    Knoebels is awesome!! It is my favorite park. Free admission, free parking. Great old time park. I love the Phoenix and the carousel. Grapping the brass ring is so much fun and a great tradition. It is a beautiful park in the mountains. No park better than Knoebels. Thanks for sharing this video. The Phoenix is awesome in the back seat. So much air time. I love it!! I am so glad that you did this video on Knoebels and shared this wonderful park with so any others who may not know of its greatness.

    Knoebels is a fun park to visit . Being able to pay for just the rides you want to go on vs an admission price makes it enjoyable for parents/grandparents that want to visit but may not want to go on rides . Love the Phoenix coaster ( lots of air time ) , the Twister is very rough . I never liked going on coasters until I started riding in the front seat . Favorite ride is the Flyers . I didn't think they would ever get the Flying Turns opened. I remember going there the first time and they had just finished construction and then going back several different times and it still wasn't open .

It is how Kennywood used to be. Plus the park is absolutely beautiful in the mountains. I hope that you have a chance to visit there sometime. If you like Kennywood you would love Knoebels

    I went to this Amusement Resort 3 times. I went to Knoebels with my then-wife and her family. It is more than an Amusement Park. It has a campground as well. It has sites for tent camping and sites for Campers and Trailers. They also have cabins that have just sleeping lofts to fully furnished and have a small kitchen and indoor plumbing. A family can rent fully furnished houses that surround the park. Did you notice flood level markers??? The park receives a lot of rain during severe thunderstorms and sometimes a hurricane or tropical storm. The campground has a free shuttle bus service for people to get to the park without walking. The food is so good. I wish I had the chance to ride Flying Turns.
    That ride was being constructed the 3 times I was there and after the 3rd time I went, they opened the after we left a few weeks after. I would love to ride it. I can't because I don't have money or a car to go anywhere. My former mother-in-law's partner was the one who drove us to Knoebels. I miss going to the park. I miss camping there. I miss waking up in the morning to crisp clean air and eating breakfast. Eating while camping is so much better. We had to bring our own water since I can't drink well water. Something about well water screws up my digestive system. I swam in the pool there and it was so refreshing. I still have a sweatshirt from Knoebels. I took 2 videos of me riding Twister and Phoenix. The Alamo restaurant has some great food. That is my review. You didn't go into The Alamo???

Potato cakes are a local staple around here-it’s a Polish, Coal Region thing-all of the church picnics have them. I’ve never had from Knoebels, I think it’s because I know how authentic ones are supposed to taste. If they are made homemade with real shredded potatoes, they are amazing. The food court also offered some local, Polish cuisine too, halushki and kelbesia. Glad you enjoyed your trip!

That trackless coaster was very interesting. Pretty sure I'd have to try it if I ever find myself there. I love that this place exist. Great place for familys on a budget.

    New subscriber and I’m really enjoying your videos! I found y’all from these Knoebel’s videos. I’m a native Pennsylvanian…50 years old and my favorite amusement park is definitely Knoebel’s, so thank you for doing the videos on the park, food, etc….
    Knoebel’s is great for older folks and disabled folks as well as the rest of the family. I can’t stress that enough to amusement park enthusiasts…. and having the shade with the benches and casual, laid back atmosphere is beneficial to anyone that isn’t at the peak of their youth. It’s very rare that you get an amusement park that isn’t just a big, blacktopped heat-box. 😂
    I’ve been to most amusement parks on the east coast and northern part of the Midwest (Ohio mostly) and I must say, people don’t realize how many great places we have other than Coney Island and Six Flags, Great Adventure.
    So, thank you for doing so many great videos about the east coast and southeast US. There are so many UA-camrs that do west coast or. Texas….but not many doing what y’all are doing. And I just love all the videos I’ve watched so far…I’ve been binge watching since finding y’all. ❤
    Btw…where are y’all from? I’m pretty sure Bobby (Bobbi?) is from PA….cause she says hoagie 😅, but plz correct me if I’m wrong.
    Anyway, thanks for sharing your travels and adventures! ✌🏻😊

The trackless roller coaster looked fun but I don't know if it's the only one in the world like the sign says. There is a roller coaster ride at Kings Dominion that is trackless too. Not sure what the difference would be. This looks like a great family park to visit! Thanks for sharing.
