It's a cool place to go to if you're local and get a season pass. Nice water park and some rides mostly for kids. I purchased a season ticket for around $100. With the season ticket you get 2 free tickets and 2 half off tickets for friends. Personally I would never pay the $45 admission fee for a one time visit. $15 would be about where I'd draw the line for bang for your buck. The big pro to this water park vs others is that it has a camp site if you're coming in an RV and also has picnic sites right around the whole park. Excellent choice if you have large groups and people that don't necessarily care for the park portion. They can set up camp, cook out and hang out while the kids soak up the park. Also can save a lot of money that way by not having to purchase food at the park itself. Just walk out to where the rest of your family is grilling out, eat and head right back. Drinks and food inside are fairly priced, considering resort prices but the wait can be long at times. Staff is young but well trained from my experience so far. 4 and a half stars from me right now. I'll update as I go more

Beech Bend isn't a bad park, but it's definitely fallen off from when I considered it a five-star local park. Let's start with the rides. Beech Bend is mostly populated by a large variety of carnival style flat rides, ranging from a swinging ship, to a classic tilt o whirl, to the newer Vortex and drop tower rides. There are three notable coasters - a very rough wood coaster, the Kentucky Rumbler, which has gotten considerably more rough in the last few years despite an excellent layout, a steel spinning wild mouse coaster, and a spinning kiddie coaster. Not bad, not great. Given some maintenance and retooling, the Rumbler might become a great coaster again. There are a great selection of water slides if that's your thing. Now for amenities. Parking is free. Drinks were free in years past, but are now $3.50 for a 20 ounce drink (very disappointing). A burger runs 6.50, chicken strips and fries 10. Beech Bend Hall, which was previously a decently well supplied arcade, is now empty but for five claw machines and three carnival games. Ironic given that the walls still have skee-ball and arcade signs. There are few places to cool down besides the water park, and little shade. I cannot recommend Beech Bend during the heat of the summer for those reasons. If unlimited free sodas return, then we'll talk.

Attended No Prep Kings 2022 here. Pretty decent track. General admission seating is limited and first come first serve. No shade for those seats. Pit side is wooden bleachers with no aisles, but people were very friendly and helped everyone up and down. Watch out for the unlimited lemonade cups. That booth is EXPENSIVE. $20 per lemonade (free refills all day for 1 day) but the food items are $20 a piece too, no refills. Bought two lemonade and a footlong corn dog with small fry and it cost $66. Other food vendors there are way cheaper, think festival food prices. The pits were nice, racing was good and we could actually hear the announcers through the sound system. Went to NPK Columbus last year (2021) and had no sound in gen admission so this track was better. Vip and preferred seating had shade with a roof. Some preferred seating was in sun on non-pit side. Although you can bring your own seats and sit along the fence mid to end of track. All racer merch went up due to shipping cost...even though they aren't shipping it to you, the cost they put out has went up so their product went up $5-$10. Parking is in a grass field and cost $20 a day for this event. Bathrooms were clean and were actual buildings on both sides of tracks. There are also port-o-lets too. Beer ranged from $7-12 for a tall boyish size...according to guys sitting next to us...I saw mostly budweiser products. Driver pics and autographs were free. Drivers were awesome! Water $3 a bottle.

I like this place but I honestly expected more from it. They have a small pool and splash park area for babies and toddlers which is really fun. Their wave pool, lazy River, and splash park for bigger kids is always a good time and keeps …Raina, thank you for visiting and sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry if you experienced any issues during your visit. Beech Bend, along with businesses throughout the U.S., faced a major hiring shortage this year. Our toddler and children's attractions are listed at https://www.beechbend.com/amusement-park/rides-attractions/.
Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
That's a big place with alot of room don't think you're going to have any problems
32 on some with an adult then usually 48 without an adult
What hours days are they open
Park closed for season. Campgrounds always has someone at office. 24 hrs a day
Maybe but you'll still have fun
Our park opens May 8th for rides and May 22nd we will open the water park
Yes, a helmet is needed in any drag racing event.

