This is one that looks scary but is fast and fun and everyone can enjoy. From grandma to the kids. And the view from the top of the first curve gives you a slow few seconds to actually look around.

I guess this is the oldest rollercoaster in the park. Especially since the American Coaster…read moreEnthusiasts have given it a Coaster Landmark. Which is kind of like a historical landmark just for coasters. I know that makes it a draw, but for some reason I don't see it for this ride. You can tell that it is a ride that has been here for a while. It feels dated and I do not think that it was a smooth ride in the least. I came off of here feeling like I had gotten out of bed the wrong way in the morning. Yes, I am currently at that age. What is impressive is the two loops that appear to be interlocked. It's always fun to be zooming upside down. To have two of those, it made the ride not so bad, but not so great either. I do appreciate how they actually included water into the theme. It would have been a little dull if they didn't have it going at least near the water. For a good portion you are going up and down over the water. I mean, this is the Loch Ness Monster...at least it didn't ask me for $3.50...

When I say that, I say it lightly. I know it is just over twenty years old, but for the type of rollercoaster it is, it is kind of one of the firsts. I believe it is said that this is the first hyper rollercoaster built by the firm that built it. So, yeah, maybe old school isn't a bad way to describe it. The line moves swiftly, obviously not as fast as the coaster itself. The line winds a bit more than I expected. But once you get to the platform you get to feel the rush of the air. Once you are on the ride it feel like it is over in a flash. After the initial climb and pre-drop you are dropped down towards the water and tossed and jerked for the rest of the ride. Honestly, this ride is a bit badass. I mean, on the inaugural run Fabio did get hit in the face with a goose. How much more badass can you get?

The one thing that I remember about this coaster is that it is over as fast as you can think about…read moreit. I was wondering why the line was moving so fast, and once you get on the coaster you then understand. It is a launch coaster that pushes you out at high speed. But not before winding up. You'll go one way, then the other, and on the way back down you will be launched off onto the rest of the ride. You go fast, you invert, you twist and then you return. It is a simple coaster, with high thrill. Honestly you could ride this coaster all day with little to no wait. That is how fast the line goes. The only thing I didn't like, I felt like it was hidden. Or at least to me it was. It was hidden in plain sight to me. I had literally walked right by it on my way to what I thought was the next closest coaster.

Ok, this park is PERFECT. No, seriously. It has reached park perfection. There is the biggest (and…read moremost fun looking) playground that I've ever seen. There looks to be some sort of 'ship' for their imagination as well as several slides and merry go rounds and everything to keep the little ones busy. Going around this park, is a walking trail. It's not too long, its not too short. It's just right. You can leisurely stroll around the entire park, taking a break to watch the kiddies or...and this is the best part, watch the pooches. Among it's perfection, this park has three, VERY large dog parks. Two for the biggies (they need the room) and one GINORMOUS park for the Lil Napoleons (ever meet a small dog that didn't have a Napoleon complex?) This dog park is so big that after throwing the ball for 30 minutes, my very energetic poodle came up to me panting heavily & I swear I could hear "Uncle" as he dropped the ball & walked away. The grounds inside the dog parks are kept beautifully. There is a volunteer who faithfully cleans out the water bowls, picks up anything that parents left behind, supplies balls to all of the parks & for a bonus will even snuggle any pet needing a confidence boost. I am very hesitant in writing this review because if word spreads too far & fast, then everyone will want to come here & there will be a line. There are very friendly owners that come to this park, all different breeds. One day it will be all poodles, doodles, chichipoos, doxies...you just never know who you will meet!

The actual playground is clean and a decent size it has swings and a jungle gym complete with slides I walked the circle a few times and really enjoyed the atmosphere Beechlake Park is truly a hidden gem
