The kids had a good time but keep in mind if under 13 adults need to go in too, so you are paying for 2 tickets for your kid to enjoy the fun. You get 90 minutes per session.

The inflatable house was terribly dirty on the surface and looked like it hadn't been wiped down all summer. I felt like I would get sick if I touched my face at all.

Nice views of the water along the boardwalk. A very cool old-school retro feel, like America and apple pie days of the past. The park's grounds are well maintained. As some mentioned there were rides which were not open but hopefully this summer all will be operational as it's a nice day trip to have some fun. It's a very family friendly place and good for the kiddies. Food is available but it's basically carnival eats - pizza, hot dogs, burgers, ice cream, fries, chicken fingers - which is as expected. You come here to enjoy not worry about your diet. Hopefully the new ownership who took it over will have everything up and running this season.

It's definitely an experience…read more Parking was easy breezy since there are plenty, and most likely because the amusement park was barely packed. Admission is free, and rides were free for my 23 month old son, he had just made the 36" mark to ride. We only brought one $15 adult ticket for rides since someone had to watch our new baby . Like most reviewers mentioned, there are quite a few rides that were closed, probably around 1/4 of the rides were not operating on a Saturday! Fortunately, there was minimal waiting for rides. 2-5 minutes max, or no wait at all! The rides are not in the best conditions. We spent most of our time at the kiddie section. I went on the submarine ride with my son and ride suddenly stopped at the top as it was half way through. The jolt (when the ride stopped) was so big that my back spine slammed into the seat. It was painful and quite scary for myself. I asked the operator about what had just happened on my way out, and he said it happens often!! Horror!! Your food options are extremely limited. Pizza ( cheese or pepperoni), chicken fingers, fries, hot dogs, burgers, ice cream, and pretzels. I may be missing a few! I was in shock to learn a bottle of purified water would cost $4.50, so pack your own water to stay hydrated!!

The day was fun. The food was decent but pricy. The ride selection is pretty good for the ages and…read morethere are several height charts prior to entering the park. I will say some of the rides for little kids require an adult or older taller child to ride along. There are a lot of bees so as a health tip for those who are allergic keep your EpiPen on your person if you stow your items. There are hills but ample seating is available if you need to rest. You are able to bring in a soft cooler and your own food if you'd like which is nice.

The ride was 1/6 of being thrown off into another ride and the shakes made me gag. Probably the only thing that was good was the water rides and thats it. Overall, The park is okay but the rides and drinks were horrible. Don't Recommend staying here

Ahhhhh , what to say about this place .. ??…read more I was really looking forward to my visit , but I must say I was a little disappointed. Parking is a bit ridiculous , takes forever because they make you wait in line until people park and gather their stuff out of the car etc . In order for you to park next to them . = VERY BAD PARKING SYSTEM . Lockers .. they have plenty of lockers but only 2 machines to buy them and the line takes forever . They have private cabanas , but I feel like they are private simply because you have shade , there's nothing so private and special about it , could use some extra care . They should also have a section reserved for ADULTS ONLY , because we were trying to relax in the lazy river and instead got mobbed by screaming children who are afraid of the water and to many people at once . I understand it's a public place , it's summer , however would it be a lot nicer if they could have an adult only part of the park . More appropriate for the people who want to relax . The water slides are awesome .

Rides, games, food. Fun. Fun. Fun. Two thumbs up!

Adventureland = a perfect summer day with my little one…read more We had the best time at Adventureland Long Island. It felt like a mini getaway full of laughs, snacks, and nonstop fun. The park has that nostalgic charm with bright colors, classic rides, and just the right amount of thrill. What I loved most was how easy everything felt, we just loaded up on Adventure Bucks and used them all over the park for food, games, and treats. We took breaks in the arcade, cooled off on a water ride, and ended the day with a churro and tons of happy photos. Adventureland is super clean, family-friendly, and just the right size to explore in one day without feeling rushed. It was one of those simple, joyful days I'll remember for a long time! Already planning our next visit before summer's over!

