One Last Look Inside Geauga Lake Park Before Demolition (FOUND RIDES)

- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- Hey ya'll tonight I'm checking out Geauga Lake Park, an abandoned amusment park located in Aurora, Ohio. I actually visited this park when I was younger and when the park was still operating, so this explore was pretty nostalgic for me. Also I explored/filmed the waterpark side of the lake which was one of the first videos on my channel, you can watch that here. • EXPLORING ABANDONED SE...
I honestly don't know why I didn't explore this side of the park sooner, It was also under strict supervision and the cops kept a close eye on the property, so I never wanted to risk it. Although, recently when the news broke that they'd be razing the entire property where the park sat, and turning it into a suburban neighborhood, I immediately knew I wanted to get inside and get one last video for all of you that enjoyed this park just like I did as a kid. Everyone online has said for years that nothing at all remains at the park, or at least since they demolished the front entrance and removed the big dipper in around 2016. So I never had a lot of motivation to really risk exploring it. But that is simply not true, although I too expected to find nothing inside this old park, we definitely found WAY more than we expected, including old walk ways, rollercoaster platforms, rollercoaster railing/track and even an old rollercoaster cart. This was an absolutely awesome explore and I've been excited to share this one with you, Enjoy.
Some clips from when the park was open are sampled from “This Is…” with permission from John Oblender. Big thank you to him and his friends for capturing this amazing footage while the park was still open. Link to this great video is here; • This Is Geauga Lake - ...

I Hope you enjoyed this episode! See you all next week!
less then 3 hours left for the coaster car, current high bid is 6,000. Money going to charity. I think that would make a cool lawn ornament.
That is so sweet!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Went for 6100 bucks. Ngl was thinking about buying it
Charity is cool for the coaster car I hope that someone that has a cool pastime memory of the time they rode it gets it !!!!
I wanna see a video of someone turning one of these old coaster cars into a crazy 4-seater go-kart.
@@theghostfileswhat’s the name of the song in the beginning?? I really enjoyed it, really good for the intro, showing old videos of the park when it was open
ugh this is so sad, people don't know just how great this park was.
One thing I miss about this park is that unlike cedar point which had tons of thrills this park had most of the thrills you didn't have to stand in line for three damn hours to ride a coaster 😢
That’s the reason it closed, long lines means the park has the money to survive
That’s why it’s closed! Ha
They dumped so much money into it on stuff it had to be that way. It was a nice and simple park before six flags tried to turn it into more than it needed to be.
What is the worst thing about shutting it down is they never gave us one last chance to go to the park. There was no warning. They just shut it down.
I hated cedar fair for that. It wasn't on them really though. Six Flags doomed Geauga Lake as soon as they bought it. The area just does not have the infrastructure to support such a large park.
Man 🥹
That’s where Cedar Fair really dropped the ball
I agree
Ride Dominator at KD Virginia.
I miss Geagua Lake. I went there a few times when I was younger. I'm 39 years old now and I never forget that place at all. This is so sad what happened to this place. Last time I went was back in the summer of 2006. It was fun riding the rides there and going swimming there. R.I.P. Geagua Lake 1887 - 2007. We all miss you and always will.
Raging Wolf Bob in the 90s will forever be one of the greatest memories of my youth.
This was a BEAUTIFUL park and one of the best waterparks I'd ever been to. Shame on Cedar Fair for what they did to it.
Six Flags ran it into the ground with their debt problems and sealed its fate. Cedar Fair just salvaged what was left (relocated some coasters and attempted to run the waterpark)
Six Flags is at fault, not Cedar Fair. CF put it out of its misery!
no cf started tearing it apart first year they owned it tore out 3 coasters
@@bethpedone8771That is not true. Those who had access to 'the books' can tell you this park WAS making money and turning a profit. By having Cedar Point, Geauga Lake Park and Kings Island, they had a lock in the Ohio market, so they WERE making money.
@@makaylynn07 CF was just trying to make it feasible for the market that it served. It was located close enough to both Cedar Point and King's Island that there was no way it would survive as a theme park. CF moved some coasters and tried to keep the remaining rides as long as they could.
