Wow, you have a new fan today. This is such a great review of one of my favorite places.
Aw thank you! It was an amazing trip and we will be back to ride the rides and eat the food we didn't get to!
@@park4park592 Ill give you 10 cool Easter eggs.
1. Go to the anthracite museum to the left of Black Diamond. In the right side of that building is a knoebels history museum
2. Go towards the loaf of bread, stay to the right mostly and ride Kosmos Curves. Its one of the best Junior coasters you will ever ride.
3. There is a statue in the park which recreates Iwo Jima
4. Take a selfie on the covered bridge and dont forget a sharpie because its allowable to write your name on the beams. Some names are decades old. There are famous people who have signed it.
5. Look for flood markers near the giant birthday cake building. The park was nearly lost several times in recent memory and in distant memory.
6. In the haunted house. The upside down room used to zig zag and had psychedelic pictures and played music from a clock work orange, guests would tip their cart over and climb out and have dance parties. The park then made it the skull room but kids would take rings from the merry go round in there and break the mirrors. Eventually it was made into the upside down room. HOWEVER it is a hidden maintenance room in winter. One wall opens up and is a full museum and work shop that only staff gets to see.
7. The small stone building by Flying Turns sells fudge and its the best fudge you will ever eat.
8. There are actually two trains in the park.
9. There is a new ride laying on the ground just after the photo thing on gasoline alley.
10. The seating area in front of phoenix was once the parks parking lot until it became too popular and the park expanded.
Wow what a place! Nice to have all that sitting space. Make sure you are looking right into the camera. So much Scraming!! LOL Thank you for taking us!
We are fortunate to live about 45 minutes from Knoebel’s, so we go there as often as we can. I went there as a child, we took our children there, and now we take our grandchildren. My husband’s company usually has its annual picnic at Knoebel’s. It is by far the best park ever!
That's so cool! I would have loved to have that as my childhood park. I grew up going to a free-to-enter called Playland in NY but Knoebels blows that place out of the water. We can't wait to go back!
@@park4park592 when you do return to Knoebel’s, make sure to take a moment to go through the mining museum and the carousel museum. And the funnel cakes are amazing! They also acquired an old Bayern Curves ride that they are in the process of restoring (near the Skloosh). And the Scenic Skyway takes you up the mountain and back again, giving you amazing views of the park. Btw- if you go during the week, you can purchase an all-day ride pass!
Us too! Very fortunate to live in Norry so we can go anytime we want. So blessed.
Yes on its final hump the phoenix will disengage from the track by about 5 inches at the mid section of the train. You can hear it slam back in place. There is high speed footage slowed way down that discusses it on youtube here.
Oh man I knew it! I totally felt that. That's wild!
great first person roller coaster action
I just found this video in my feed and since I love Knoebels (courtesy of Jacob the Carpetbagger) and your video is exactly the kind I love but done in a warm, inviting, and inclusive way. I LOVE IT! I already LIKED, already SUBSCRIBED and next I'm going to go back and watch all of the ones I missed. THANK YOU for making this!!! :)
Oh man, thank you! That means so much! We absolutely loved Kenobels and will return! Thank you for the sub! There are plenty more fun trips ahead for the channel!
I laugh the same way on the roller coasters! 😆🤣 That was a wild ride! lol
Hahahaha excellent! Yeah this place has some choice coasters!
Great video! I live only a 1.5 hour drive away from Knoebels! LOVE this place! My favorite ride is the Flying Turns! So smooth it literally feels like you are flying!
Yessss flying turns is so unique! I loved it!
I worked Disney Attractions for 9 years. I too had to deal with guests during ride issues. I always tried to turn it into a fun experience for the guests. You did that when you put everyone on RUclips.
Aw that's awesome of you to say that! We are always willing to share the fun with everyone! 😁
You may Not know but The Black Diamond dark ride is the Old Original Golden Nugget dark ride from Wildwood NJ Original tracks and Cars added to Knoebels back in 2017 as the Wildwood sold most attractions on the pier because of money and old age rides that would cost a butt load of money to revamp.
