i will NEVER go there again. half the rides were closed, most of them the most popular. they had children running the place. stood in line for 30 minutes to get a coke and it wasn't even crowded! NEVER! read more

Went for the first time today. I thought the ticket prices were very reasonable. Park was clean, although bathrooms not so much. Food prices were very reasonable, and food was very good. Only 2 areas open that sold food, waited an hour to get food. Some rides were closed, most of the games were closed, paddle boats closed. The biggest issue we had, was like cutting and spot saving. says clearly in the rules it's not permitted, but it happened a lot, not just a person or 2, it was 6 or more and even a lady yelled in the boat ride that 7 people were with her, worker didn't say a word. we did say something on the cannonball, as did a few others, they were told to go to the back of the line, a few minutes later they were right back up ahead and got in before us. Ither than that, we'll be back, a lot, suck a fun day read more

Ms. Vickie in the kid section!! She's the best!! there is a staffing crisis in America, we are finally going to have to learn to wait, but NOT on Ms. Vickie! She had five kiddie rides up and going by herself (I tell you!) and not one single eye roll or frown. In fact, Ms. Vickie, dare I say it, ENJOYED HER JOB!! I love lake Winnie and have gone since I was a babe but this experience was so much more special because my nephew and all the other kiddies received five-star care from this wonderful lady. Idk if y'all read these but I'm calling ASAP to brag on her too! There are not enough Ms. Vickie's in the world that's for sure! Also, I will follow up with a review that is less about Ms. Vickie and more about the rides and total experience (which she made amazing, if I haven't made that clear enough.) Pics to follow :) read more

Lake Winnie (or Lake Winnepesaukah) is an "old school" amusement park dating back to 1925. This isn't Disney or even Dollywood. But, it has a certain charm and novelty to it. This park is like stepping back in time to experience an amusement park in its original form. For kids 7-12, it's great fun because they can do most of the rides and they don't mind that it's less polished than the bigger parks. Here's what I like: 1) They have a lot of cardinal type rides --really good ones. Tilt a whirls, scrambler, tea cups that swirl in the air, pirate boat, antique cars, etc. It's all here. Also, they have some "real" bumper cars - ones that really bump with force. Just awesome! 2) It's less crowded: In my experience, Lake Winnie has almost no lines. You can walk onto most rides or wait like 5 minutes. So, your day will be spent on actual rides. Not waiting. 3) They have an amazing playground. Yes, a playground. It has an array of slides and a mini obstacle course. Trust me - your kids will really enjoy it. 4) Some rides are just comical or unusual. Their one inside "ride" is called Wacky Factory. It's like a 1960s hodge podge. It's a little lame and dated. But, it's actually kind of startling too because of unexpected noises and sights. Another ride, the Boat Chute, is equally unusual. It consists of a boat ride down a dark metal tunnel (no music, no light -- just silence). Then, a drop down a chute into water. It's definitely peculiar. But, maybe it's for good reason. The Boat Chute is the oldest mill chute water ride in the United States - opened in 1926! It may have been cutting age 90 years ago. 5) The water park is pretty nice and was built in 2013. We have been there once and it isn't very crowded. I think it would be a good choice for kids trying their first water park. 6) You can bring your own food and have a picnic in their covered eating areas (including a special "cake house"). Again, this may be a throwback to another era when people viewed amusement parks as a picnic-type of outing. The negatives: 1) Lake Winnie is old and dated. If you want modern amusement park experiences, you won't like it and probably be bored. 2) Some rides need a little TLC and refurbishment. But, with that said, everything seemed to be safe and working well. 3) The food looked like fried, unhealthy amusement park food. 4) The cost is similar to fancier and newer places like Dollywood or Six Flags. Overall: I really enjoyed Lake Winnie with my young kids. We also have been to Dollywood and Disney. But, the kids still like (and ask for) Lake Winnie. It's fun rides and relaxed atmosphere are great. So, I highly recommend them for a day of fun. read more

Labor Day weekend and we had a great time, it wasn't over crowded, the funnel cakes were good. The park does show its age, and needs some sprucing up. My family has been there many times over the years, it's always been a mostly positive experience. read more

Half the rides were closed bit still charged $45 each. The drink machines were all sold out. Kids soaking are, the water was off. You can carry a wagon, drinks, just about anything into the water park except a small cooler. Makes no sence. Lines to concessions are long & slow. You can't carry food from the ride side to the water park side. Makes no sense. Stupid rules. Today was our last trip here. Too many other options besides this poorly managed run down place. read more

