Having been to Cedar Point many many times over the years, I've always enjoyed the park. The lines can get long, especially for the more popular coasters. This year they added ""expressway pass"" for the more popular rides. Get a hand stamp, come back within that 1hr time, and skip most of the line. Camp Snoopy gives the little ones something to do, and the ""parent pass"" lets groups with kids send a group through the line like normal, then after they finish, up to two adults can go in the exit and catch generally the next train. For the best times to go, I would say before the first week of June. The kids are still in school, keeping the waits down. Prices can be steep, but there are almost always some discounts around, either by getting tickets in advance, or through special offers or coupons.
Pros: World class coasters, Many things to do, Family friendly
Cons: Lines can get long
