I live right downtown in the Capitol Hill area of Denver, CO (2 miles from the park). I grew up 40 minutes from Kings Island in Oxford,OH so Elitch Gardens is quite the disappointment. I know it's under new ownership, again, but there is simply no reason for me to visit until some improvements are made...or if TPR had an event. Aside from the Twister II coaster, it is really a glorified, overpriced carnival. It's landlocked without room for growth, is a concrete jungle and offers substandard rides that are closed most of the time. I heard the water park is nice, but we have WaterWorld 20 minutes down the road that is pretty amazing. There is so much open land outside of Denver. I wish Elitch's would move to somewhere where they have room to grow and add some world class rides eventually.
