I rode Dragster front row at night...I can’t even tell you the amount of bugs I inhaled😳😭
Right! It’s really a thing - but I love it lol
Lol
I inhaled a bug while riding the steel vengeance yesterday lmao.
Mmmmmm protein!!!
“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9 “For God so loved the World that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16 That’s how much he loves us that he sacrificed his own Son so that we wouldn’t have to be in Jesus spot so that we wouldn’t have to suffer.
Perhaps the start of a new series? It sure would be useful for coaster enthusiasts trying to plan out optimal days on coaster trips.
This is a great 💡 idea!
I’ve also been going no less than 20+ times per season for many many years. This is missing a lot! Make sure if you wear glasses or sunglasses you buy and use a glasses strap, as most coasters require you to do so. And for pants, make sure you wear cargo shorts or pants, having button, Velcro, or optimally zipped pockets, to store your phone, and wallet. They will fall out otherwise. Also, if you bring a carry on bag, get a locker as most coasters don’t have bins. Also, bring ponchos and accept the weather at CP is very uncontrollable. The weather may be sunny, and still rain. Most coasters run in the rain still, it’s wind and lightning that shut down most.
The last I knew, phones are not allowed on Steel Vengence even in pockets. Employees were adamant about kicking people out of the park if they did not comply. So be prepared to put them in a locker before getting in line.
@@forliberty1805 yes. Sort of. They have free lockers toward the end of the que that can hold your wallet, phone, keys. Just not anything more.
Thank you
My personal favorite place to eat outside of the Cedar Point resort is the Thirsty Pony. Excellent restaurant. Plus, it's connected to the Cedar Lanes Bowling Alley. It's also just down the road from Cedar Point
I live about 20 minutes from cedar point so its easy to plan trips here is how I do it it
Go when I want to and when its open
That how all the locals plan it!
Dude I would have lifetime passes lol 😆 or at least season passes
Unfortunately, Cedar Point has changed the rules for Early Entry for 2021. While guests of Hotel Breakers and Lighthouse Point can still enter the Magnum Gate and the WindSeeker Gate, Platinum Passholders and guests of Express Hotel can only use the Main Gate. Golden Entry also requires Gold Passholders to use the Main Gate when that opens at 9:30am. It sucks that Platinum Passholders can't use the Magnum Gate anymore, but I get why they're doing it. The crowds can get insane at the Magnum Gate.
Same with 2020!
I have a gold pass and was able to get in early at the Magnum gate every time I went
When I go to Cedar Point, I always stay at Cedar Point's Express Hotel because it's the cheapest, but I think I'll have to stay at Castaway Bay next time because of my love for waterparks.
If concerned about $ and going for a day, take a picnic lunch in a cooler. You can drop the cooler off in the picnic shelter (outside and left of main entrance). Never had a problem in doing that for 30 years.
Also, as of right now, CP is not doing Fastlane this year. If they do, then Fastlane+ ranges $120-150.
Does the picnic shelter have spaces to lock up your cooler in? Just asking so that it doesn't seem like someone could just come in and steal your cooler.
I’m doing some SERIOUS planning right now.
SAME!
Restaurant to eat outside the Park! I TOTALLY Recommend Texas Roadhouse! OMG there food is Amazing (Love there Rolls n Cinnamon Butter) But we had the Greatest Service we have EVER had eating out at a Restaurant! Our Server Matt was Amazing, he was always checking on us if we needed anything, also kept bringing us the Dinner Rolls n Cinnamon Butter. So if u ever go eat at Texas roadhouse in Sandusky, see if Server Matt is working, you will have to best service Ever!! We cant wait to go back again next season and hopefully he is still there, Hopefully being a Manager by then cause he sure does deserve it, the way he was running back n forth to n from the kitchen and delivering food and checking on his Guest!!
Great tips Laura! I really appreciate you watching :)
Awesome well-informed video! Wish I would have had this one when I went up to Cedar Point for my first time 3 years ago.
Check to see what day in August that schools in Ohio are opening up. Plan your trip after that.
That doesn't always work because they also reduce operations down to weekend only by mid August, and with the Gold Passes if it's nice on the weekend it will be packed!