Unsafe, underpays their employees. Wouldn't recommend for a multitude of reasons. Many other options

The park it self is fine but their a joke at the concession stands. All of the stands were out of different drinks and when you try to fill up your souvenir cups they don't have what you want and then say they have to charge for ice in a cup you've already paid for . When you ask for a manager they tell you they are all in a meeting and will not come speak with you only give you an option to come to the customer service window. We spent all day in that park and spent over $350 at the park including admission and food. Maybe have the manager meeting when the park is closed that way you can serve customers who have issues . Ice should be free when you aren't providing a cup and water stations should be all over the park on days where the heat index is well over 100 read more

Hunter is amazing, all the workers there are nice and helpful if you need anything. 10/10 would recommend

The lazy river is GREAT! Love the wave pool effect throughout the river (although not fond of the fact that it doesn't stay on. We went around probably 10 times and the waves were only on one trip around), we just wish it would stay on all the time. As for the amusement park, we were VERY disappointed. Half of the park was closed (we still paid full price) and the park looked very run down. Very big abandoned, haunted vibes throughout the park. However, the staff was incredible!!! However... for $37 a person and $7 to rent a locker, the staff deserves a raise!! They were so helpful and friendly!! To be quite honest, the staff was the best part of the trip. read more

Been here several times over the past 5 years. Seems like it's going down hill, which is a shame. I'm guessing they were closed some time for COVID? Could have used that time to freshen up the place. This Memorial Day weekend was not packed with guests which was my fear but it was void of employees, which was probably worse. Word from the staff was a bunch of employees played hooky saying screw work, cuz of the holiday weekend. That caused a lot of rides,games, food places, etc. not to be open. They sure charged full price knowing they couldn't serve their guests properly though. If hey charged half price, I would be more understanding. I guess they said screw it we don't care, we going to squeeze every nickel out of these people for a half way experience . I'm not a cheapskate, I just felt cheated and kids were disappointed that we could not do everything. read more

We had a good time. I think there were only 2 rides not open. All the employees running the rides were super nice and made sure every single person was fastened in correctly before even starting the ride unlike the last time I went several years ago. So a big difference! They even let us ride again if there weren't any people in line. I only wish they had shady areas with fans located away from the hot pavement like behind the scrambler or bumper cars where people can go sit and cool off because it's way too hot to even sit in the shade on benches on the pavement. And put up more cooling misters. I only seen one this time. They also allowed wagons to carry your stuff in. I seen a few people with small coolers that you carry like a purse or the small box type with a shoulder strap. My adult daughter and brother were the only ones that went into the water park so I can't give much of a review on it. She did say that some of the employees weren't as nice over there. You can wear only water shoes in the water and on the slides. She seen small kids wearing life vests. And if you wear glasses or sun glasses you have to wear a strap attached to them. You can also carry your phone in a water proof case that hangs from your neck on the slides and in the water. They sell those and the water shoes in the gift shops. read more

Had the rides are closed and most of the other half are broken in some way...good example is the fact that 2 seats on the whole Ferris wheel work....total trash. read more

we went to lake Winnie on June 27th and my son is slightly autistic he was playing on a slide he is 8 and taller than most kids his age he played on the slide for 30 minutes with a very nice lifeguard letting him play no problems then the next lifeguard came she yelled at him told him he was to tall and couldn't go down the slide made him cry he couldn't understand why he was getting yelled at so I told the lifeguard woman the other lady let him play no issue she was smart with me I said I wanted the manger then she said my child could go slide now my son filling where so hurt he just wanted to leave I hope writing this this woman will realize she didn't have to be so mean to my autistic son or any other child tall for there age read more

Held together by rust and ran by trustees ... water park not bad but the rest is a mess ...