I think someone just said that actually that's so crazy! I love stuff like that. I wonder if it was faster when it was golden nugget 🤔
Awesome amusement park. Been going every year for over 40 years. So lucky to have this place so close to home. Heading there tomorrow.
Oh man that's too cool! Have a potato cake for me! I miss them so much! Lol
Awesome review!
Thank you so much!
A truly one of a kind park in all the right ways. My mother and I went earlier this year. She's not the biggest coaster fan, but Flying Turns made her laugh in a way I have not heard in a long time.
Aw that's an awesome memory! Flying Turns is so unique I can see a coaster hater loving it lol.
I'm gonna get to go here in about another month, so I'm super excited.
Great video too. You absolutely did it justice.
Aw thank you so much! It was a great time and we will be back for sure!
If you don’t feel like you’re about to fly out of your seat on the Phoenix 3-4 times then you didn’t get the true experience lol (not kidding)
I believe it hahahaha it was a great ride
My home town park this place is awesome so glad you all got to visit and the food is amazing 😊😊😊
It's so cool that it's so close to you! We would go a lot more if it was closer but we will probably make another trip this year. Totally worth the road trip!
The ticks. never expire! It’s a wonderful place !! When I go through!!😊They have the food! The swimming pool is always 55 degrees!
They really do have THE food lol 😆 I wanna go back and do just a water day with all the slides and everything!
KNOEBLES IS THE BEST FAMILY FRIENDLY PARK IN PENNSYLVANIA 😁😁🤪🤪😀😀❤❤❤❤
Twister is the BEST wooden roller coaster and long compared to orhers!!♥️♥️♥️♥️😊😊😊😊
Love, love, love the brass rings!! Best merry go round❤❤❤
The black diamond was the golden nugget many years ago on hunts pier in wildwood nj and was one of my favorite rides I’ve never been to knoebles but it’s on my bucket list. Btw I just found this channel so far so good 👍👍👍👍
Wow there's so much love for the golden nugget! I had no idea about the transfer but that's so cool! Thank you for the feedback 😊
Cool video, dig the "Here Come The Mummies" shirt! 😄
Thank you! Love those mummies!
2nd row from the back is the magic seat on Phoenix.
😮 I'll remember that for next time, we love magic!
Been there a million times!!!!! My kids have grown up here as my sister in law lives 20 minutes away in Bloomsburg. I hope this place never changes!!!!
That's so cool! I wish we were closer!
I went a few weeks ago Phoenix was the highlight of my Knoebels trip
It's definitely the coolest wood coaster I've been on so far!
Nice mention of the picnic area. We do our kids birthday parties here because you can reserve a picnic area for free and bring everything you need. Or you can order their catering menu and they bring it to your picnic area. Free admission is a plus because anyone who isn’t interested in rides doesn’t have to pay an entry fee just to get in. This a a gem of a park.
That's so nice of them! We didn't know about the catering, I bet that is delicious!!!
This place looks insane!!!
It's totally worth the trip!
The Black Diamond was originally named The Golden Nugget and was on Hunt's Pier in Wildwood, NJ built in 1960. It was sold in 2009 to Knoebels who rethemed it to coal mining.
Oooo interesting! Was it faster when it was Golden Nugget??
@@park4park592 A little faster and longer from what I remember. On the golden nugget you came out on the roof for a period of time also. Search for "golden nugget wildwood nj", there are ride through videos on youtube.
The upper parts of the ride were also open to the elements. They were enclosed with the relocation to Knoebels.
My 1st time there in 2021 I had a blast and I plan on going back in the near future! I hope it will be easier to be found!
Definitely a special place and worth multiple visits! I heard Halloween time is really fun there too!
