I have really enjoyed bringing my kids here in the past. This visit was a bit disappointing. There were many rides that were closed. The whole waterpark was closed when the website states that its open until October. Out of the rides that were in operation, there were several that also closed an hour prior to closure of the park which reduced the options further. I bought cups that allowed you to refill as much as needed throughout the day. The drink machines were filled with bees making them difficult to access. They also closed all of the stands an hour prior to closing leaving my family and I with no access to drinks for the last hour of the park's operation on an 87 degree day.

This year my husband bought a season pass for the whole family, he paid $400 for the season that starts in May and ends at the end of October but this year when we got to the park they said our seasonal pass was expedited in Labor Day. What I know from 14 years ago we've been buying the that the season pass expired in October not in September, but they said I need to buy a ticket or upgrade the season pass. Why did I buy the season pass in advance, and I don't know if we will be able to use it for next summer or not , this is called a monopoly by the park for customers and for this illogical condition from great escape this year, it is impossible to think again about buying the season pass for next years . I don’t recommend this park for any body

My son went there today with his aunt and his cousin. They were very disappointed that all the water rides were closed and some of the other rides were too.one ride broke down while they were on it and seemed like forever to get them off it. Most of the food concession stands were also closed .not a good time for the kids for 39.99 plus 13.99 for the ordering fee..not to mention 20.00 for parking ..we are locals.we should be treated better than this ..will think twice before we go again ..😥

Why is the handy cap parking available to people who aren't?

dawn stevenson | Sep 11, 2020
Mel Gordon | Sep 11, 2020

One never knows why someone parks in a handicap spot. Some show no outward signs like my family. My husband has 6 toes amputated. Cannot see them. Then after a couple of hours his feet kill or me my knee just gives out and I get heart palpations sometimes.

Do they have hadicap stuff

K Jerome | Sep 12, 2019
Ella Hitchcock | Sep 12, 2019

I would not consider this a good place for the handicap. To start their handicap parking is across rt.9. There is a bridge to cross but it uphill then downhill on the other end. The park itself is all hills. They do not have shuttles from the parking lot . I would like to add that there is plenty of parking on the park side , but great escape choices to use it for people willing to pay more for parking and also the closer spots are used for their higher up employees. At one point there was handicap parking on that side also but they choose to move it.

Since you have to pay for a year, for the membership. Does the membership continue the next season, since the park closes during the winter months? Will your membership continue where it left off after the winter, or is the winter apart of the year?

Joshua VanAlstyne | Sep 11, 2021
John Fowler | Sep 11, 2021

Like Tammy Benson said. You pay all year long. The one thing I will say is it is not easy to cancel even after the year is up. Also if you're close enough to be going to great escape be sure to try six flags New England, it's included with your membership and so much better in every way except for how long it takes to get there.

Theres a high chance yes but also a slim chance no. They are supposed ti open end of july early august but who knows. Ive been there for the last like 2 weeks and they have done alot getting the park ready so most likely no you did not.

When is it going to reopen

Ginny Hall | Sep 11, 2020
Brian Turner | Sep 11, 2020

Current plan is to open at the end of July. Park is currently prep ping for that but cannot open until given the go ahead by the state.

How much does it cost for August?

Lynn Jackson | Sep 11, 2020
Jill Flinton | Sep 11, 2020

Tickets are sold by the day. If you want to go more than one or two days, you are better off getting a season pass.

Tickets are only good for one day. This dose not change of you arrive late. If you wish to return consider upgrading to the season pass. It would be cheaper then paying for 2 days admission.

Will the Looney Tunes characters ever return to the Great Escape? My kids refuse to go there unless Daffy Duck is there .

Rosemary Puig | Sep 12, 2019
Michael Coutermarsh | Sep 11, 2020

The chain has opted to remove the Looney Tunes and DC branding from the park. I have heard of no plans to bring them back. The park however dose have its own characters. Of they have to see the chracters and you have a season pass you could take a trip to Six Flags New England and the characters should be returning to the reflaged Darien Lake.

Can't see why they were not on less he bought 2 adult tickets and not 1 adult and 1 child ticket. But even then he would have to pay for preceded parking and probably a meal deal. My guess is the total is including admision, parking, and food.

Generally the answer is no. There is no outside food permited. If you have a young child in a driller you can get away with some items. I normally eat before entering the park and not have more then a snack at the park. Then eat after since they close early.
