Knoebel's Amusement Resort Reviews

Don't go holiday weekends bc you will wait in line a long time. Great place to go with kids/family!

Best amusement park ever. Phoenix is the number one wooden coaster in the world according to the golden ticket!

I love this place. Sometimes me and my girlfriend go just to put money into the wizard of Oz thing in the arcade. Sometimes we get food and take a ride or two. Our goal is to one day have like a billion tickets and buy one of the really cool from the arcade ticket redemption counter. Maybe by the time we're like 80.

Knoebels is the best amusement park, free parking, great food, great prices, no admission fee for their park.

The best amusement park around. However last week I was there and there was a homeless man taking a dump on the sidewalk next to the Phoenix so I left

This is our favorite park by far! We've been here a handful of times and always enjoy ourselves! They are strict on the mask wearing though!

Nice place to take your family free parking free admission little pricey on food and drink ride prices are steep but can understand why

We had a great time! Wednesday crowds are small so lines are short. Prices haven't gone up much and the addition of card scanning is very welcome. Several rides were closed, but the important ones like the Phoenix and Flying Turns were going strong!

Great old fashioned park...reminds me of the country fairs we went to as kids. Staff is very helpful. I got separated from my family when I misunderstood the meeting place and my husband had my phone so I couldn't call him. A staff member, Dawn, offered me her phone to call! Very appreciative!

Most affordable park I've been to, several rides for the smaller children.

Great family place, we also camped and the only thing I didn't like was that my mother is legally handicapped and her legs swell n get blisters due to a medical condition, anways she wanted to come for breakfast in the park and could not More

Knoebels is set in a beautiful location, the rides are great, the staff is friendly, the food is delicious. Knoebels is a family favorite.

Always a blast to go too. Love the woodland feel and free entry. Food is great and rides are good.

My mother was kicked off a ride for a prosthetic leg. The ride would not cause any issues with her prosthtetic attachment. With that being said, I understand safety requirements. However, the rides staff could've been a lot more professional with the issue than what they were. It was an embarrassment to my mother and the rest of the family. Have been attending this park for the last 20 some years, this is sadly my last.

Everything is ridiculously expensive they charge you $3 for what should be $0.50 worth of soda.

Abusulity best park ever I wish the park would open earlier very clean workers are very nice lines aren't so bad thank you for having such a nice park

One of our favorite places to visit. Free parking, free admission, good food and fun rides.

Great park for families, clean, budget friendly and something for everyone.

Fun for large family something for every one no matter what age and affordable

I love this place. Just the right size and perfect for non ride goers. My kiddos loved it.

Love this place. Have a great time every time we go there.

We go every year. Our family favorite amusement park. Best Carousel in the country.

Very nice people, good food, and a lot of nostalgia. Great for Family fun.

There were so many amazing rides and stalls to stop at. There were gift shops to buy shirts, hats, stuffed animals, etc. The rides were also so age friendly, as in there were rides for all ages and sizes. If you're not a fan of roller coasters, but you still want to go on rides, Knoebels is for you!

We have gone well out of our way in numerous years to visit this NICE place from northern VA. I love old school rides and pay as you go pricing. I don't do super thrill rides and like that here you don't pay for others that do. The food is far more bang for buck(and unbelievable variety) than other parks. It's awesome in so many ways only wish it were closer. One day we'll camp there.

Minor gripe: restrooms. No they're not dirty at all they're just from 50 yrs ago. And water saving faucets require repeated touches as you are trying to clean your hands.

Fun, food, and family! Love this place. Nice shade trees, plenty of benches, and friendly staff.

It's a great family friendly amusement park. I've been here three times and always have a great time. The food is affordable too!

Very fun, I've gone there since I was little. Weekends can get very busy so weekdays are better. During the week you can buy a ride all day passes or tickets, weekends are only tickets.

Love it !!! Love the old rides and the whole setting of the park.

The best park in the USA. Great food, low prices, park like setting and great rides. Plenty of photos and reviews on like. Visit nearby Shamokin PA or world famous Centralia Mine Fire Area (both near) for an historical Coal Country experience as well.