If you were to choose between Rocking Horse Ranch and Great Wolf Lodge, it's an easy choice. Yes,…read moreRocking Horse Ranch is more expensive but there is an endless amount of activities for the kids to do. We came on the coldest weekend of the year but my kids had a blast skiing, snow tubing, horseback riding, pony rides, arcade, game room, playing laser tag, swimming in the pool, the outdoor hot tub, and the nightly shows. Food is included in the price and it is buffet style for breakfast and lunch. Dinner is not but you are more than welcome to order more and take things to go. There's snacks available between lunch and dinner but there's also hot chocolate/coffee available all day long with some pastries. The only downside were the rooms. They are connected so if you have loud neighbors, you won't be getting good sleep. Overall, my kids loved the place and want to go back soon. I guess we'll have to wait for another Black Friday deal.

We stayed at Rocking Horse Ranch Tuesday through Thursday on a midweek deal and had a really…read moreenjoyable experience. I went with my wife and our two adult children (18 and 24). While they are a bit older than the resort's main target audience, it ended up being a great fit, especially since they had never been horseback riding and hadn't skied before. Everyone had a great time. We stayed in the main building in a room with two queen beds and bunk beds. The room was very clean, and the beds were comfortable with soft mattresses and pillows. Temperature-wise, it was funny, my son and I were warm, while my wife and daughter were cold, so I guess that means the room temperature was just right. One thing to note: the walls are thin. You can definitely hear noise from nearby rooms and above. Since this is a family-focused resort, that's kind of expected. It didn't bother us, but if you're looking for total quiet, this may not be the place. Since it was midweek, there were discounts, and they even offered us on our last night an extra night for and even more discounted rate. We were ready to head home, but I would absolutely consider staying longer next time. The resort is all-inclusive, and the food was solid overall. * Breakfast was your typical buffet--scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, French toast, etc. They will cook eggs to order if you ask. * Lunch was buffet-style as well and changed daily. Not amazing, but it got the job done. * Dinner was my favorite meal and felt a bit higher quality, with multiple courses and limited menu options (which I actually liked). * Dessert was fun, especially the ice cream machine. One thing I noticed is that the food is served at a kid-friendly temperature, which took a little getting used to. I'm guessing they do this so kids don't get burned. The activities were the highlight. Skiing was fantastic because it was almost empty, there were only a few other people on the hill. Since I hadn't skied since the early 90s, it was great to have the space to fall a few times without worrying about others. The staff was extremely helpful and encouraging. The hill is more like a bunny slope, but honestly, it's perfect for beginners. If you spent a few days learning here, you'd feel confident going to a bigger mountain. Horseback riding was also great, and since it was midweek, we could have gone multiple times a day. The indoor/outdoor heated pool was really nice, and there's even a waterslide. A lot of the resort seems better suited for summer, and some things were closed for winter, but we came mainly for skiing, so that didn't bother us. The staff deserves a lot of credit. Everyone was friendly and accommodating, and we never felt rushed. There's a saloon downstairs where they run games at night and offer a free drink of the night. Coffee, tea, and hot chocolate are always available. One small downside: when the dining areas close at night, soda machines aren't accessible, so you'd need to use vending machines (machines were coin only, so I couldn't use my Apple Pay), which felt a little odd for an all-inclusive resort. But, you can grab drinks to go while the dining room is open. On our last day, they let us do a late checkout since no one was checking into our room. We were able to grab lunch and head out without rushing, which was really appreciated. Definitely a lot more things I can talk about, but these were just the stand out things I remember. Overall: Rocking Horse Ranch is a great choice for families, beginners learning to ski, or anyone looking for a relaxed, all-inclusive getaway--especially midweek when it's quieter. It's not luxury, and it's definitely kid-focused, but it's fun, comfortable, and well-run. I'd absolutely go back.
