SYLVAN BEACH AMUSEMENT PARK REVIEWS

So fun and cheap for an amusement park. rides are very fun! the beach is nice and there is a restaurant there that I definitely recommend. I did a ghost tour one night there which was really fun too. nothing haunted happened but after doing the tour I watched the show ghost hunters and they did an investigation there which was cool. the time we happened to be at sylvan beach there was a fireworks show and they were the most impressive fireworks I’ve ever seen.

This was my first time going, and I had a blast! The beach was quiet, the food was delicious, the amusement park was awesome, and the staff were all super friendly! Would definitely recommend, and would definitely go again.

This is such a nice area of NY State. I spent a few days in the area and took part in a ghost hunt - super fun! At night, the rides sure seemed spooky. There are a few cool restaurants too, I'll be back again, for sure.

WONDERWORKS REVIEWS

This place was awesome. The exhibits were all fun/engaging and the flow of people seemed to allow us ample time in each section. The ropes course was my favorite, though I regretted wearing muck boots, my 5 year old could do it but my wife could not once she got up there so maybe keep that in mind if you're an anxious-mom type.

This was an amazing place for our family to enjoy together and separately.

Truly a memorable experience. You just have to try it out for yourselves.

ENCHANTED FOREST WATER SAFARI REVIEWS

Oh this water park is wonderful! Plenty of activities for the family! I loved the lazy river! My kids and wife loved the slides! The food inside the park are pretty good as well! I got the garlic fries and my family got the family combo - chicken and fries - and some cherry ICEES. We were full half way through our meal! It's fair priced and the mean size is pretty good as well! The park also has plenty of parking, an arcade, changing rooms, and a fairy tale facade area. This was our first time visiting this summer and we're looking forward to next summer. Might be buying a membership too.

This place is adorable. We went with my kids ask to go back all the time. They're 9, 6 and 4 and they all had a great time. My youngest especially loved the little fairytale statues, she wanted to go back 4 times to take pics with them all. Also the rides being included was so nice. We're planning another trip for this summer to bring my sister and her kids along.

We came last year and loved it so much we decided to return this year. This place is truly amazing. The park is so easy to navigate and there is so much to do for kids and adults included. The staff is wonderful and work so hard to keep it nice and clean. Can't wait to come next year.
