Honestly, unless you have teenagers, it's not that fun for kids simply because the lines are so long that they get bored and lose interest. The newest coasters will likely have a 3 hour wait. My friend's 13 year old boys went there in July. From open to close they rode 3 coasters due to the line length. If you have younger kids, it might be better to find a smaller more local park. It's just so busy.

We actually take a longer trip to a different park just because the kids only have to wait 30 minutes, or in some cases, not at all to get on a ride.

We went last year right after 4th of july and surprisingly it was not crowded. We were there from sun. through wed. We left on thurs. a.m. What i have heard is that other than holidays, thurs-sun are the busy days.

I agree, We did a mid summer, Sunday through Wed stay. Stayed at Light House Point some years ago, lines at the park were not to bad.
Plus being able to get in the park 1 hr earlier than the day trip people, we were able to do all the most popular rides.