We took our grandsons 2 and 6. They had an outstanding time on the kiddie rides and the employees at these rides were outstanding. So on this day the kids were the right age, right rides working, right employees working. So on this day for us it was a 5 star day. Now the reasons for the 3 star. The place is run down. It needs a lot of money to update but the crowds are small. No crowds, no money. The place is attractive to grandparents with small grandkids. Nostalgia. Very few people over 10 years old there. Nothing really to do for that age group. I did not see any of the roughest rides working. I am glad we went. Nostalgia. But I doubt we will go back. I do wish them luck and infusion of money. It could be a really good place. read more

This amusement park is fantastic for all ages (especially kids). The rides are mainly rides you would find at a county fair with a few amusement park type rides. Be sure to check the website to see what days they are open and what parts of the park are open. Google said the park was closed, when the website said it was open. There's a few things I appreciates and things I think you should know/things that could be improved. I'll break it down below... Things I appreciated: - Price: It's $29 for adults and $20 for kids. However, they have deals pretty much every day (just check the website for deals). On Friday we just brought a few cans of Dr. Pepper for the buy one get the second admission ticket half off. - Picnic Area: I know a low of parks don't allow outside food, but I really appreciate that Lake Winnie did. There is picnic areas where you can drop off your cooler and come back to eat. We ended up leaving our cooler in the car and just getting it when we were ready to eat, but there are a lot of people that just leave their coolers at the tables for later. - Ride options for kids: I really appreciate all of the ride options for kids. Short Lines: I really liked that this wasn't a crowded theme park. I would say 90% of the rides we went on had no line and the ones that did we waited maybe 10 minutes max. Things to know/things that could be improved: - Shared Ride Operators: In the kids section, there were multiple rides operated by the same. This means even though there are a good amount of rides in the kids area, there are only two rides running at one time. - Staggered Ride Openings: There were several rides that were only open during certain times of the day. For example the paddle boat rides shut down at 1, the Alpine Way didn't open until 1:30 pm, and the Cannon Ball Coaster didn't open until about 3 pm. I was bummed that the Cannon Ball Coaster didn't open earlier. It basically opened around the time we left. - A LOT of rides were closed: I was really bummed how many rides were closed (too many to name) the whole time. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and assume it was because it was really early in the season. - Some of the rides were really creepy. The Boat Chute (which was our favorite ride) basically had you going down a really long dark tunnel for about 5 minutes. And the Wacky ride was really dark and creepy. - I wasn't impressed with their sanitation (especially during a pandemic). read more

The water park was a lot of fun! However, more than half the rides in the amusement park were closed down but yet they charge full admission price. I could almost over look that but the cleanliness of the bathroom I can not. It was the most disgusting bathroom I have ever seen in my life!! I walked in and immediately started gagging. There are absolutely no words to describe the filth of this place. read more

The ticket office employees are rude and disingenuous. The foods for sale are Six Flags expensive but without the caliber of rides to justify the cost. Please be aware that they will not give you nor your child the money back once the transaction has taken place, for nothing. Period. The $34+ ticket covers both water side and regular park. They no longer have different ticket prices. read more

This theme park is adorable. Going to Lake Winnie is kind of like stepping back in time fifty years or so. I guess some of the rides are original from when the park opened, some have just been there a long time and the park overall is made to look old fashioned. There's nothing super exciting here... just a bunch of good old fun vintage rides, an old wooden roller coaster and a bunch of great photo ops. The price is good. Get in for $10, get in with fourteen ride tickets for $18 or get in with an unlimited wrist band for $26, I do believe. Even if you aren't into rides, this park is really pretty and picturesque, with a lake right in the middle. Unfortunately for me, I was here on one of those really hot days. It was 100 F at six pm and I had to leave the park and go somewhere air conditioned because I thought I was going to throw up. Yeah, that's how much of a pansy I am. But I met back up with my friends after dark and we still had fun. Tip: if it's summer, wait till evening to visit Lake Winnie because daytime heat is brutal, with no public areas with A/C for a respite. Unless you want to visit first aid, of course :) read more

Lake Winnie - again, again! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Rossville, Georgia

Everyone was rude and there was only like 7-8 rides open! It's not the same as it once was and Ik they could do better!

Worst time at Lake Winnie in nearly 30 years of going. Half of the rides were closed due to under staffing, but the only tickets available are for both the amusement and water park. Long wait times because rides were not being ran to full occupant capacity. Big thumbs down this visit. read more

Went to this amusement park this week and will not recommend it to anyone. It is a family owned and operated business that started in 1925. Some of the attractions may have been the original ones. It is OUTDATED and RUNDOWN. Many of the rides were not working or broke down throughout the day. If you go, bring your own food and water. The food lines were understaffed, very long, and S L O W. They do not give ice water. You can buy a small cup of ice for 50 cents or a larger one for $1 but they won't give you tap water so you'll have to pay for bottles of water too. They do have coke machines that sell water throughout the park but the water was sold out in many machines in the late afternoon so you'll have to hunt down a machine that still has some. Anything good? The snow cones and children's playground were good. However, we could have gotten snow cones and had the kids play at our neighborhood park for much less than the $200 we spent for the day and we would not have been so disappointed. read more

