe up to 8 or even an unjaded 10yo (have your kids dress up as knights, wizards, princesses, and fairy tale characters!). It's also kind of a cool spot for a date. This is an "analog" park with some animatronics, and you shouldn't expect any dazzling razzmatazz or high-octane thrills. Six Flags it ain't. But come with the right mindset for the unique experience this is and you won't be disappointed. It's good ol' fashioned throwback family fun and brings back an era that doesn't exist anymore. Indeed, many NJ locals have fond memories of this park from when they were young. It was built in the 1950s by an industrious German dude and features scenes from Grimm's Fairytales that his mother used to read to the family, and was expanded with more set pieces over the next couple of decades. Unfortunately it closed down in 2003 and FINALLY reopened last year, after efforts were stalled during the pandemic. All I can say is goooo and visit this charming, singular, and uncorporatized attraction, and support a still founding family-owned local business. It's a complete joy!

I believe they added a bunch more activities like the scavenger hunt, story time, and the rainbow baton scarves so the previous reviews are from their opening year. Prices were very reasonable.

There were 13 of us of all different ages (toddlers to 70+) and everyone had an amazing time. My favorite thing about Dorney is the dual park. You have a pretty great water park on one side and an amusement park on the other. We started our day on waterslides, breaked for lunch at our cars, and then finished the day on rollercoasters. Solid day. A few tips to know before going: -you might want to bring along water shoes. Or at least be okay leaving your shoes in cubbys before you on any rides, and also be okay walking barefoot on potentially hot pavement. -there is NO SHADE. It feels like a massive oversight but there is not a bit of shade anywhere in this park. Bring a hat & sunglasses. -They let us bring water bottles into the park, but rumor was that it's one per person. Either way, hydrate a lot (all of the food kiosks were super nice about passing out free cups of water whenever we asked). -Parking is about $35 per car. -Couldn't tell ya a thing about food inside of the park because we've always been car lunch people. We all packed sandwiches, drinks, snacks, fruit and chips and had a little pic nic to recharge. Highly suggested. Just make sure to get a reentry ticket before you leave. This park had such a great kids section. My nephews had a blast on the very little kid rides as well as the older kid rides and we loved that we were able to jump on the rides with them. Truly a great day for all ages.

THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ EVERYTHING about this amusement park was excellent + Extremely walkable for kids of all ages and not overwhelmingly huge + Pirate's Cove water park was one of the biggest and nicest water park areas we'd been to at a kid's amusement park ++++ North America's largest wading pool is inside the water park ++++ Chill lazy river + large water slides in the water park + Thrill rides were very kid-friendly and most are appropriate for kids 3 and over. Some might be a bit too wild, but a majority were perfect ++++ Thrill rides were your typical spin around and around and around rides with a few mini-roller coasters mixed in + 4 food vendors (3 food truck rucks and Mama Santa's Pizza) that served hot dogs, chicken nuggets, burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, ice cream, sodas, lemonade, etc. Prices are very, very reasonable by 2025 standards + FREE parking!!!! + Can bring food and beverages inside and picnic at their many picnic tables + Can leave and re-enter the park whenever you please THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Admission is a bit pricey for everyone at about $37 per person (as of August 2025) RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Arrive at opening if you want to claim seats at Pirate's Cove.

My family and I had our first Land of Make Believe experience this past summer. My two kiddos (7…read moreand 9) met up with a friend of mine and her daughter (3) to explore the Land of Make Believe. We went on an actually "chilly" weekday in the summer. We went straight to the water park, and there was nobody around as it was a little cold. We did the lazy river, which was a lot of fun. There are lots of spray areas where you can get wet as you travel along the river. Pirates cove is really cute with the pirate ship and all the smaller slides for the smaller kiddos that go into the shallow water. I took my kids on the bigger water slides and we had a blast. All the slides were thrilling and we went on them multiple times. The staff at the water slides were so nice, very helpful, and patient as we learned how to sit in the tubes. It was a great way to start off LOMB. After we got our waterpark fix, we changed and went on all the rides. They are small amusement park rides, but both of my kids enjoyed them. They went on every ride (many of them twice). After awhile, my daughter was starting to feel a bit nauseous as they have a lot of spinning rides so she had to tap out. We rode the train around the park and the conductor gave us a little tour of the area. We also visited the Halloween house and Santa's barn. Let me tell you - the Santa barn surprised me as I didn't expect a real Santa to be inside. My kids loved visiting him multiple times. He gave them cookie cutters and he was very kind. (At first I thought he was an animatronic, haha). As stated by many previous posts, it is nice that you can bring your own food. We purchased food from one of the stands, and it actually wasn't that bad at all. And the price is right! We ended the day with some ice cream of course. We spent most of the day there. It was a lot of fun and we will definitely be back next summer.

The entry ticket purchased also gave access to bowling, bumper cars and several rides. Early arrival is suggested to avoid long lines.

We spent the majority of our time inside where we enjoyed ourselves the most. All in all we had a good time and would go back next summer.

It's a pretty good place if you manage your expectations…read more It's not some uber fancy theme park and it has a modest water park with some more older kids/adults themed stuff like a go kart track and bowling. The arcade is very big and there's a lot of options that would make little kids happy. It's a good place to bring younger kids to kill half a day in the arcades or other amenities, like for a morning and early afternoon run. Or just swing by for a couple of hours before lunch at the arcades and other little attractions there. I wouldn't say it's a more exciting way to spend the day than going to the attractions at American Dream or anything like that. But it's a great place for simple fun and enjoyment on a smaller scale if you don't feel like doing more than just keeping kids or teens occupied for a few hours.