I went with family on 8/15. It's a lot of walking to get from one ride to the next, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes.

The employees I had encountered were really nice. The Deaf man that attended the Twister, Scott, was very welcoming to me (a novice signer) and asked me a lot about how I was enjoying different roller coasters throughout the park.

The cashiers at Guest Services when the park opened were very nice and asked questions about where I was from and the amusement park that I work at while I got my band.

Two of the women working the Skloooosh ride near the end of the night (around 9:00-9:15 I'd guess) were super funny and helpful. That ride doesn't take pictures, and we were disappointed, so they offered to take a picture when we were seated before we were dispatched. It's the best picture from the day!

The photo stations for the rides that take pictures could use some attention. I asked at multiple stations for a USB and was told at Impulse that they don't carry them anymore because no one ever bought them. I was told at the Flume photo station that their system is older and cannot use the USBs, but the woman there got me set up with a memory card to take to another station. The Flying Turns photo station was closed all day and the other stations said that they could not pull pictures from other rides, which was disappointing especially because the camera on the ride was on and it flashed. It was the first ride we rode and the first reactions are always the best, so I'm upset that I missed out on those pictures as souvenirs. It would be a much better experience if all of the systems were updated equally and connected to be able to pull pictures from rides whose stations are closed that day. You'd get happy customers and more money spent on souvenirs.

The haunted mansion was disappointing for not being included with the bands. It doesn't last very long, there's so much to look at that you'll miss a scare if you're looking the wrong way, and there aren't any live actors. It's a decent ride, but not worth $2.50 extra. The Black Diamond is about at the same level and is included in the bands, so next time I'll just opt for Black Diamond and skip the Haunted Mansion.

The staff were just absolutely wonderful. Even when the Haunted Mansion and the photo stations were lacking, I still walked away smiling because of the happy attitudes and helpfulness of the park staff. Kudos to them!

Such a pleasant and fun park! So fortunate to have this here in our area!

I have always loved this park. It's a park for all ages

Knoebels is a hidden gem lurking behind the mountains of Pennsylvania, the food is surprisingly great, the rides are wonderful and unique, and the atmosphere of the park is consistantly great. This place is great for anyone in the family and I will deffenitly come back soon.

Fun times are always at knoebels. Barely any wait times and it was a Sunday. Can't wait to go back!

Free to get in Fun place everything was reasonable priced... prices get cheaper as the day goes on for the wristbands but they exclude certain rollercoasters ..food was great and park is pet friendly kept the kids busy all day they had a great time they also have a golf course and campgrounds available!!!

We happened to stumble on this place today about two hours before closing. Love, love, love the vibe! Great family adventure with something for everyone!!!! Free to get in and park, pay to ride all day or pay for individual rides. Only wished we would have found it sooner in the day or knew about it so we could have planned a longer visit!

Knoebels is great if you do not want the biggest highest fastest roller coaster. Rarely do you run into a ride with a line lasting more than 5 minutes. Love that! People watching is the best here. Free adm to the park. Free music and shows. Great food at a reasonable price. Campground makes it a great experience. Few sites have water or sewer so it can be tough for RVers. Campground bus is a life saver. Wonderful charm to the amusement park. Dog friendly. Better than Disney!

Excellent for adults and children. Best part is you just pay for the rides you want.

So much fun to be had here at Knobles!!!
Rides for all ages, and if your kid"baby" can walk they can pretty much get on anything in the kiddie land.

Still great rides, great food, and the best bang for your buck. Free parking, tickets or handstamp for the rides. Can't beat it.

So fun... One of my favorite campgrounds. The lines can be kinda crazy sometimes but they're worth the wait.

This is a true hidden Gem!!! I enjoy how they do not nickel and dime you for things! Free parking, Free admission is unheard of with any other park!! Great rides!

Knoebels has been our families favorite vacation destination for 4 generations. My wife's grandfather used to come here as a kid and my kids love this place. If you have the time to spend here grab a campsite and enjoy the full experience. Free admission and Free parking make this family friendly park a great experience for any budget

Best Amusement Park ever. Coming here for over 40 years. Love the Kettle Popcorn. Free parking and free admission. Lots of shade to stay cool and plenty of food options.