Blaming CF for 6F's problems is like blaming the doctor for the patient's heart attack.
I used to go there every year growing up. My aunt's company had their annual picnic there. Lots of fond memories. It was very sad watching this.
I grew up going here EVERY year. I still cry.
This brings back fond memories when I was a kid. My dad, who worked at Rubbermaid use to have company picnics and enjoyed the rides and entertainment at Geauga Lake
Those coaster tracks are from Raging Wolf Bobs. Seeing them torn apart and laid out like that is heartwrenching. When you found them I felt like someone punched me in the gut. It's like coming home to your house bruned down.
The tracks were from the Big Dipper, not the Raging Wolf Bob's, whose storage and transfer track was behind the station.
@@timothykaczmarek5871 I mean, at this point where things were or weren't stored is irrelevant. The Big Dipper's storage certainly wasn't next to a path down by Grizzly Run (which is right next to where the Wolf Bobs were, hence my confusion). Having said that though, looking back at the colors of the stations, yeah, you're right, that was from the Big Dipper.
@VonSnootingham And being a Rides Manager at Geauga Lake Park, fortunate enough to have operated every ride in the park, except for the Ferris Wheel, Black Widow, and Gold Rush, seeing this video and everything else after the park was MURDERED, is STILL very sad to see. Such a TERRIFIC PARK, and now all we have is a battlefield looking plot of land, where millions of families, people and employees had a WONDERFUL PLACE at Geauga Lake Park.
That was my childhood. I spent many summer days and nights there. It will forever be in my memories thanks for the little flash back.
This place was such a big part of my childhood 😢 sea world I'd go every summer..
Man it's always such a bummer to see what became of Geauga Lake/Six Flags. Loved this place in my youth.
This is where I spent my childhood ... I hate that it closed. It was one of the best!
Agreed!!!
Great times there. I really miss it. I guess amusement parks just faded out over time.
From the 70s to the 90s it was great fun to go to Geauga Lake, Conneaut Lake, Cedar Point, and Waldameer Parks. Sad. I miss my youth
Seeing the giant Grizzly Run sign made my heart hurt. I loved that place so much. I remember going there right after Grizzly Run was opened and the park was buzzing. So much fun. Geauga Lake and Sea World will never be forgotten.
Same here... I can still remember walking in that exact area going on Grizzly Run and the Raging Wolf Bobs was just past that wall kind of tucked away from everything else.. such good memories.
I thought I didn't care about Geagua Lake anymore after Big Dipper got torn down, but to my surprise I still care and this really made me tear up. I don't know if I could emotionally handle seeing this being a roller coaster nerd, this isn't Cascade Park, Shady Grove, or Rainbow Gardens that I'm way too young to have memories of (to name a few former amusement parks I've been to the site of) or like Williams Grove where I have (perhaps delusional) sense of hope seeing the coaster still standing.
I am glad you enjoyed this one🙌🏻 thank you for the kind comment
I’m from Sydney Australia. Wonderland Sydney was amazing. The original guy who built the park in 85 sold it in 94 to a amusement company. (Chinese based developer) and they ran it down into the ground effectively bankrupting it. They tore it down and now it’s a industrial area. Worth more for the land than a theme park.
This was a bit different imo , they closed it to close the competition, even if it was no longer competition.. the big dipper was built in 1925 iirc.
Cedar fair didn't put anything new into the park, they shifted the water park area, and most of the children's rides to the sea world side, and left the old water park, and rainbow island I think it was called, just blocked off but visible. The only plan they had for this park was to close it. Especially after they bought the paramount parks.
Makes you realize how fast time goes by.
So true😔
This was one of the best amusement parks I've been to. The bumper cars were faster than most and the wave pool was awesome! We went in the 80s. Thanks for sharing.
That’s awesome!!! Thanks so much for the comment. I’m glad you enjoyed 👍🏻
The giant concrete wall with the bear on it was from Grizzly Run, a water rapids ride. To my knowledge, they're actually preserving the wall for the future housing neighborhood.
Also, the loading platform you saw around 15:15 is from Big Dipper, a wooden coaster.
