For coasters, Chris is right. Hands down Cedar Point. But my favorite park is Knoebel's. Phoenix is a great ride, and just the family style park, in the woods, all the unique stuff and a huge variety of food, it's just the best to me. When I was in NAPHA we gave Knoebel's a ton of "BEST" awards (food, vending, #2 wooden coaster, etc.) meaning they were the best park in the US in those catagories.

I like the crowd there, too. Far enough away from the big cities that I've never encountered busloads of people that are there to do nothing but misbehave and line-jump like at Dorney or any Six Flags. I will never again in my life go to Dorney Park because of the crowds they attract. And to think, Cedar Point owns Dorney. . .
