This year is my first time to come, and then opened the state of once a week, because really not enough play oh! Although it takes more than an hour to drive each time, it feels worth it, and there are not many summer vacation people during the week, and it opens at 11 o 'clock until 6 p.m. Height over 48 is recommended. If the height is less than 48, many exciting projects can not be played, but do not worry, there are many areas where children can also play. The disadvantage of the park is that there is no popcorn, if you like popcorn must go to the playground to buy and then go to the water park, change clothes is very convenient, be sure to bring bath towels, leave the water, the wind will be cold.

Well-done Great America! I felt safe; all areas were clean and well maintained. Plenty of lifeguards and good job on the social-distancing guidelines, etc. Great slides and lovely pools of cool refreshing water drops.

Hour and a half to get food. They ran out of ice for a while. Purchased large drink and after my food came they started looking for the cup and couldn't find it. Eventually somebody comes back and says we don't sell those anymore. Even though their sign says they do. Do you want a refund of the price difference? 5 minutes later I got my money back and had to repurchase the smaller size drinks. They no longer guarantee gold pass members entrance into the water park. They just put up a brand new ride, maxxforce and couldn't spend the extra few dollars to put covering up for people standing in line for an hour and 45 minutes, (all in the sun) and their sign says it's a 60 minute wait. Our family of four has been buying gold pass memberships since so long ago I can't remember. The food experience pushed me over the edge and I'm done with six flags. Customer service does not exist.

I live near by so I purchased a season pass and added on a tubal rental pass. For me it was worth it since I can go often on hot days. If you don't have the tube pass you'll be waiting a long time to float in the lazy river. If you go solo you can't go on some of the slides but there's still a lot you can do. The body slides are fun but a little bumpy where the cracks are.

So the rides are fine. The staff is usually not service minded and rude. I go often
