Knoebel's Amusement Resort Review

Prices were reasonable clean family oriented safe could not ask for better!

My absolute favorite amusement park in PA! This place is so nostalgic and the roller coasters are some of the best in the country, particularly the Twister, Phoenix, and Flying Turns. I love how you can walk in without paying an admission price and the food is excellent! Dick Knoebel is one of the best amusement park owners in the country and I hope this place never changes. Kids today need to experience what parks were like back in the 1960s and 70s and understand how much times have changed in the amusement industry. I would recommend this place to anyone!

My children enjoy coming here to spend the day. We are close enough that we can visit multiple times per summer. The park is constantly evolving. Free parking and free admission.

What I like about this park is that there is plenty of shade and food options, even bring your own. Free admission and parking, decent selection of rides at all levels of intensity. What I wish I knew before I went was it would have been cheaper to pay by tickets instead of all day pass. Being a holiday it was busy but did not feel stressful.

It's best because it's free. Free to park and walk the park. Think of a never ending carnival with much much more, incredible classic rides, modern ones and even the Black Diamond Coal ride with amazing regional flair! My favorite besides the classic ride through haunted house which is one of the rare few left in this country. That alone is worth 500 miles of travel.

One of the better theme parks. Its simple, yet fun. Lots of rides, and plenty of food.

Nostalgic place, great food, fun, free parking, free park admissions, bring the whole family, including the dog.

This is one of the best family parks and the United States. Let me start off by saying the people there are so friendly It will make your head spin. The food is top quality. Fresh tasty and very inexpensive for amusement park. You will be very surprised. The rides are excellent. They have a pool that's Filled by a mountain Spring. You must go there you really should go there you will have the time of your life. This is one of my brothers In my family's favorite park

Best family park east of the Mississippi, animal friendly too

It's was fun most of important I seen family members I haven't seen in a while

Best place ever, favorite ride skloosh....go there every year from south Carolina.

Good amusement park for all ages. They also host parties/events large and small. Food selection is great, I recommend the fried pickles. Great for a day trip.

One of the best amusement parks to go! It may not have the high coasters or things like that, but there rides are still fun! They also have the most rides that children can ride!!! No fee for entry into the park, you just buy tickets books and the rides cost so much e.g. 1.25. Or you can buy all day ride bracelets. I go here every summer with my kids for the past 3 years! Will not disappoint!

Been camping there for 11 years. Can't wait to go bck

A great day for the family!
I love that there's no admission charge, and you only pay for the rides you want to go on or the games you want to play. Everything is reasonably priced, and there's no shortage of stuff to do! There's literally something for EVERYBODY. And the history behind it just makes it that much better!

Free parking free admission only pay if ride nice park

This place is amazing! They have rides that accommodate for larger patrons, and the games are reasonably priced. The food tastes great and is affordable as well.

Free to get in only pay for rides and food a great place to go

Best amusement park around to enjoy a picnic with the family and watching the kids explore the park and rides. Knoebels has something for every age, ranging from puppet shows for little ones and all the way up to exhilarating thrill rides for the older ones. For those smoldering hot and sticky days you could go swimming and splash down the water slides. In addition, there is also a little sprinkle water park for the younger children. And people that want to extend their experience and enjoyment can take advantage of knoebels campgrounds to have more time to venture the park throughout their stay.

Good, old-fashioned fun at affordable prices. Have always had a blast at Knoebel's. Always will. First came here as a kid. Now, I'm bringing my kids.

Love it fantastic no entry fee and fun time with family

Words... Just can not explain how amazing this place is you can ride 2 rides that are the only one left parking and admission in free and you can bring food and drinks in I wish I could give this place more than five stars but it's impossible

Having a handicapped friend the park was extremely accommodating. It made for a very nice day.

Great Park! Good eats. Had a big turkey leg to eat. Was really good.

Beautiful amazing place. Dont cost an arm and a leg to go there. Food is excellent!!

Great place, Fun for all ages, literally. Impulse is fun, priced right in tickets, but Flying Turns is expensive for not a lot of time on the ride, plus a LONG wait time.

5/5 recommend

Fantastic old fashioned amusement park!! pay as you go rides...with no admission fee..
Lots of delicious cheap eats..
Great family fun for all ages !!!

Always love coming here. Great rides for the kids. Free admission, free parking. The pool and water slides are worth the extra cost on hit sunny days

Great park in the hills of Pennsylvania. Clean friendly, no park admission. Camp Grounds were awesome.

I love that me and everyone I know has grown up going to knoebles and now they take their own kids to knoebels. It IS the best amusement park that ever existed!

This is a nice place to go because it is really cheap to go if you are trying to find a fun place to go.

Great place nice staff, lots of "Regular Show" people go here so makes it fun to people watch while waiting in lines...

The best park ever. Family, pet and everyone friendly. Camp, visit, we wish we could live here

Great place to visit. Free to get in, and ride what you want to ride. It's a little far from Baltimore but it was worth the drive!

I have being going here for so long with my family and we always have a good time. The rides and food are amazing. I recommend this place to anybody.

We absolutely love Knoebels. There is something for everyone here!

Free parking! Awesome food! You can pick and choose your rides, not forced into an expensive bracelet or day pass. Very family friendly, but still offers lots to do for "big kids" (adults).

Love!! We go every year and it never gets old! Free parking, free admission, great family fun!

