    No one talks about this coaster and it’s legit one of the best small woodies in the country.

    My Daddy and I watched them build this from start to finish. We would sit on top of the car and eat hot dogs and a bottled COKE was a big treat to me. How I miss my Daddy and the times past.

    First roller coaster I ever rode on. I’m a local and I was so excited the day I was big enough to ride it. Not one person here is lying. That coaster is absolutely anything BUT smooth. Thought I was gonna die. Held onto my dad for dear life. Not one moment was I still in my seat, I was flying. With every single drop my breath was anywhere but my chest. It’s an amazing coaster however you will get out that seat with bruises.

    My Uncle was the original electrician when Swamp Fox was built in 1966. I was only 7 but he would take us to work with him so I got to watch while it was being built. When it opened I do believe it may have been the largest coaster in the South. Fun to ride but smooth it AIN’T

    Swamp Fox 🦊 is such a wild woody ride! The drops take your breath and it gets faster and faster - brutal airtime - no new- fangled steel retracking here! Get to Myrtle Beach and ride the Swamp Fox - You'll never forget it ❤

    I think I need to go to this park. Not even remotely local but it just looks nice and fun. Probably not packed during the week, and besides Twist N Shout it has a pretty enjoyable looking wooden roller coaster. Also kept up on-maybe not like some of the "best taken care of" woodies, but definitely far above the neglected ones. There also building a funplex park somewhere nearby, or in myrtle beach rather than will already have one kinda cool coaster opening this year.

    I want to Family Kingdom and got on this ride with my boyfriend Dallas This year in 2022. We got on the ride and it started out going slow at first. But when the ride got up to the top. It want really fast. The ride made me hit my head on back of the sit. My boyfriend says it was unsafe because it alomst made us fall out of the ride. I do not recommend going on this ride.
