We love Frontier City. It is a ton of fun. Just make sure you don't go when there is a chance of rain. None of the rides were really open and we didn't get to do much because they closed early. However, they did give us complimentary passes to come back.

Frontier City is very expensive on their drinks and food, it is best to go during spring not summer because it is sooo HOT. The lines are long and not worth the wait. It isn't the best amusement park I've been to but is the only one in Oklahoma that I know of. It's really not as much fun as... More

Rides are fun when they are working. Water rides smell of rotten fish. The water needs treatment much more often than what they do. In fact, I dont let the kids go on the water rides because of this. Entertainment of gun shows, dance and songs are fun for everyone. Bathrooms are clean. They do have lockers, but now you... More

This is a very small scale amusement park. Our visits there have always been fun, but not excellent. Many times, rides or events or shows were not working or going on, and that has been a consistent disappointment on our visits. Overall, it's a nice little park, but very pricey. My biggest complaint is the parking charge! It is outrageous!... More

A piece of yesteryear coupled with gun fights, good shows and fun rides. There is a new water ride that is supposed to be really fun coming in 2012. A good way to spend a summer evening and cool off with the kids, and Oh! Get wet too.
