This review is specifically for the Christmas Night of Lights. We went for the first time with our adult son and while I wasn't really expecting much, we all ended up impressed with the display that coney put on. The lights were gorgeous, the composition and choreography was great with everything truly synced to music (though the music is a bit of a drag if you don't care for modernized Christmas music) and the show seemed just long enough. It was very pleasant and priced just right. I bet kids would really love it and we adults very much enjoyed the show from the warmth and comfort of our car.
We visited the light show. Kinda pricey at $6 a person and then having to wait a little over 45 minutes just to get where it begins. I had to wake up one of my children once we got in. My other two were aggregated by the time we reached the beginning. Its a fun family Christmas activity, my 3 yr old absolutely loved it. But you should expect it to take a while to wait in the line and drive through it.
I went there for the Christmas light show and it was impressive. It got a little religious at times, that's not necessarily bad, it's a Christmas event after all. The lights are synced to the music which plays on a dedicated FM station. Very well orchestrated and definitely glitzier than other Christmas light displays.
The wait was fairly long, and once you get off the main road you still wind around the parking lot.
The pricing is also by person, not by the carload, so keep that in mind if you are taking a big group.
Went to see the Christmas lights and had an amazing time. The lights are unbelievable. The price was also much better than I had anticipated. It was only $6 per person. Went with a girl I really like and she was amazed also. It took 30 to 45 minutes to see everything and was well worth the time. I can't wait to see it next year.
We attended and super enjoyed the Christmas Nights of Lights. Spectacular lights show synchronized with great Christmas music that is played on your car radio. This is our second year to enjoy this holiday tradition. Hope to attend every year. It gets bigger and better. You won't regret it.
Only $6 per person !! So, pack your drinks and snacks and ride through the lights.
Very nice staff, the park is ok, and not full of thrill rides, but it is great for small kids, and the water park is easier to navigate with small kids than Kings Island. You can see the entire play area of the water park easily from a comfy seat. They have adults working, not as many kids as Kings Island.
I do think it is over priced for what they offer, but my husband's job gives us tickets every year because they are to cheap for Kings Island, so we go, and the kids always have a blast. I would stay on the lake on the paddle boats if I could.
Had a blast at the pool. Good atmosphere. Lifeguards are on-point! Can't wait to go back next summer! Unfortunately single-day ticket prices are a little outrageouseven if you go in the afternoon when the day is more than half-over.
A wonderful time warp of a place! Imnaculate everywhere, even in the brand-new bathhouses. Beautiful gardens and, paths along the river. We live nearby and go for an hour or two most every day. Easy in, easy out, and parking is a short walk. There's good, slightly overpriced food available on site, but this is a very picnic friendly environment.
Fun family park. Not a large thrill park. Perfect for a family with small younger child and older siblings (around 7-8 years old). We were with a group with kids ranging from 1.5 years to 7.5 years and were able to mix it up with rides easily a d everyone had something to do.
I really like this park- is is small and quaint- perfect for young children. It has enough activities and rides but is not overwhelming. My kids like the 'midway' style games too. Overall they have kept the historic charm of the park in its golden age and added some well- chosen contemporary attractions. It is also much less expensive and has shorter lines than Kings Island. It would be nice if they were able to have more ride operators so they would not have to rotate on the rides, but if this slight inconvenience keeps the prices reasonable, I think it might be worth it.
It was our first visit to Coney Island, we attended with Cincinnati Children's Liver transplant team. We were impressed by the pool, the staff and everything. We will recommend it to friends and will definitely return.
I love the changes they have made to update the bathrooms.I love being able to just relax on my float in the pool and the awesome kids play area.The water in the pool could be warmer because it is freezing cold but otherwise an awesome place to spend in the summer!
If you could control all employees and have them be friendly instead if a chip in there shoulders thus place would be amazing. If they can change employees attitude would recommend to everyone
It's okay. Water park is pretty nice, pool is amazing and some of the slides are great. The Typhoon Tower is awesome for kids. However that's where the greatness stops. The dry park is simply terrible. The rides are all very disappointing and poorly maintained. I realize the big money maker for them is the water park but they really need to put some work in on the dry park section. The food is simply not good unless you get pizza, or Skyline.
It's hard not to love Coney Island. The history and amount of fun you can have here are closely related. It's definitely the biggest pool in the region. Paddle boats are fun, too.
