Carowinds is the BEST vacation spot in the southeast, aside from Florida's attractions, of course. There's a plethora of rides for everyone to enjoy, not everything is a rollercoaster, there's many food options, and this offers great entertainment and seasonal activities.

Rides: there are rides ranging from their carousel, the Yo Yo and Zephyr, the Boo Spook house, rip cord, teacups, water rapids, air balloons, the Ricochet, and of course, their famous rollercoasters. There's something for everyone to enjoy, and lots of choices.

Park sections: the park contains a pretty good number of stylized segments to experience, from the County Fair, Camp Snoopy, 70s Hollywood Theme(?), the Old West, and Carolina Harbor (their water park, and YES, Carowinds also has a water park).

Food: WONDERFUL FOOD CHOICES for an amusement park.
I experienced better choices than even at Disney World, which their food on the actual park grounds ranged from not so good to terrible (their actual restaurants are where you'd rather eat, such as Fulton's House and Planet Hollywood). Back to Carowinds, there's Panda Express, Chick Fil A, and onsite vendors. My personal fave is Harmony Hall, because of the quality. I've never eaten there and left ill. Burgers are awesome, pretty decent pizza, and love their turkey leg.

Activities: Carowinds has a great range of activities, from theater, live shows, an arcade, dog shows, firework shows, Lunch with the Peanuts cast, Beer shows, vendors and much more. They host Cirque de Soleil style shows every summer, from Cirque Imagine to Season of Cirque. And whatever you do, COME TO WINTERFEST, the best Christmas party in the Southeast, almost rivals Disney.

In conclusion, Carowinds is awesome, well worth your money. I advise you get the season pass, come as often as you can, and really have the best fun in the Carolinas!
