Whats not to love. A beautiful restored (by the owners of a lumber company) masterpiece of a woodie. Probably the ultimate proof that bigger isnt better. It looks like a mundane little rollercoaster in this absolutely gorgeous century old family owned park. But thats part of the beauty of it, the deception. the phoenix is the most aptly named ride in existance. No theming necessary. airtime is almost on a par with the Comet at GE and the drops are deceptively powerful. the ride from lift hill crest to station is just over a minute, but depending if you love coasters or was dragged on by a true believer, its the shortest or longest minute of your life. Recommended for those who love to fly. Six flags will never duplicate tyhis experience. Itd take tehm over a hundred years just to grow the shade trees! This park is well worth the trip from anywhere. Bring the kiddies and introduce them to a park that is still run like in the golden age.
No POP, you buy tickets for each ride. A side benefit is less lines everywhere.
BTW Knoebels operates the hands down best carousel in existance! Grab the brass ring!