Lake Winne has been a go to for many years for me and my family members . I just visited the park for the forth of July and it looks to be going down hill on the amusement side of the park . The first ride I got on was the wacky house" it was very S l o w . . And smelled of old stagnant mold water on the inside . which can't be safe!! Another ride seemed old it kept doing weird jerky movements so the operator said she was closing it down . Another employee told us that most rides are broken and needed repair. I think the owners need to revamp on a lot of the rides if they plan on staying open or just make it a water park . The water park was nice and clean they seem to keep it under control way better than the amusement side I will definitely rethink my visit to this amusement park again read more

What a horrible place. We went for a school celebration day. They evidently pre-sold tickets to 50 schools, so they knew how many guests to expect. The parking attendant even told me that they were expecting over 5,000 people, so the employees knew what to expect. With the knowledge of the expected crowds, you would have thought they would plan ahead. Nope. Only two concessions were open. Two. All of the vending machines were empty by noon and management told me they don't refill them until after they close. Want to fill a water bottle? Sorry, the ONE water fountain is broken. I'm not going into a restroom that smells like pee to fill a water bottle. Not gonna happen. I explained this to management and they said I could leave the park and go across the street to the store for a drink. REALLY? This place is dirty, smelly, poorly run, and the guests aren't cared for. STAY AWAY. read more

My family and I had just moved to the Rossville area earlier in the year and we'd heard about this park as this big landmark attraction that a lot of people go to. Everyone seemed to talk it up, so I felt confident spending a day with my memaw and niece to have some fun. Little did I know that I'd soon discover that the locals were either crazy or just had no idea what an actual amusement park was. Pulling up to the place gave these ominous carnival vibes. I'm not talking Halloween horror movie vibes, either. I'm talking about the weird-uncle-who-gets-a-little-too-close-to-13-year-old-niece-jean-and-then-the-police-show-up-to-ask-questions-and-uncle-phil-suddenly-disappears-and-you-never-hear-from-him-again kind of vibes. My first interaction with the ticket booth and the park staff inside went about as well as I expected from a small town amusement park. Unfortunately, it took me about half an hour too long to realize that they weren't part of some gimmick where the staff treat you like garbage like at that famous restaurant chain, Dicks Last Resort. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't having fun until then. Like clockwork, one of the first things you're greeted with at a carnival is the long walk of games enticing you to throw $20 worth of long-past-your-prime-no-really-I-can-hit-it-this-time balls at blocks or balloons or small children or whatever the new fad is nowadays for the chance at a $2 prize. Knowing in the back of your mind that you're getting ripped off by rigged carnival games didn't sit any better when that mid-day musk from the "lake" just behind you wafted over. Let's just be clear, "Lake" Winnie is just a catchy name, because to call that body of water that probably ain't more than 6 feet deep in the middle a "lake" would be a feat of generosity that Ghandi would take exception to. It's a pond, and the smell of pond scum did nothing to endear us to this "historic landmark". But, overall we were having a pretty good time when we started getting hungry and headed to the big concession stand between the board walk and the big coaster, the "Cannonball" (oh, we'll get to that screaming wooden death trap in a sec). Order our food, now mind you, meals at most amusement parks are expensive, but when I saw that they'd served us what amounts to microwave chicken fingers and the runner up for the Saddest Hamburger In The World™ with a side of Depression Fries™, I was kind of upset. We ate it, though. My memaw wasn't about to pitch a fit over some food. We didn't have no trouble with it. It may have been cheap and overpriced, but it was edible at least. Anything to stave off a hangry child and elderly woman, honestly. It wasn't too long after we got done eating that I realized something was very amiss, though. This was right about the time my niece was pulling us over to ride the parks "famous Cannonball" which apparently had a plaque and everything commemorating it. Now, I've ridden a few wooden coasters in my life, but this thing looked ANCIENT. The plaque says it opened in 1967 and I believe it. As far as wooden coasters go, this thing is a dinosaur. To my chagrin, I was roped into going on it, however. As the dominant male in our party, it was my duty to escort my niece and memaw through the ordeal in the unwritten tradition of manhood. We waited in line for probably 20 minutes, which I guess in roller coaster line time is pretty quick, but in oh-lord-my-bowels-are-doing-flips time, it felt like an eternity. Mind you, I have already gone to the bathroom twice since lunch, and a third time looked on the horizon. To spare you the grim details, just imagine any 80's romcom where a quirky teen boy tries to impress a girl on a roller coaster, but eats something bad just before. That's a pretty good plot synopsis for you. Instead of a teen boy, it's a 30-year-old man and instead of throwing up on the girl's shoes, my niece ended up with uncle-poo-poo-pants just a foot away and nobody any the wiser. So in summary, we pull up to a depressing carnival, talk with depressing staff, play some depressing games, eat some depressing food, ride a depressing ride and leave with depression and no underwear. Turns out the locals were right. It's an experience that I won't soon forget. read more