My guess was raging wolf bobs, being that it's way back there but you're right. I remember the storage track being on the loading platform, I wonder how it got way back there.
@@rucray7870 that was my first guess too, but I didn't remember Raging Wolf Bobs having side-by-side track like that on the loading platform. I ended up watching some old RUclips videos of the rides. I could see the side-by-side track on the loading platform in Psyclonesteve2013's Big Dipper 1999 video. I also just found Drone Ohio's video. At around 1:02, you can see the loading platform in 2016, 2 days before the ride was dismantled. ruclips.net/video/DmsMLOL6Fc0/видео.htmlsi=0sXHVl4QJbrx80QY&t=62
@@evian9999 remember when big dipper had that manual brake , and the ride ops had to pull that big lever , that was crazy. I worked at the park one summer, and was ride op for bumper cars double loop and the carousel. I wonder why they would update the brake system, but keep the old lock mech on double loop
@@rucray7870 I forgot about the manual brake! Did they get rid of that after Six Flags bought them?
Other than a few small kiddie coasters, Big Dipper was officially the first roller coaster I ever rode! Double Loop was the first up-side-down coaster I ever rode too!
Double Loop was by Arrow Development and that company manufactured that ride, so parts were not available anymore. I worked at Geauga Lake Park for 3 seasons. To see it at the auction was worse than going to a funeral it was so sad to see. I ran every ride there except for the Gold Rush, Ferris Wheel and Black Widow. To see all the rides I operated gone was too much to handle 😢 This park NEVER should have been closed. And shame on Aurora and Bainbridge for doing SHIT to try and save it.
Nothing ever lasts forever and Geauga lake was my home park which when I saw it was gonna close permanently it broke my heart
The Thunderhawk ride is still around! It was moved up to Michigan's Adventure. I instantly recognized it when you showed it.
It's a standard Vekoma SLC. There are 27 of them. But yeah, that one's at MiA now.
I"m sad that it's gone but I'm glad they're clearing it out finally.
Heartbreaking. As a child, I loved and watched Idora go under, and as a teen, we always went to Geauga Lake every summer on church picnics. I was lucky enough to take my young sons to Geauga, before Six Flags destroyed it.
Place was fantastic so much fun not crazy overpriced either so much fun it's so sad
That fake boat you see around 14:26 used to be in hooks lagoon water park! I remember for sure being like 5 and playing on it!
Thank you! Remembered it being in a pirate-themed kid's water park but could not recall the name... I think it was like a small water slides IIRC
@@DKCGamerGirl it also was moved around to the “turtle beach” beach area at one time too!
@sfsgcsvxcv Thank you so much! I think it was also at Turtle Beach I'm recalling it from then, as I played there a lot as a kid!
Crazy to think that in 2001 their rides were a feature on TV shows and six years later the park was closed
I'm pretty sure Cedar Fair bought them to close their near by competition down
@@behrens97 thats exactly what they did
@@behrens97 I worked at CP at the time and I can tell you that everyone in management were really excited to have the park, not to tear it down. There were some insurmountable challenges with the park though.
Under Six Flags, G.L. expanded to be too big for it's own good. The park simply couldn't generate the revenue to support operating all those rides
I can remember when they open the first coaster to do a loop.
Great episode. Could never ride the coaster. To scared 😂 seems like all the smaller amusement parks are closing. Was cool that they are giving you a chance to buy a piece of amusement park history
Thank you so much Dan!! And yes is was a pretty cool experience to see!
It wasn't a small park it was bigger than Cedar Point!
Damn this is why 80s kicked azz!!! You didnt know nothing BUT FUN AND GOOD TIME!!! Born in 1980 so, you cant tell me ISH. Loved that amusement park!!
What a great video and awesome experience. Thank you for uploading, just discovered your channel can’t wait to dive into it.
Thank you so much!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed this one. I hope you like some of the other stuff I have out!!
WOW!!! They really stripped that land clean of everything!!!!
The fact I have ridden two coasters from this park is amazing.
I was born in Ashtabula . I live in North Carolina now. but Myself and my family used to take an entire three day vacation in the 70's. we would get a motel near the parks and do both Sea World , and Geauga lake during the weekend. .
