Carowinds

Carowinds is the only park that spans across and into two different states ! We recommend that you ride Nighthawk and Intimidator first thing in the morning to avoid longer lines !

The rides are a thrill, the food is amazing, and the staff is friendly and courteous. If you want to have a great time at an amusement park , this is the place to go.

Very solid park ! The employees were very helpful, the rides very nice, and the variety of choices great! Plus, no roller coasters here require a locker! You can't beat that!

Haven't been to Carowinds in a long time. Last time I went it was still owned by Paramount. The new owners from Cedar Point have really dumped a lot of money into the park and maintained it very well .

Season passes are the way to go. ..four or more you pay less for a season pass than for one full price ticket. Buy the $12.00 drinks bc you get free refills all day and .99 refills all season

Water park is top notch, as are the coasters! Could use a few more flats (though the Scream Weaver is a forever favourite), but all in all an awesome park ! Season pass is the way to go, too.

It is one of my favorite places go on amusement park rides! The fury and the intimidator are my favorite rides there.

Tired of sweets? The Coca-Cola Oasis, between the Carolina Cyclone and the Hurler, has a selection of fresh fruit . It's good, and the prices aren't super-high.

Some of the tallest & fastest coasters around. Great variety of rides and good carnival style food (funnel cakes !). Great time for the whole family!

AAA offers best deals!! All day pass 44.99...water park closes at 8pm...the Fury 325 is awesome..go on overcast day

Fury is amazing! I absolutely recommend riding on it before your day at the park is over. Gets the adrenaline pumping! Very fun.

Charlotte averages in the 80s in early September, so catch a breeze on the Intimidator, the tallest, fastest, and longest coaster in the Southeast!

As someone who frequents Disney, not that bad of an experience. Worth the visit, especially if in the Charlotte area. However, I wouldn’t choose this over a Disney trip.

A must for roller coaster fanatics. Do the Fury 325. Tallest, fastest coaster in the country !

Great for all ages with snoopy land and things like the night hawk(favorite) and Fury 325(also favorite)

Season pass ...amusement park combined with a water park ...best place for the kids during the summer

Pack a cooler with lunch , get your hand stamped and eat in the parking lot . Park food is crazy expensive ! Almost $60 to feed Chick Fil A to five of us in the Park , wow!

During late september and all of october, carowinds becomes Scarowinds from 7-12 everynight. They have haunted houses and the all the rides and rollercoasters are open too!

Not many healthy options , good idea to eat healthy before arriving, bring a water bottle, and check out harmony hall for sliced fruits and salads

I love this place to spend the day all the rides are fun!! Initmidator & nighthawk are must rides!! Boomerang bay is also fun.

Only 4 great coasters and not a lot to do if you don't like coasters. Needs more family rides and shades. It gets way too hot during the summer.

Personally, I loved the after burn and the nighthawk . Admission is a little pricey , but if you have a military ID, it's only $30-something.

I am in love with the Intimidator...so smooth for those that are apprehensive. It is really high...but a great ride. The power hour is cool too They get you off an on the ride so quickly!

Great family amusement park . Lots of good rides, especially the new Fury 325 roller coaster .

Get on the Windseeker first. It gives you a really good view of the park , and helps you see what you want to get on next.

Go when everyone thinks its gonna rain! Few crowds today and the weather is perfect. Cool breezes and plenty of clouds. We couldn't have asked for a better day!!

We went today (Wednesday) and our average wait time in line was about 10 mins. Some rides we walked right in while they were loading. Also free ice water!!!

Great Park . Always have a good time when we go.

Any cadar fair park is good. But, Cedar Point is the best over all amusement parks !

Love this place, especially the roller coasters .

Best place ever. I always have a great time especially with my family.

Make sure you get your picture taken even if you know you aren't going to buy it. They have a quota of 85 pics/hour.

so much fun, especially during the summer.

Get the souvenir cups , they pay for themselves after two drinks. Perfect on a hot day

Be sure to order the stir-fry or the steak ! And enjoy the memory foam mattress!

What can I say? It's an amusement park , of course it's fun!

Take a photo with any of the PEANUTS gang inside Planet Snoopy and share it @Snoopy on Twitter or <aclass="entity url"rel="nofollow" href="http://facebook.com/snoopy"target="_blank" data-sig="VMsWQJ5H+77zgYZOjg3ZfJkejdg=" onmousedown="fourSq.ui.OutgoingLink.mousedown($(this), event)" data-source="tip-text">facebook.com/snoopy</a>!

The Nighthawk is the most fun, but the Fury 325 is absolutely thrilling. Skip the Cyclone.

Look for coupons! $29.99/ea for a family of 3 totally rocked! The After Burn was our favorite!!!

Before you go, either goto the Bi-Lo up the road in Charlotte on South Tryon ti buy your tix or goto Burger King on Tryon to get a $15 off coupon on Medium or large drinks!

Love going on days like today when it's not crowded .

If you buy a season pass (which makes since if you go more then once a year), go for the early entry and you can hit all three major coasters before the park is even open. Read more

Had a good time with family, but park was packed paid in advance for parking online then had to park in gradd miles from enterence :-( waste of $12!

Intimidation and Afterburn along with Night Hawk are worth the money and really awesome !

There should of been a discount . Charging full price for half a park , that was ridiculous. If the Water park isn't available to the public yet don't rob us.

Visit the dinosaur exhibit very cool and educational

Stay at the campground for free shuttle & 2day passes to carowinds for only $50. Per person :)

Short lines on cloudy days! Happy birthday Dj !

If an associate asks you to take a survey please do. They have to meet daily quotas and it's only 5 questions.

The lunch prices are unbelievably expensive . We paid 63.09 for 3 slices of pizza , 3 drinks, and a kid's meal.