I had a lovely, enjoyable day at Lake Winnie. It is a good amusement park with a lot of choice of rides and games, the water park is a good one and the nature around and in the park makes it such a pretty little place. Good choice and range of rides for everyone, from a rollercoaster to Bumper Cars. Smoking areas are not too inconvenient to get to wherever in the park you are, you may even get to watch wildlife while sat out there alone like I did! :) Some staff were lovely, others could use customer service training - the bare minimum I expect when I am spending money somewhere is for the staff to act like they are pleased I am there. In the food concessions I noticed this the most that the staff couldn't care less. The food was good quality although mostly junk food like Burgers, Hot Dogs ect but then it is a small amusement park, not a theme park like the UK's Alton Towers, it will not have a huge range. It definitely needs an ice cream stand somewhere though! I recommend Lake Winnie to anyone! A great little day/afternoon out and I would go back. read more

Half of the rides are closed because of lack of staff to run them, however, all the little booths are open with no one using them. Almost 40 bucks to get in and can't ride stuff. The rides that are open, they are only filling to less than half capacity and blaming COVID (examples include the Cannonball, which they are allowing 8 at a time, and the bumper cars, which has only 5 at a time). Lake Winnie feels like Lame Winnie today. Either get more workers and open the rides to full capacity, close the booths that are pure profit and allow those workers to manage rides, or bite the bullet and close the park until you can operate at full capacity. Absolutely the worst trip to Lake Winnie in 35+ years. Do better. read more

This place has really gone downhill. Half the rides closed. Most of the food vendors closed. We ended up leaving severs hours earlier than we planned simply because most of the rides were broken and not working. I've been going to this park for years and this place used to be awesome. But after my trip last week I've never been so disappointed. I probably will not be going back. Complete waste of money when you can't even enjoy your day because everything is either closed or broken. read more

Take my daughters and her friends here just to enjoy this beautiful day I got harassed at least for over an hour over a dress code that they kept switching of the rules on me very unprofessional I felt so bad top it off I'm pregnant they were stressing me out I couldn't even fully enjoy this beautiful day. I finally got able to speak to the manager which his name is James at first he was making no sense he was not understanding me and then he finally understand me and apologize he said that the staff are new which is that's none of my business. Seriously how they were harassing me I'm surprised I'm not even pursuing a lawsuit.. read more

This is a very friendly and family friendly amusement park. Most of the rides are the classics. What's the real GEM is the lazy river and it's rides. They are fantastic. read more

The rides were janky and dirty. Food was painfully overpriced; we paid almost $50 for two hotdogs.

Very bad costumer service no one care they change they promised and said we never said that asked for call records some time say we do but when you ask for it to prove they will said we never record call read more

I was very disappointed in lake winnie today. I paid full price and 16 of the rides were closed. It came to my attention that the park was short staffed, which I completely understand. It's happening everywhere. However we should have been informed that almost half the rides would not be operational before paying. Secondly, I measured my son before leaving the house and he was 48 inches exactly. When we tried the matterhorn, he was tall enough to ride at 48 inches. He was also tall enough for the scrambler, another 48 inch ride. Then when we tried the bumper cars and the ferris wheel he appeared to be two inches too short! Even though both of those rides are also 48 inches. We also observed 2 other 48 inch signs that were not the correct height. Today was my son's birthday, that's why we decided to visit. We were extremely disappointed and we will never be back. I want to make sure other families are not put in the same situation that we were today. Lake Winnie used to be an awesome family place, but for $158 for four people it's just not worth it anymore. read more

We love lake winnie. I buy season passes for my family every year! We go during the week and the crowds are never bad. We usually don't have to wait in line either. read more

