"I started visiting enchanted forest about 50 years ago. I still have the pictures which I would love to share and such wonderful memories from my visits to the park as a small child. My grandmother would visit her family across the street at the Pied Piper and I wound accompany her on several trips when I was very young. I am now a grandmother, and I bring my family to the park. I always have a greet time and can't wait to return."

“I love to bring my granddaughter to EFWS. She is now 11 and we have been coming since she was 4. My daughter has bought us season passes for Christmas gifts and Mother’s Day. (My granddaughter has such a good time that she asked her cousin from NC to come and spend 3 weeks with us in Old Forge so we could go to EFWS and she is coming) Having a pass makes it so easy to call other kids that have passes too. We all meet at Paul Bunyan and the fun really does begin! Adult’s catch up on the past-year while the kids enjoy the park. It is the cleanest park and all the employees are always trying to keep it that way. Safe is even better than clean and EFWS has both. You c an bring your own food; pick a place to leave it and when you return everything is still there. People who use the grills have even offered us hamburgers because they cooked too many. If you asked me what I would change it would be difficult to come up with an answer. Come to Old Forge and see for yourself how much fun you will have!"

“Enchanted Forest has been a tradition in our family for many generations. We are so happy to be able to bring our family to such a wonderful and magical place that seems to only get better year after year! We enjoy camping for the weekend at the various campgrounds offering transportation to and from the water park as well as MANY day trips-as we are lucky enough to have EFWS right in our own backyard! The staff at EFWS is well trained, kind, and are always happy to assist or suggest new fun activities and contests. The water park itself is always sparkling clean and it is apparent that safety is their main concern which, as a Mom of three will tell you, is worth its weight in gold (which you can pan for during your visit!!). From the amazing circus and petting zoo to the awesome water park and timeless train ride through the famous "Enchanted Forest,"it continues to captivate its audience of all ages and certainly keeps us coming back for more!”

- Shannon T. of Boonville, NY

"I grew up in up state New York. This was always my favorite part of the school year - getting those permission slips signed & my family meeting us at Enchanted Forest!! I get chills every time I think of the amount of fun we had. Now that I am grown and have children of my own, it was only fair that I share the love with them. Every summer we take a trip to New York from our home in North Carolina to see family. We always make a plan to include Enchanted forest water Safari! I absolutely love this place. Thank you for such amazing memories that are continually made.. God Bless"

- Brandy A. of Camp LeJeune, North Carolina

"Your park is one my favorite places on Earth. My parents would bring us every year. We had a routine: The gondola, then the train, Storybook Lane, the dry rides, and then on to the water. In the off season, I would write stories about the park. I live in Seattle now, and I am 30, yet I am planning on coming home this summer to have a reunion there with my brothers. In fact, I had a dream that I went to the park last night, and was very upset because Serengeti was closed for maintenance. I cannot recommend this park enough. I prefer it to Disney!"

- Erika of Seattle, Washington

"Love you guys. You make SUMMER fun. We get season tickets and feel like we visit a favorite friend. All the staff are friendly and go out of the way to make the day fun. I wish I could learn all your names to thank each and every single one of you for making another summer fun!!!! :)"

- Mary Jo and Kevin M. of Ogdensburg, NY