NO! Their website shows that they are closed Monday and Tuesday!
Beech Bend also has an adjacent water park with slides and swimming pools, free tubes, free sunscreen and lockers you can rent. Fun place!
I do believe that they have an updated schedule posted on the website
Next door. We listened to the races while we rode rides. 😊
It's $31 for kids and $39 for adults. We went last Saturday
No but the $10 refillable souvenir cup includes $1 refills all season long
Yes it's free just a 2.00 deposit but you get it back
Unless they have changed it over the last month mini golf is included but the go carts are an extra charge
Any day
You don't need reservations to go, went yesterday without a reservation
Its an open air environment not enclosed would be my best guess for it. Not to mention due to the mask its very hard to accurately communicate
The sign out front says "No refunds due to inclement weather". I noticed it when we were there last week.
Never heard of it...but...there is an event booth/stage... For now it's a magic show.. And later trivia
Show ID at gate.
Season passes bought before May 2020 last until June 29th of next year. Season passes bought now only last until end of season this year
June 29th is what I was told today when I called
No
I would try it out. Google and call. It is a nice place to camp. The water park is really fun for kids as well
If you're a water park I dont think it's nice to take coolers.
They have free sunscreen at the entrance to the water park but drinks are not free. You can purchase a souvenir cup for $10 and get $1 refills for the season if you bring it back.
Yes
Yes there where and looks can be deceiving. The ones i thought where kidy wasnt lol
There are some kid rides and also a "dual height" sign at the other rides. One is ride alone while the other is ride with someone. Check out the beech bend park website for exact measurements.✌
No but there are discount tickets on groupon
https://www.beechbend.com/campground/information-rates/
48 inches alone and 46 with an adult. Not sure bout tiki island. Could call and ask?
If you are talking about the theme park, no there are no cart rentals. You would need to bring a wheelchair or "scooter" power chair. If you're talking about the race track, I've never seen rental. There are several that bring their own golf carts.
And obviously on holiday weekends. Like this week is bike week into the 4th of July weekend.
Also depends on how many days.
I didn't work there
Enjoy all the rides in Beech Bend Park for the family-friendly price of just $15 plus 6% sales tax from 5:00 to 9:30 pm Friday nights beginning May 24
Aa far as I know they will. Of courae they will stop if there is a lightening warning or high winds.
I don't think they would care but cars may scare pets.
This isnt an official answer but I know my nephew is 15 and has a season pass my sister can drop him off and he goes straight on in no questions asked. I would say much younger or even younger looking than that and they may raise concerns.
You can call or go to the website because they have family packs
Adult $37.99 48"and above Child $31.99 under 48" Senior $31.99 60 and over Child 2 and under free Military free ID required Discount tickets daily after 3
Not sure of that, you would have to call them on that one.
I bet of you were to call them they could sort it out for you.
Usually $159.99 for ages 3 and older.. But I think they're still on sale right now for $99.99 each.
Opens Saturday May 4th. 2019
No idea, I would call.
Might have to call them sorry I can't help we didn't camp
16 I think.
It’s pretty much open all day. Beech bend is open in the summer and so is the water park. However, if you go there on Friday night lights, the water park will close when the sun goes down.
Yes
No, but they do have concession stands pretty much everywhere and you can bring an empty water bottle and fill it up with water when you get there. Also you can get a refillable cup and get refills for a dollar all day.
10:30 am
Probably like 20 feet for the low drop, and 30 for the big one
We didn't go to the amusement park, we camped in the campgrounds there for the car show. Cost for camping was typical/average cost.
Not open on sundays. There's at least 20 + plus rides for all ages
It depends on how tall your 11 year old is. The price depends on height.
Some. 1 big coaster and plenty of other rides for adults.
The large are $10 and are only big enough to fit a backpack the XL are $15
Yes
I'm not sure if it is per their policy, but we took a couple of bottled waters in the park to keep down our expenses.
I don't have one but I would like to get one if you find one
No
No! Though, July August, and September are typically their busiest months. Hey!!! Sharon, check out their website it's loaded with racing and campsite & fun for summer information.
There is 2. One is a big wooden roller coaster. The other one is a small kiddie one that spins.
36.95 ×3 = 110.85 You can find $10.00 discounts @ most motel/hotel brochure racks in their lobbies. Have fun, you will enjoy the ole time atmosphere I believe.
I haven't booked a birthday party but their website says they offer group deals for 15-10000. If you have fewer, I'd still call and ask. They may have some flexibility or suggestions.
I think 35.99 for anyone over 54 inches. It's on their website
$75 plus tax around $80 but you don’t get any food services or anything😕 all you do is pretty much just get shade and “comfortable” chairs
Ask the park
I believe its $10 for adults and kids under 12 are free w/adult of course.
Good question, I wish I could help
May 5th is first day of amusement park opening. They are having the Harley Davidson event right now and weekend. I'm over at the campgrounds. They are having Friday night lights this year !
Yep
If you are going at least two days it is cheaper to buy a season pass. It comes with some great coupons too! Well worth it I think. We had the best time this summer while we visited. The park is closed for winter right now though. You can see the website for operating days. The campground is still opened.
Noonish
The NMRA All-Ford World Finals will take place September 28 - October 1
LS Fest. Its a large car show and race, centered arou,d vehicles with the Chevrolet LS platform engine.
No, but you can get stamped and have a picnic on the parking area.
It’s better to get them when they go on sale because then they are $99.99
Not really, there is a campground and racing facilities. You are 4 to 5 mies from town.