Plus the schools in Michigan don’t go back until after Labor Day and many people from Michigan will go during the time after Ohio schools go back
The last few years [2016 - 2019] I'd gone to Cedar Point, I'd opted to go in the beginning of August, preferably on a Wednesday. The weather was hot and the lines weren't that long. I didn't even bother with the Fast Pass.
@@timk987 cedar point doesn't go to weekend only to Labor day.
@@latoyamcdonald4444 I’m not sure I understand what you’re trying to say, but according to the park’s website, currently they will begin every day operations the last week of June through to the second week of August. The following 3 weeks leading up to Labor Day weekend the park will be closed Monday - Thursday. Sorry if that wasn’t clear in my original post.
Whenever we go we always stop at Fazoli's in Sandusky on our way home. It's about 15 minutes from the park. It's a fast-food Italian restaurant (a rarity), and the food is good. If you don't have a Fazoli's where you live and you want something different check it out.
That's too funny Jeff, because I used to work at a Fazoli's in Dayton for a few months back when I was 21. haha!
My last trip was in 2013, weekend in May. We stayed at breakers hotel, was worth it, but cheaper than it is now. Friday night was go karts, mini golf, dinner. Saturday we got fast lanes, was definitely worth it, rode all the good coasters multiple times. Sunday we rode maverick,favorite in the park, in the morning till lines got long, then rode flat rides and family rides and a couple more coasters with short lines.
Had a fantastic time and am planning my next trip in 2022.
Sounds like a great trip! I can’t wait to hear your trip report from the 2022 trip :-)
You hit the nail on the head. I agree with everything you said. I think the three most critical things to having a good time at cedar point is staying on site, getting the fast lane plus and staying for at least 2 nights. I’d also recommend spending an afternoon (on the day you day you don’t get fast lane plus) on the beach. It’s so relaxing and fun. Then go back into the park for dinner and ride some more rides until closing time. This is an incredible experience that you’ll never forget. Take Brandon’s advice!
Yes I agree about the beach day! So relaxing and really gives you more energy for the park later that eve...
Awesome video man!
This was amazing! Great information. Love CP
Hey! Thank you! I appreciate you watching! - B
For eating in Sandusky I recommend Better half in downtown it is a nice mom and pop shop that is very affordable. It also has Great customer service they serve breakfast lunch and dinner.
Sold! I will have to check this out! Thank you ! - Brandon
@@TP_Recommendations thank you just trying to help people out
Marconi's in Huron has great Italian food and a nice outdoor patio. Family joint near Berardi's in Huron.
Booked a few nights at Hotel Breaks in early June as I will be going to go to Coastermania this year. It is part of a Pennsylvania trip where I will visit Hershey, Kennywood, Knoebels, Dorney Park, Lakemont, Waldameer, and even Conneaut Lake. I haven't been to the Pennsylvania parks but have been to Cedar Point a few times. It will be nice to get back to Cedar Point.
You'll love all the PA parks!
@@TP_Recommendations Yeah I am looking forward to those parks. SkyRush, Phantom's Revenge, Phoenix, and those historic coasters like a Leap the Dips. It should be a good trip.
If you want to stay off property, there is a decent Quality Inn right by the entrance to Cedar Point. It’s quite affordable too, just being a standard hotel
Thanks for the tip! I appreciate it!
I’ll be working at CP for the first time this summer and will keep these tips in mind for myself and guests, great video!
Thank you so much for this video I’m going back to Cedar Point this Summer and I can’t wait!
Thank you for making this video! I’m visiting the park for my first time in July and this is super helpful
Of course - now some of the info might not be applicable for this year (due to covid) but still some good useful info!
Wow I’ve been waiting for a video like this. Thanks for giving a heads up about the trip me and my buddy are going to have in June (haven’t been there in 20 years)
Hey! How fun! You're welcome! Enjoy and if you have any other questions, just ask :)
Thank you for watching! - Brandon
@@TP_Recommendations thanks so much
Looking forward to the trip
Side note
What’s with everyone doing videos about Cedar Point recently (must be the trend lol)
Going here this year, this will be a very useful video!
I really needed this video! Thanks for all the useful information. I’ll definitely use this video to my advantage when I go to CP!
Of course! Thank you!