Best Family Park Ever!! free admission, free parking, reasonable food prices and variety of meals, snacks, ice cream, and many goodies to choose from or bring your own picnic, rides are awesome! Sometimes just like to walk around & enjoy the fun atmosphere, love the mining museum & watching the pair of eagles on display, so much to do and see here, is busy but plenty of room for all. This is a favorite summer "go-to" for locals and travelers and is a great happy place! thank you!

Camping, amusement park, and swimming all in the same park! You can't beat it. Is not too expensive.

Great place go camping and have a great time with your family at the waterpark

It's a great place to take your family for a weekend outing. The best part there isn't an admission fee. So unless you ride the rides or play games you pay absolutely nothing. The tickets aren't that expensive either. Their biggest commodity is their wooden coaster. It's old and big and it's worthy of any thrill seeker. I have been going here my whole life and I still love going. If that doesn't say anything. I don't know what else I could tell you.

Such a family friendly park can't say enough food things about knoebels. Great food, affordable, friendly. Pretty much everything modern parks are not.

always a great experience. good food, pricing, and workers. very happy environment!!

One of the best amusement park. Lots to see and do for the entire family.

I always love going here. When I come home i make it a point to go here. Free admission for my parents while I go on all the rides. Awesome variety of food. This park never gets old.

It a woodsey amusement park. Nice thing is you don't have to pay to get in.

We love this patriotic family oriented park. Awesome military program.

My daughter, grandson and I had a wonderful day at the park. Everything was so accessible and clean. Loved the fact that the adults could share the ride tickets to accompany my grandson when needed. Prices were very reasonable too, didnt have to pay just to enter the park! Looking forward to this spring, planning to bring all my grandchildren!

Not many people and lines were short and staff were friendly

Love this place. Great location with plenty of trees to shade you as you walk around. Very flat, no hills to climb. The rides, there is something there to please all ages. The food is good with reasonable prices. And with free parking, free tram ride in and out of the parking lot and free admission. Being a senior citizen, if we wanted, we could go there to just walk, eat and enjoy the park. What's not to love!

We liked going there with our family, sad we won't be there this year not with this mask nonsense.

So much fun, love all the rides and games. Love how it is free to get in for non riders or people that maybe only ride a few things like the train or merry go round

Great place to spend the day with friends and family without breaking the bank. Enjoy going just to get out for a day and people watch.

I have been coming here since I was a small child, so there is definitely a nostalgic feel to this park. I felt very safe here during the pandemic. They were on top of cleaning and making sure everyone was wearing their masks properly and social distancing. We haven't been to amusement parks this summer, but I'm glad we chose to go to Knoebels. The only downside was that the Old Mill didn't open until 14:00.

This is the best place for families! Affordable and fun.

Our new favorite park in the area. It's Pennsatucky Disneyland. A terribly reasonably priced amusement park that is huge. No parking fees. All the food sold on site is cheap and reasonable. Sooo many rides, especially for toddlers. And the best part: no entrance fees...All rides are ticket based. So family can come and only spend money on the rides you go on. And the tickets are refreshingly labeled by value (ex $1.75/ride); no complex formula to figure out the value of the tickets and rides.

Excellent pizza but otherwise limited menu. Nice patio setting but very hot at times in the summer. Great place to have a drink and light meal.

Always enjoyed coming here as a child, and now I enjoy taking my own children every year.

This place is INCREDIBLE and really fun for ALL ages. It's free to get in but you have to buy tickets to go on ride. But it's very inexpensive

Knoebels is one of the best family parks in America. It is mostly shady which is great when it's hot out, and it is in the mountains so the whole place is beautiful. There are not a ton of grown up rides but they have lots of kid friendly rides. The food is excellent all over the park too.

Great place to have fun and not break the bank. Nice motorcycle parking also..

It was fun the rain messed it up we also had to run a distance from the car it's bad if your car if far away and its starts raining like crazy but it was fun

Easy, free parking. Family friendly atmosphere. Great food at decent prices