Myself and a bunch of High School Buddies, the weekend after High school Graduation from the now defunct Ashtabula High School , all went together to Geauga lake park in celebration of graduation on one last summer fling before going off our separate ways in life.
What Memories they were. Great times with good friends.
Alas , nothing lasts for ever but the memories and ghosts of the past.
I went to King’s Dominion a couple weeks ago and rode Dominator. Glad this great coaster has been given new life from Geagua Lake and continues to provide enjoyment for many!
Agree
It was not summer unless you went to Geauga Lake. Long before Six Flags bought it and ruined it. The Big Dipper was my first coaster and I rode it every year. I went the last week before they closed it down for what we thought was for the season. And a week later we find out that it was the last time ever to go again. I remember the Big Dipper was the last thing standing, and just like that it was gone.
Just surreal with the old ads playing alongside the degredation. Great, great video. Thank you!
15:21 if im not mistaken indo believe this tracks were feom a rollercoaster called THE RAGING WOLF BOB it was an all wooden coaster ... I remember the summer season of '07 the ride was up and running till june(i believe) there was a safety issue so they closed the ride down for maintenance but unfortunately never got to reopen due to the park closing that summer season 😢 i loved that coaster growing up ive got pictures of geauga lake in the park and picnic area ❤
Wow ,the more the parks like c. point buy up the smaller parks the less diverse and alternate places there are for k8ds and families to go. They buy them up to play end-game with them so their park will prosper. And what they really do is take away the places that made memories for us that experienced those parks.
I used to go here every summer as a kid and young teen with my best friend, who has since passed away. Thank you for filming this! That small wall with the bear carving at the end looks like part of the decorations for Grizzly Run. I have fond memories of that ride when it was brand new! The little boat I believe was a slide in one of the pirate-themed kid's areas. I highly recognize it, but can't quite place it...
Dude Awesome video so sad Cedar Fair closed this historic amusement park down !
They sold it to six flags then six flags went bankrupt and sea world got the park
great vide dude. Really well done. The emotion of lost opportunities and great memories was captured well.
Thank you so so much! That was the vibe I was going for, so I really appreciate that comment!!! I’m also very glad you enjoyed🤩
I went there every single year as a kid on a company picnic, then took my kids. It was a highlight of the year, Cedar Point was a once every so often, But Geauga Lake was an every year event. it's really to bad.... Good times....
I'm very sad to see it all gone. When I was a kid growing up in the 1960's, and I lived there in Ohio, my family we went every year to Geauga Lake. They had my dad's shop picnic General Electric there, too. They had a huge pinball arcade and I was (or still am) a devoted pinball player
Thank you so much for your video. I grew up in mentor ohio and spent many summer days growing up at Geauga lake water park. I must confess if i wanted to ride coasters cedar pointe is where i went but ive never been to a water park since that could touch Geauga lake.
Great video! I was here every year since I was a kid in the late 80s up until 2001. I used to go to Sea World with my family and Geauga Lake. Then when Six Flags bought it. Big part of growing up. Definitely agree it is so sad to see if like this. So many memories there.
my parents surprised me with the one and only vacation we ever went on back in 2005 after i got out of 3rd grade. I remember Beaver Town and standing on tippy toes to make myself taller so i could drive the go karts. (i was still too short) Getting mine and my sibling caricatures drawn. the log ride.....I miss this place and wish i could have had the chance to experience those things again... RIP Geauga Lake..
That was grizzley run you guys were seeing, it was a river rapid ride not a race track.The loading track based on the red paint was the big dipper coaster. Im thinking that opem field im thinking that was where the raging wolf bobs, i could be wrong. I was there 20 years ago, its changed a little. This place was a huge part of my childhood in the 80s and early 90s it still suck all these years later that is gone.
So many memories over the years, I still miss it. I live a few minutes away and pass it several times a week, even though nothing is there I still always look that way. It's good to see the land is going to get used though, hopefully they pay homage to the park when the new stuff goes up.
I'm almost positive that kids' waterslide boat you stood on was the same one my son swore on when he was really little lol, he was super mad that his new swimming trunks wouldn't slide on it. oh man, that's great, thanks for the video!