As I was buying tickets at the gate with my Father-In-Law the lady looked behind us at my hubby, Mother-in-Law and children noticing our chicken from KFC and Mrs. Winners. She said "They wont let you in the park with that because they consider it advertising." So I asked if we get rid of the boxes if we can just rearrange the cooler so we can get the chicken itself in and she said yes just the boxes have to go. So I told my husband and he pulled the cooler out of the line to the side to comply. As he was doing so and the girl was processing our money and ride bands a guy walks over and starts harassing him about the boxes. He explained the lady at ticketing told us and he was getting the chicken in the cooler so the boxes could be thrown away. The guy then started to threaten him with security and kept repeating these items are advertising and generally making everyone in line stare by making a scene himself. My Father-In-Law walked over and managed to get him to lay-off. Meanwhile the line was piling up because the guy wouldn't let my husband come over to get his arm-band. Finally the guy left us alone and we got the band and sorted the chicken and stuffed it in the cooler and I walked the boxes back to my car while my family found a picnic table. I could not believe they would treat their guests this way honestly. There was nowhere that we were pre-warned about restaurant containers. If we had been, we would have prepared. We feel they treated us like we purposely came to advertise these companies and instead of being polite and apologetic for inconveniencing us, they acted like we (paying customers) were a problem. I don't normally get upset easily but if it were not for the kids wanting so much to play I would have gotten a refund right there and left the park (Never once was I rude back except to say this is seriously ridiculous treating us this way). Management needs training, and needs to train employees on what good customer service is. read more

I love the Chattanooga-area institution that is Lake Winnie! Vintage rides and a carnival atmosphere make this amusement park as quaintly magical for me today as it did when my dad took me as a little kid. The park's many new rides have added some greater appeal to big kids and adults, and the park's wooden coaster (the Cannon Ball) is a great ride for kids (or adults!) to use as a first toll roller coaster! ! If you visit LW fully aware that she is a small, classic style, family-oriented amusement park, you'll likely love her for all that she is. There is no pretending to be anything else! The quality of the base park, the staff, and the consistency should all garner a 5/5, but I had to dock a star... Why? The addition of the Soakya! Water slides have come with a $5 up-charge to the all day ride pass, so now one adult's entry + an all-day stamp costs $31...6Flags over GA is $36, so the price\ value ratio is rapidly decreasing. Tips: Summer is hot and muggy here, so plan to stay cool using the parks shady areas, mister zone, or picnic areas to rehydrate. Go in the evening on the open til 10 nights if you have young ones. The likes are shorter and temps are better. Check when the water park will open and close; its hours differ from the main park. Use the COKE CAN coupon (shop anywhere in 'nooga and you'll find one) to get the BOGO all day ride pass. It's a much bigger value than the McDonald's or Sunbeam bread $5 off. read more

Great place to take your children. Don't expect much. You get what you pay for. Overall it was a nice experience. The staff are pretty friendly. Easy Check In. Parking lot is a decent size. Rides are older but it was fun. read more

Literally the rudest workers I have ever experienced. Every single employee had the rudest attitude and looked like they did not want to be there. Half the rides were closed but made us pay full price? Make that make sense. Also the park needs a lot of maintenance/cleaning. They deff need new employees bc I have never witnessed such terrible workers. read more

If you have never been to Lake Winnie before, do not enter the park with high expectations and comparisons to amusement parks such as Six Flags or Dollywood. Lake Winnie is a unique, small amusement park and provides many attributes that larger theme parks cannot provide. When someone asks me about Lake Winnie, I always describe it as an upscale, vintage fair. There are several rides that appeal to adults, teens, and kids. Many of the rides are very old, but this doesn't mean that they're not fun. My grandmother, 65, still remembers riding the boat chute when she visited Lake Winnie in 4th grade, and it still exists in the same spot. My favorite rides are the Canon Ball, the wooden roller coaster, and the paddle boats, which are located in the center of the park in the lake (aka Lake Winnie). The rides are located side by side, which means short walking distances. Plus, there's usually not a line for almost all of the rides, especially during the weekdays. Pricing is perfect for what the park offers. Only $26 for unlimited rides all day, but during the weekdays, the website provides specials to receive $5 off of admission. In addition, the park food is very reasonable and much cheaper compared to places such as Six Flags. Lake Winnie is not a well known amusement park, which makes it special. Fun for all ages, especially kids and families. I highly recommend giving Lake Winnie a try! read more
