How can you beat free parking, free admission and the ability to walk around an old tyme amusement park with no restrictions! Top that off with some of the best food that can be found in any park and one of the top wooden roller coasters in the world, the Phoenix and you have a great reminder of how it... More

This is the place for everyone in the family. If you do not want spent a dime. You can take a picnic. This is a gem of a park and one that you do not want to miss. The rides, food, games, and entertainment are some of the best anywhere.

It is so nice that non-riders do not have to pay to get in. The park has many shaded benches to sit and people-watch. Rides for all ages. The food is also very reasonable plus the park allows you to bring your own if you like. A great place for family fun!

Knoebel's amusement park is truly a gem... It is a family-friendly amusement park that actually goes easy on your wallet, and offers a fun experience for people of all ages. Unlike big-name amusement parks, you do not need to pay for admission or for parking. On some days they offer wrist-bands/handstamps to allow riders unlimited access to the rides (separate... More

Start with free parking, free admission then discover an excellent selection of rides and foods and games. Two of the best rollercoasters in the world. Just a perfect place, and you will return to do it again.

Inexpensive, clean, and rides for every age group. Tons of shady trees. when you start to get hot just go stand on the walking bridge next to the water ride and you get drenched with water! Then you are nice and cool for the rest of the day. Best part was free parking and hardly if any lines! Next time... More
