This is a nice place to come with the family. It's clean and has enough rides and shows to keep you entertained for the day. Knott's has some educational aspects about it as well. We saw a fantastic Native American dance and panned for gold! It's not Disneyland but then again, it's not as expensive either. The shops and food inside the park however, is just as pricey. The parking is a little tricky so drive slowly.

Knott's Farm Bakery has awesome pies and other bakery goods. They are freshly made. I love the berry pies the best. A great selection to choose from. Friendly staff.

So, sure this is a fun place- not as cool as Disneyland, not as many great rides as Six Flags...but the coolest thing about this place is when it turns in to Knott's Scary Farm, which makes the whole thing entirely worth it. Kind of a one time thing, but definitely something to check out if you've never been.

My 12 year old daughter just got back from Knotts yesterday where she attended a birthday party for one of her class mates. The only thing she could talk about were all the strange people that she saw there and how they scarred her.. She said the place was full of "goth" people and kids with excessive amounts of piercings and tattoos, and it made her feel uncomfortable. She was particularly scared of one goth kid who had white contacts in his eyes ...... She also said that the staff wasn't very friendly... She made the comment "It's no Disneyland". As a parent, I don't want my kids put into an environment that makes them feel uncomfortable or presents a bad influence on them. I'm sure we'll never go to Knotts again and I'll recommend to the school districts that they continue to go the Disney for their school outtings....... As it appears that Knotts is looking at Magic Mountain as a business model instead of raising it's standards to that of Disney.. Pros: It's close to those who live in O.C. Cons: Dirty, unfriendly staff, don't expect Disneyland......

In the "Land of Disney", I have to say that my favorite theme park is actually Knott's. As a native Angeleno, I've been visiting Knott's for decades. It's changed a lot over the years (like all the theme parks), but they've held onto many of the things I love about this park. The old western town...the midway games...and it's still one of the few places I can get a truly mouth-puckering pickle right out of a huge wooden barrel. Of course, these days they are famous for their Halloween Haunt, but throughout the rest of the year, it's still fun. Of course, there's always fried chicken and boysenberry syrup!! Cons: pricey admission

I think it's ridiculous how they oversell the Knotts Scary Farm event. Couldn't even get close enough to tell you if it sucked or not. I'm sure once we got in the lines would be too long and the crowds too frustrating to even enjoy ourselves. After dropping $46 per ticket, we decided to turn around and come home...drink some beer and just watch scary movies instead. Pros: Nada Cons: Just plain crowded. Expect to sit in traffic for hours and forget about finding parking

We went to the Halloween Haunt the night before Halloween and it was a big disappointment. The park was too overcrowed to enjoy, it was an effort just walking around trying to avoid walking into people. The lines to any of the decent rides/mazes were way too long for any sane person to stand in. The extremely strict security checks were a sign of what was to come inside, mostly a young crowd of 'punks'...not a good vibe at all... Pros: Inventive attractions Cons: Too crowded