Awesome video Brandon. Very useful video for anyone planning a trip to CP.
CP is my home park and my first trip was in 2007. Gone every year since. I've never done the train ride. lol I've never even heard of the thrills VIP tours. I had no idea you could do that! I love this park. I just hope i can start making open to close trips without getting tired again. Age is starting to show..... and im only 27. LOL RIP. Also fast lane plus is DEF worth it if you can afford to do it. Can't wait for my trip to KI in a month as well. I need my coaster fix!
Great video!
Booked a lighthouse point cabin for friends and I on opening weekend. I haven’t been since Top Thrill Dragster opened, and I was tiny. There’s bound to be plenty of 2021-esque obstacles, but I know it’ll be blast especially with tips from this video. Thanks a million.
That is awesome! Enjoy! Some of these tips might be a little off this year due to covid, but I know for a fact, that a lot of them will help!
Awesome video, thanks! I'm hoping to go in early September, so I will be sure to put these tips to good use.
Thank you!! Definitely earned a thumbs up 👍!!
I love the passion you have for this park. This is a great park…possibly the best place on earth? Keep rocking.
This is what I needed. Thank you
You're so welcome! Enjoy your trip! - B
Oh man thank u soooooo much. God bless u and ur family!. I didn't know any of these things. Oh it's on when it comes to me walking fast to these early great rides..
Very informative thank you! Looking forward to dining in the park, and hitting up a White Castle as they do not have them in my local area!
I have unlocked a secret since I moved from Ohio to Michigan...school starts later in Michigan, so I like to go the first week of school for Ohio kids and the lines are MUCH shorter.
You forgot to mention that the water park is a separate admission cost, unless you have season passes.
Why they can't be like Kings island in this way
@@miked7212 I actually wish they would have moved it up to some of the Cleveland Ave. property they've been buying up back when they upgraded it from Soak City to CP Shores. That would have freed up some land for expansion!
@@timk987 true, it's hard for cedar point to expand like Kings island possibly can
They must’ve changed it when they re-theme the park to Cedar point Shores
@@jrax1713 If you're talking about admission to the water park. It's always been seperate. I was refering to them removing Soak City from the peninsula and opening the rebranded CP Shores out on the main land where they have been buying up property over the years.
Fantastic vid
Hey there, this video was great. Packed full of info.
I'm pushing hard for a Cedar Point trip sometime in the next 3-4 years, as we are down in TN we've never had the pleasure of going. (Though we do hace a trip to Dollywood booked this Summer 👍)
When tge time for Cedar Point comes, I'll be hitting this video (or an updated one?) up, for sure.
Thanks again, be safe!
This is gonna help me after covid thanks, I approve this video
I was planning on possibly going to cedar fair for the first time this summer and this came out the perfect time. Plan on doing a day at kings island then driving up and doing a day or two at cedar point. Together with going to carowinds for the first time on a different trip this summer, I’m ready to have a summer full of the best of cedar fair!
We're doing the same! But swap Carowinds for Knotts Berry Farm! Awesome! 🍹 Here's to good weather!
This video came out at the perfect time. Many people are planning trips nowadays due to the Covid-19 situation starting to improve. Nice job!!!!
Thumbs-up from me.
Thank you! ❤️
For food outside the park Andy’s China dragon express is about 8mins from the park. They’ve got a drive thru and are open later in the summer so it’s perfect for after the park. Not to mention it’s cheap and the portions are huge!
Sounds delicious lol
I love this! Thanks so much!
You're so welcome! If you have any other questions - feel free to reach out :) Thank you for watching! - B
Thanks for sharing. Going there at the end of July for the first time and we are staying at Breakers and group of 5 people got the Fast plus tickets and the meal plans! Can't wait! I will make sure to close my mouth on the roller coasters! 🤣
so excited to go this summer
Great video! I've grown up here and work here now as well. A Place Like No Other does not even touch how amazing I think the park is! Stay safe and healthy yall! and God bless you and your family :)
I am a huge roller coaster enthusiast and never been to Cedar Point thank you for all the pointers and tips I found this video very useful for a future trip!!! All of your video footage of the park makes Cedar Point look so big in a lot of photos I have seen it makes the park looks so small, this place looks like a roller coaster enthusiast’s dream park!!!