Sadly, I’m too young to have ever been to the park. My parents did, though. They had season passes and would go at any open chance. Such a shame that this place closed, it would’ve been my home park
I was like 8 yrs when this closed (I wasn’t into roller coasters back then) 😢
Yeah, this is INSANE! You found roller coaster tracks at an old amusement park, absolutely insane I say!
Hell yeah 🤝😎
That was so effin sad. How many memories, fun times. That was my favorite place on this earth. I'm 35 years old and I'm in tears missing batman night flight and the villain 😢😢😢😢
Such fond memories. My first time here was 1975 I was six yrs old. I remember listening to todays classic when it was brand new on the way there.. eagles doobie brothers steely dan..etc. slept on the way home.🙂Memories you cherish forever.
As for the wall with the bear on it. It was Grizzly Run it was a water style coster that was very popular on the super hot days.
I went on a trip in 2005 and we got Cedar Fair passes and went to a few of the parks. We made a stop and Geauga Lake and I have a shirt I got there. I was a huge coaster nerd at the time. I'm not quite as big on theme parks and coasters as I was then and I'm sure there are a few other places/rides that have come and gone that I have missed out on, but I do thinks its pretty cool that I got to go there and super weird to see how there is nothing left. Sad its gone, it would be pretty cool to have a house where a floorless B&M coaster once sat though.
7:44 I remember being there as a kid in the 60's, my mom and aunt would talk about how much the park had changed since they were kids, so yes very sad, I grew up on a small farm in Royalton and that once a year trip to Geauga Lake was the highlight of every year, I cried like a baby when they tore it down.
I remember this place. Parents took us there a few times in the 70's
Never was able to go here, but it's going to be so sad to see this go for good. I wish Cedar Fair didn't abandon it.
Me too):
I don’t blame CF. Blame Six Flags for selling the park so cheap. CF’s decision to ship coasters to other parks was reasonable.
@@FameyFamousBy all accounts Cedar Fair shouldn’t have been able to have a monopoly over all of the major parks in Ohio.
@@scottnelson9 I live in southeast Michigan. Cedar Point is my home park. I'm not happy that Cedar Fair owns and neglects my second closest park, Michigan's Adventure. Who can block the big chains from buying regional parks that should compete?
@@FameyFamous I don’t really know, but I do know there are laws about monopolies. The whole thing seemed suspicious, but trust we are taking care of Dominator in Virginia. 😉
Many childhood memories. Thanks for going and posting.
Of course!! Glad you enjoyed
I grew up at this park so many memories with my family here so sad to see it gone 😢❤🙏
Such a great video! I own a part from Firehawk, originally X-flight, and will cherish it forever
Thank you, That means a lot!! And that is seriously beyond cool!!! Hold on to it for forever🙏🏻
Great video. You’ve done well. Nicely edited.
Wow that’s crazy. I was really young when I went here in the late 1980’s early 1990’s. Way before cedar fair bought it.
Used to take vacation there and sea world.
That’s awesome!!! Must’ve been some great memories 🙌🏻
@@theghostfiles yes some awesome memories. I think they used to have you know flyers in the park that would show where everything was not like looking on the phone. I’ll have to dig into my archives to see if I can find any.
It is kinda nice that nature took back over, I always think that looks cool
I am so glad i got to experience Geauga Lake one time before it was gone. Such a great park and a damn shame Cedar Fair closed and destroyed it.
Six Flags destroyed it. CF tried to save it and failed.
I remember the park pre six flags, when sea world wasn’t connected, when they renamed six flags, then came back to geauga lake, went to this park twice a summer, from PA, still miss it
This brought up so many memories for me. Thank you so much for this video. The best parts of my childhood were spent here. I’ve grown to love cedar point…however Geauga Lake/Six Flags/Worlds of Adventure/the “sea world side” will always be sweet memories for me and it’s so sad they let it go. It was a really unique place. It felt like vacation to me as a child. I’ll always enjoy looking back on those memories, and your video helps that.