👍They do have all day wrist bands on weekdays only. Which attractions did you like the best and is it a place you would consider for a revisit?
Oh yeah I heard about the weekday wrist band I love that! Flying Turns was my favorite and by far most unique ride! We will definitely be back to Knoebels for a longer stay probably a water day and a ride day! And to try out the rest of the food lol
Yes during the week:)
Wooooo!!!
If you like spicy food I Highly recommend the Cajun chicken sandwich at knoebels its delicious.
I would also recommend riding the kosmotron ride its quite a fun and unique indoor spinning ride accompanied by a laser light show.
Ooooo those will go on the list for next time!! Thank you! 😁
It took 7 years to build and to open!
You need to go back in October for hallow fest on weekends. They decorate they park Halloween themed really nice. Can also go to Weis markets courtesy desk to get tickets at discount price
I keep hearing it's great for Halloween! Do they start early in September?
Not sure I forget can probably Google there web page for dates when it starts they also have it where you can drive threw and see Christmas lights threw part of park and campground area
Oh, man. This is going to be a cool watch.
I hope it was! 😁😁
Great place! Great Food. I sometimes just go for the food
Oh jeez I would do the same thing too if I was closer but we're like 3 hours away so we will probably always make a day out of it lol
As Dick Knoebel once said..."The food better be good...I eat here every day!"
Omg great quote and philosophy lol might as well eat good! We can't wait to go back and eat everything else!
Every time I go to knoebles good thing I only live 40 minutes away
@@user-pn4ti8mi9h oh nice! I'm jealous you live so close!
You missed the bumper cars
We missed a lot lol but we will definitely be back for the rest!
I've never been here but my sister has and ice heard so many food things about this park and I hear the food prices are reasonable!! Hope to visit one day!
Highly recommend visiting! It was such a nice day! Totally worth the trip!
wasnt there a freddy krueger mural at one of the stores it was set up so dope you would walk in and out of the store but it was freddys mouth
No way really??? I heard halloween is great there so I totally believe that!
I know the original owners sold it but im pretty sure the pizza there is still really good.
Oh my that will go on the food list for next time!!
🤷♀️sum other deliciousness 😅 yessir 🤣👌
we cant wait to go back and try everything else lol
A lot of the rides look choppy, like they would hurt your neck. Is this true?
I wouldn't say any of the rides that we went on actually hurt, but they are fast and older. If you already have a neck injury I wouldn't go for a coaster until it's healed but there are plenty of other slow rides where you wouldn't have to brace yourself.
Great video of a not-so-great park.
Thank you! I'm sorry you don't like the park. What your favorite? I'm sure we will get to it eventually!
@@park4park592 it’s not bad. It depends on when you go. You should try Idlewild unless you have already.
Looks like Jack Black with painted nails lol
Hahahaha that's high praise!
Dude, if you’re gonna put your fingernails in front of the camera, at least paint them up lol
Hahahahaha caught me slacking on that one.
Whats Scraming?
It is not a family friendly park. We took our handicap family member. At first they helped us to get him on the rollercoasters but then we took him to their bobsled ride where they made him stand there for over 25 minutes and there was no one on the other side to get on the ride. And we weren't alone there was a mom who had been waiting to put her daughter on it. People were jumping over line but nothing was said for all the cutting. I felt so sorry for the mother,I turned and left. E tried to talk to the lady running the ride and she was very nasty to us. The next day I tried to tell them how we were treated at the park. They didn't even apologize, they just said that they refuse to give us tickets. I never even asked for tickets. I will NEVER take any of my family members to this sad park. I even got others who have disabled children now won't take their kids to this park. When in this world does it take just to be kind. Thank you for the people who did help us.
Wow I'm so sorry was that all in one day? I heard some days is can get so packed because it's popular. I hate it when people skip lines that happened at our lat trip to Hersheypark boardwalk it was multiple school trips and nobody did a thing about it. Some people are just rude 😕
