    Great park, but too crowded in the summer. Front of Line is worth it, otherwise you will be waiting in lines for hours.

    Get Front of Line if you’re going around Christmas. It is very crowded! You’ll be spending most of your day standing in lines without it.

    Just went 9/27. Forecasted to be ghost town and crowds were pretty light. Some rides walk on, other had longer waits- simpsons was 25-30min wait all day. Prices on food in park reasonable- much better then disney ( anywhere is better then disney) and nice choices. Overall experience much better then disney- less crowded, nicer people. Will make this a stop on the way to Knotts Berry Farm, Studio tour – long waits earlier in day, short waits end of day, before close. I went when ghost town. this park does not have alot of space- I would hate to see it when it is packed- would be unbearable.