Always a great place to visit in the fall! Great fun for the whole family!

great family-friendly amusement park, especially for people who don't want to go on the big and scary coasters but be prepared to go in a lot of circles. I'm one who gets dizzy fairly easily and many of these rides made me sick.

Good ok family fun and place to have a great time with my kids

Can't wait for the park to open it is the best!! Been going since in my mama's belly and now I get to enjoy it with my kids! I'm so grateful that I live so close to such wonderful entertainment and food!

We love going on Wednesdays and Fridays for Bargain Night. A great family park with reasonable prices.

We always have a great time...1 of the best parks around..not many left like this where everyone has to pay to walk in the park..if you have kids you would understand...the kids ride and adults watch..getting a wrist band for my son was the best option...my son did hurt his finger on a machine..we ask security for first aid..we walked us right to first aid not just gave directions.. unfortunately we had to go to the er ..the first aid people are awesome...the even had security take us to our car....it was just a freak accident wrong place for his finger at the wrong time....5 star

It's really fun and it has a nice atmosphere. There are lots of rides for young kids along with crazy roller coasters. There are also lots of places to buy food and snacks, and it's all so cheap. I go here every summer, it's great.

Great place for the family!!! Kid friendly rides!!! Food is affordable. No cover to walk in. Pay as you go. Hidden gem of pa!!!

Great place to take the family and not have to shell out big bucks. Lots of fun, great rides, and the food (which is reasonably priced) is always great.

Great family atmosphere. Takes me back to my childhood.

Such a great place. It has a lot of history and the kids love the rides and pool. The prices are very reasonable. It's very unique and not corporate. Run by very kind people. Lots of good memories to be made here.

Knoebels is a truly great place to visit for any number of reasons. Knoebels offers free parking and, as such, grants visitors the opportunity to walk around the premises and enjoy the area at no charge. Camping is available. The park features a number of quality rides both old and new. It features a classic wooden coaster, The Pheonix.

I've been going here since I was a kid. I love it! Tix needed to ride....which is nice. People who cant ride the rides dont have to pay.

Campgrounds are amazing and such a great experience. The park is fun as well

Love this amusement park! I bring my niece every summer and meet up here with my sister and niece every fall for their covered bridge festival and Hallo-fun weekends. To see them transform the park for Halloween is a great time and we always have fun and enjoy ourselves here.

Free to get in expensive food and drink tho.. Delicious meal at the diner.. Kids had a blast can't wait to go back..

The staff is very friendly. The park was really clean. The rides are great. Lines moved pretty fast.

This place is family and pet friendly. Free parking and rides are cheap!! Definitely a place to take your family!!

Amazing time fun for the whole family and very inexpensive

Cute amusement park. Lots of shade. Can bring your own food and drink or purchase at stands

One of my favorite places to take a day trip or camping trip! Unique amusement park surrounded by trees and one of the few that doesnt charge admission, just buy a day pass or book of tickets for rides!

I love this place. True happiness. The prices are very fair, for the rides and the food. The staff is always friendly, the lines are never long. Always a great time!

Big park,clean, have a kiddie section,great rides food and entertainment. Will definitely go back

Been going here since I was a kid. Free parking. Free entry. Buy tickets for the rides. Good food

Excellent amusement park. Won't crush your wallet since parking and admission are free. Concession prices are reasonable and you only pay for the rides you go on. Didn't use all your ride tickets? No problem, they're good at future visits. Variety of rides to satisfy all age groups.

I honestly didn't see a single thing that I disliked.

Knoebels is an adventure waiting for the family looking for fun fun and more fun!!! Free admission makes it even more attractive. We often have evening dinner in the cozy atmosphere of the Alamo dinner, and watch as the cute Band performs an entertaining act outside of a comfortable setting which has a wait because of the food being great? There is so much to do, well don't take my word..Experience the thrill yourself!

This was such a fun place to visit. There are campgrounds within walking distance. We stayed for a weekend, rode on rides as we felt like it and walked around the rest of the time looking at all the fascinating little shops and trying out food places.
Loved it so much, we are going back again in April. A very nice place for families.

Fun for everyone and free to get in perfect for ride lovers and non ride lovers

A great family destination for food and fun on rides for the young and old alike, Free parking and admition to the park. There is swimming, camping and picnic areas.

We where 1st time visitors to Knoebels! Excellent park that was very clean, plenty of shade and areas to relax. The park was very crowded this Saturday. Lots of children and adults enjoying the park. As you can see in the pictures lots of park guests cooling off!

A neat place to spend the day! Not to pricey either!

Hands down best amusement park and you cant beat the fact that it's free parking and free admission! We take our family multiple times a year.

It's so wonderfully old fashioned. But at the same time some awesome new rides. Excellent, Real food. And everyone is very kind. Great job Knoebels.

Free entry to the park, free parking, and pay per ride is cheap.... 80 dollar in tickets gets me thru the park from open to close, and tickets to bring home for next trip, cuz they don't expire!!!

I enjoy the atmosphere and just a place to get away and always enjoy eating my favorite food which would be funnel cake

This park is an amazing place to spend the day with your family. Great rides and hardly any wait time to ride them. Kevin M. on the Whipper ride was exceptionally good at his job. All day long he was up beat and fun with all the kids on this ride. It was nice to see someone enjoy his job so much.