My Dude You are gonna LOVE this park!!!! I'm excited af for you!!!! :D
Great video! I'm visiting Cedar Point in June so this was rlly helpful. If possible, would love to see videos like this for Holiday World and Silver Dollar City, since I'll also be visiting those parks.
What i've done is got a Platinum season pass at Canadas Wonderland (my home park) and that will get us free entry, parking, and early access to the park, and the same to any cedar fair park we visit
That’s great!!!
Nice video !!!
Taking my first trip ever to cedar point next month. I’m so thrilled and this was very helpful! Thank you!
Hey there! You’re more than welcome! Thank you for watching! 🎢
how was it and how much did this help?
@@Fred-ct7tl Wish I could follow up but due to some unforeseen events I didn’t end up going. I’m almost glad I didn’t go because top thrill dragster was a huge draw and I didn’t know at the time, but it’s not operating this year at all. Oh well, maybe next year!
Excellent help and advice! Thanks!!
You’re welcome! Keep in mind - this year - things are a little different! Lol
Thank you for watching! I apprecaite it! - B
Good video! 👍
This is awesome! I’m going in a week can’t wait!
Hope you enjoy it! :) Thanks for watching! - Brandon
I just went for my first time. Did everything u said, besides going early august on the weekend, and taking the sky train to millennium force first, then maverick, steel vengeance; however, we didn’t mess around and were the first people to board the sky train, so it didn’t really matter if others had the same plan
Hey Jake, thank you for watching and thank you for remembering to come back and comment! How was your day? Have a good time? What was your fav coaster?
@@TP_Recommendations My favorite coster was Magnum XL it was the last one we rode at night ! I LOVE the old classic ones that kind of shake when u ride them, and that had to be the best night ride I've ever experienced. overall we got to ride steel vengeance twice and ride all the ones that were open. AM a trill seeker now am addicted, my sister gets season passes every year. I will be making time to visit guaranteed, and crossing my fingers Top thrill dragster will open soon. It definitely has to go in the record as one of the best days of my life
@@NotJakefromstatefarm love hearing this Jake! That’s amazing!!
6:44 if you check their park hours, those are literally the only weeks the park is fully open
Eating outside the park - I 100% recommend rapid fired pizza
When I worked there on my day off I would come up to the park around 8 am and then walk back to steel Vengeance and 8:45 am get back there and one of the first rides on it and then do all the other early enter rides and then head back down to my room till around 6pm and do the night rides on everything and most of the time get last ride on Steel Vengeance or Maverick.
I always stay at the Motel 6 near Huron, Ohio. It is only 10 minutes from the park and is far away from the craziness of the main drag where most people stay. Nearby, there are two gas stations, a Burger King, McDonald’s, Arby’s and Lemy’s (Great place for breakfast!). The Motel 6 is quite nice, allows pets and has ample parking along with a swimming pool and hot tub. One of the better Motel six is I have ever stayed in! You can drive up to the park along the lake:peninsula rather than going in across the causeway. There is rarely a line at the parking lot gate when you drive in this back entrance.
Lol 😂 I love the “leave them in the dust”. When we would go there when I was younger we’d do everything you pretty much said. Hotel Breakers is a little pricier but worth it for sure.
Thirsty pony has amazing bourbon wings, its a arcade and bowling alley as well. Really good adult beverages but they are kinda pricey, but worth it.
Great info! Thanks for watching!!
I've worked as a performer for several seasons at the park. Milan Avenue just a mile or two south of the park has tons of chain restaurants like Olive Garden, Outback, Texas Roadhouse, Chick-Fil-A, Applebees, etc. But if you are looking for a local restaurant then I HIGHLY recommend Small City Tap House. It is an Asian-Fusion and Sushi Restaurant that is also an amazing brewery!
Hey Henry! Thanks for watching and sharing your recommendations! I will have to check this out!!! Thanks!!! What years did you work there?
Small City Scrumptious!!! And for the Authentic Vietnamese...Mekong!!
@@TP_Recommendations I performed there in the 2018 and 2019 seasons and Ill be returning for this upcoming 2021 season!
Cool video
7:23 It's like an outdoor version of the Old Mill at Kennywood
I’m going to cedar point this year July 4th, can’t wait !