That's awesome you got to visit. I really miss this park. My oldest 2 practically grew up here❤
As Geauga lake is only a short30 minutes away from me this makes me sad
Yeah me 2 lots of good memories as a kid , growing up had season pass parents used drop you off pick ya back up at closing .
Thank you for this video. There's not much left, that's for sure. When i first started going, they had a ski lift that went over the park, and Geauga Dog. But one of the last times i went Serial Thriller was the newest attraction, and you could ride it to your hearts content as the line was short. One gentleman had a shirt that stated the thousands of times he rode the coaster. I hope they gave him a free bag of them delicious fries😋 for his effort or something. Again thanks, kinda harsh seeing this iconic park thrown down in this way.
I currently live literally a bike ride away from where geauga lake used to be. could have biked there every day with my friends. if only.
I think the track remains at 15:15 might be the platform from the Raging Wolf Bobs Coaster. That coaster was towards the back of the park, well back left, where the Grizzly Run was. Spent some time at that park over the years.
I did a job for a well off couple. They had a bunch of umbrellas they got from the auction at Geauga Lake and was nice enough to give me one. It has Geauga Lake and Coca Cola on it. It’s beautiful. I miss Geauga Lake.
I'd love to see several enthusiasts come up with a few models of what Geauga Lake could be if Cedar Fair never closed it both before and after six flags tried giving it too many steroids beyond what the area could support.
😢 miss this place so much.
The kids now will never know how much more fun geauga lake is than cedar point
Was last there around 1990. So sad it’s gone.
Thank you for doing this video. It brings back a lot of memories when me and my wife too our daughter their. Thank you again. 😎👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻✌🏻
Recently had a job at the company I currently work at that involved us going to the housing development that sits right next to the old WildWaterKingdom parkinglot (seen at 5:38). While I mainly got to experience the waterpark growing up, I still miss both sides and was nearly sheading a tear every time Id pass
Ha! Mind eraser ! I forgot all about that! I rode all those twisters so many times I get em mixed up. I just remember x flight was green I think lol & of course you never forgot Superman
I still have the map brochure
when you first enter the park map from when it was Six Flags, I miss going there every summer when I was a kid for my mom and dad work family days
The double loop car went for 6100 bones. Ngl was thinking on getting it as that arrow looper trains are so sleek
Watching from the UK, great video and sad to see, never been to that park, and if it weren't for RUclips i would never have heard of most of these American parks (most British people only know Disneyworld and Universal!).
Thank you so much🙌🏻I’m so glad to be sharing with you some history of a great American park! Cheers!
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
The Big Dipper should have been a historic land mark. .
I forgot how much Cedar Point and Geauga Lake soiled us. I never thought Disney was that special as the ad said, you could ride great rides at Geauga for $10.
Used to go there ALLLLL the time as a kid (six flags/ sea world included) and it’s insane to see that these places are literally nothing now🥹🥲
I went to see this place yesterday and there isn’t a lot left but I was lucky to see what I did. Also by posting your video anyone could report you or someone could see it and charge you. Be careful out there exploring. I used my drone to do what you did on foot so I couldn’t be charged with trespassing as I stayed on public road.
I was so sad when they closed this park. I’m from Pittsburgh and have fond memories coming here with my family. We did geuaga lake, sea world, and cedar point one weekend every summer for as long as I can remember. Mind eraser was my first upside down coaster I was probably 7 or 8 and terrified😂
In Toledo Ohio. Only visit to that park and it was a fun day … we still got cedar point at least
the big thing at 15:00 was the marker for the raging wolf bobs coaster. A GREAT wooden coaster
Great video! Sad to see that park demolished.
I was lucky enough to visit this park during a theme park review trip
That’s sweet!
What a crime in closing a 100+ year old park with a classic 1920’s woodie
Miss it here in Ohio was a huge part of our lives family once a year
Geauga Lake Park had a smaller coaster ride called "The Mouse" which was just as much fun as the taller coaster. Brings back fond childhood memories. I thought I remembered someone converting one of the rides into a vehicle that was street legal.
Another great attraction..down the tubes
Spent a lot of time both at Sea World and Geauga Lake when I was a kid. Sad to see it gone.
