I almost gave four stars, but only because it's a little pricey. We didn't have enough time to justify paying for the unlimited ride bands, which actually are reasonably priced. So we had to buy points to put on a card, which unfortunately didn't last very long.
But the rides themselves were wonderful. It was undoubtedly the highlight of the vacation for our 7 and 4 year olds, especially The Haunted House. The staff was also surprisingly pleasant, given the amount of people that they deal with.

Wow!!! Ocean City Maryland you have a gold mine in the new state of the art ferris wheel/light display at the inlet. The brand new ferris wheel at only $8 for more than 10 minutes in a fantastic fully enclosed large box/suite was awesome!!! None better. I felt like I was on top of the world. It's the tallest thing at the inlet. You can look down on the lighthouse, across the bay, as well as see out over the ocean. I recommend taking twice, once before the sun sets to view the ocean and after dark to see the lights that go on forever over the bay, down to Assateague, up into Delaware and beyond!! Best sights since the fireworks I saw from the fourth floor of Goldcoast hi-rise hotel on July 4th weekend. It has beautiful sights that rival those seen in the natural mountain views from Annapolis Rock. Thank you Trimper. Smart move!!!

Not sure how I've never been here before, but I was thoroughly impressed. Every staff member was so kind and helpful. There were larger rides outside, and beautiful antique looking rides inside for smaller children. There were little details everywhere like character covered trash cans and carnival paintings on the wall that made it feel like an old fair. I recommend the 2 hour unlimited pass and getting there right around opening. It was the perfect amount of time to enjoy the things we wanted and very reasonable pricing.
