Lake compounce is great because it is so close and convenient to get to. The lines are also not as bad as larger amusement parks. The rides are pretty decent and have all the standards plus a nice wooden roller coaster and some steel ones. There is also a nice water park to visit. Oh yea and free soda all day. So the price is better, the rides aren't as flashy but it's a nice place to go and hang out with your friends for a day when the weather is nice.