Places to eat: Thirsty Pony, Eats N Treats, Dianna's Deli, Nachos, Costa Azul. For dessert, Toft's ice cream is a must at their ice cream parlor west of the park on hwy 6.
All of it bro 👍👍
My family and I are staying at Lighthouse Point for 5 days. Can’t wait to visit both parks!
That’s awesome! You’ll love it!!
Thank you for watching! I appreciate you & the view! 🙏🏻
On my recent trip, I stayed at a Sleep Inn on the main drag and then went and used Cedar Point Road to get to the park and avoided the causeway and main drag altogether.
I love staying at Lighthouse Point. More privacy and can be economical with 6+ people. Also, at Lighthouse Point I usually bring my Camp Chef stove and charcoal for the park's grill. You save so much money making your own meals.
A very informative video for the Cedar Point first-timer. Well done as usual.
Those aren't the " slowest moving lines ", they're the longest. Rainy days are the best. I rode SV a few days ago, 6 times, in an hour, with no fast lane. Night rides, you need to wait till it has BEEN dark for a while, because then the bugs aren't as bad. They're generally only really bad in the evenings at sunset. Great Wolf Lodge also has an indoor waterpark ( not as large as Kalahari ), but it's also a few minutes closer to the park and it's also very nice. The town hall is closed for this year. The drink plan is a must, period. There are many restaurants right on 250 within about 10 minutes of the park. Early entry at the Magnum gate is ONLY for guests at Breakers. Everyone else ( even if you have a pass ) can only use the front gate for early entry.
This video was created for when there is no more covid protocols. The magnum gate was always open for any park guests… doesn’t matter if you’re staying at the resort or not. Again, that rule was in place for this year. This video might have some things that don’t line up with this this years
I went on a rainy day and the lines were still crazy long for me. Waited for millennium force for 4 and a half hours and corkscrew for 2 hours in just one day
Amazing video! As a brazillian who is planning a cedar point trip for next year (if covid let me haha) i am taking note on every tip of yours!
Thank you! Glad I can help! Thank you for watching :)
Thank you for this! I have been going to cedar point every year growing up with my family, but this is my first year going with myself and my husband for our honeymoon. I appreciate the advice on what is worth purchasing. For sure will be splurging on Fast Lane Plus and grabbing the food and drink passes!
Hey Jessica! How fun! I hope you guys have a great time together!! Thank you for watching! I apprecaite it! - B
Enter at the entrance right next to valraven. I rope dropped there, the security lady was 10 minutes late and I was still 12th in line
Best tips are: Buy a fast lane plus pass, stay at Hotel Breakers or a cabin, the best entrance, and get to the park early.
Thank you for the tips Jesse!! I appreciate it!
Now THIS is the video I was waiting for
Lol I live 30 mins from cedar Point
As far as good places to eat outside of the park; there is a really good pizza place called chet&matts. There's a nice diner called dianes, they're open 24/7. And there's a good Mexican restaurant really close to the park called Nachos.
I worked at Cedar Point about 9 years ago. The rides in the front of the park actually do fill up faster at opening.
Great tips. Cedar point express sounds like it for me. Breakers may be a bit to much at the moment. Can't wait to go for the first time.
I'm soo glad I found this video. My husband and I are going to CP in July on a weekend (the only time we had free and my husband works during the week) it is both our first times going and thankfully we have platinum passes.
THats great! Hope you’re his helped Kelly! Thank you for watching! And if you have any other questions, just let me know. It will be busy on a weekend in July. So keep that in mind.
@@TP_Recommendations I'm gonna get the fast lane plus like you suggested
Honestly, it’s so worth it
Staying at the Hotel Breakers is an advantage because, 1. you are a few steps away from the Magnum Entrance, 2. You have early entry, and 3. you can marathon Maverick, Steel Vengeance, and Millenium Force before the park opens to the public.
Parking at cedar point shores was an excellent tip. I read that somewhere two yrs ago before going and wow. Maverick was still backed up but that's bc Steel Vengeance opened in about an hour so everyone was basically in line for maverick. Got season passes (last year) and it's renewed for this year. Pretty excited
That's great! Enjoy and have a great time!
Im lucky enough to have this as my home park. I still haven't experienced everything. More than one day is a definite
You’d Gould do this for other large parks too. I’m thinking Carowinds, Six Flags Magic Mountain, and Six Flags Great Adventure.
Great ideas!Thank you for watching!
@@TP_Recommendations Loved the video as always!
How about one for Lagoon in Utah? That one's in the middle of nowhere.
If your going to the 1 in jersey the rides are great.but the clientele isn't your smacked in the middle of philadelphia and ny.in north jersey .
This was SO helpful, excellent video ! I hope to do this vacation some day 👍🏼
How much is the fast pass and fast pass + per person ?
That's great! Thank you! Honestly - I would just check their website since the prices change frequently :)
Eating outside the park.
Huron, Oh. Harbor Place, the Steak restaurant(forget the name), Pied Piper ice cream place in town(very inexpensive). View the sunset at the park near Harbor Place with Cedar Park in the distance. Golf at the 36-hole Thunderbird course($44 with a cart). Huron is a very nice little town.
Thank you bill! I appreciate it!
Thank you, trying to plan a 3 day, 2 night trip staying at Lighthouse Point with a pretty big group of friends
You will Love it!
@@TP_Recommendations Oh yeah for sure!
4:25 i had the same view supppeeerrr nice view!!!!!!!!!
Love every second of it!!
This helps so much I’m having my whole family watch it because this will really make our trips better! Thank you!
2:15 It's funny that you mention to add a fast lane plus to the budget and then show a line of Raptor that is at least 2 hours long (probably right in the morning too) and the Fast Lane Plus is over an hour as well for a ride that you could wait until later in the day for a shorter wait.
I’m going this Saturday. Late June. Yikes. Thankfully I paid for a Fast Pass Plus. Thanks for this video
The Thirsty Pony is a real good place to eat right off Cedar Point Dr.. Its conncted to the Holiday Inn Express complex. Also a lot more Hotel and eating options on Milan Road. Theres a Buffalo Wild Wings, Longhorn and Outback Steak Houses, Chick-Fil-A, Culvers, Cinamark Theater, Red Lobster just to name a few things along that road
Berardi’s Family Kitchen is a nice little restaurant with some bangin’ French fries
You said the magic word... French fries! haha!
Yum town!!
Top fries in the area! Always get them at rhe fairs.
You forget to mention that Steel Vengeance is only open for early access on Saturday & Sunday
In 2018 the third week of august had the most hours of operation despite relatively low crowds, but I went in late May instead because I also visited the widow of my dad's brother in Ann Arbour Michigan and she had a trip to Norway planned in August of that year. I arrived Monday afternoon at 4 and entered the park at 6pm when it closed at 8pm, and with those two hours of operation I got 10 coaster credits during that time, then spent Tuesday through Friday there. Only on Friday did I need to invest in a fast lane Plus, but the other days that was unnecessary. Consider: I live in Surrey; a suburb of Vancouver British Colombia, Canada; I didn't mind paying a little more $. Also: there are no flies to deal with in May like there are in August. That makes masks good at Cedar Point I guess, especially in August. LOL!
its been a few years since ive been to my favorite amusement park ever - i think i have only ever stayed "on campus" since i started going. started out at Hotel breakers, then tried Sandcastle suites which wasnt bad, but dont think i would stay anywhere but the cottages at Lighthouse point. LOVE LOVE LOVE those. yeah theyre a little farther out but if we dont feel like wasting time walking its a really short drive to the parking lot and then short walk to the park. and hell yes for the fast pass every time
Yeah lighthouse point is where it’s at! Thank you for watching!
My one and only trip to Cedar Point was back in 2017. I would literally love to visit this park again with you Brandon. You should have some type of fan lottery/contest🤙
Hey! That’s a fun idea ken! Thanks for watching! :)
@@TP_Recommendations or do a group trip with page followers - that way more people can participate
Quaker steak just off the main entrance road to CP is always good. There’s also an amazing family owned pizza/Italian restaurant like 5 minutes away from the express hotel. I ate at both of them in 2019 and I haven’t been back to CP since until this coming weekend because of Covid and I intend on eating at one of them on the day the park closes at 8.
Great tips! Thank you for sharing!
