What is your local park?

I live 15 minutes away from La Ronde... Talk about bad luck.

Carowinds all the way! Just a 45-min drive on the NC Side.

I've got a few parks I could consider to be my home park, now that I've moved. I've got an Alpine coaster 20 min north of me, but the closest park is Idlewild. Kennywood, Lakemont, and DelGrosso's are all about equal distance. I'd consider Kennywood my home park, as it was when I lived in West Virginia. However, I go to Cedar Point enough to consider it to be my "home away from home" park.

My 'home' park is Alton Towers, which is about an hour away from where I live, I've also got Flamingo Land & Lightwater Valley which aren't a huge amount further away, but I rarely visit them, where as I go to Alton Towers around 7 or 8 times a year.

The closest parks - Rye Playland, Lake Compounce, Quassy, and Bowcraft - are each 60-90 minutes from me.

 

SFNE, SFGAd, Dorney are my home "big" parks - each is at or just under 2.5h

 

However there is good variety: within ~5h, there are about ~40 "worthwhile" parks, and a further ~20 "credit whoring" parks/FECs.

It WAS Cedar Point and Geauga Lake....

 

...but we all know that story. Now, its just Cedar Point

I technically live closer to Carowinds, but I consider Dollywood to be my home park. I've only been to Carowinds once, but I've had a season pass to Dollywood for 15 years.

I live closer to Canobie Lake but I've only been there once. I consider Lake Compounce to be my home park. It's a two hour drive versus one and a half so there isn't much of a difference.

I could prly jog to Michigan's Adventure if I really wanted to haha

[jynx242]

Universal Studios Orlando, WDW and SeaWorld are all about the same distance BGT is just over an hour away.

[I305forever]

SFA, which isn't as much of a tragedy as everyone thinks. As I have already said on this forum million times, ITS NOT THAT BAD!

Holiday Park with Expedition GeForce! About 1,5 hours away....

[AvengedYolo]

Well, I consider SFMM my home park, but I can actually take the bus to USH pretty easily.

[gp1086]

Closest is Coney Island, but never been. Home park is Six Flags Great Adventure.

[Pyrozooka0]

My home park is SFOG, as my tendancy to freak out everything something even remotely cool is rumored for the place, not to mention the assorted occult RMC/Intamin/Mack summoning rituals

[Voyager6442]

My local park is Magic Springs in Hot Springs, Arkansas. I live about an hour away in Little Rock. It's great to have a wooden coaster like Arkansas Twister so close. I rode it 9 times yesterday, but with a season pass, there will be many more rides this summer.

[SoCal_Coaster]

Closest park to me is probably Universal Studios Hollywood, but I tend to go to Magic Mountain much more. So I would have to call SFMM my home park.

[Imagineer Josh]

Wow, I haven't posted here yet!

 

Six Flags Great America, 1 hour 10 minutes away

[LiftThrill]

SFFT, SWSA, ZDT's, and Schlitterbahn New Braunfels are all within a half hour of my house. SFOT is 3-4 hours away and I visit there occasionally. Probably won't be able to go there this season, but I'm not complaining about doubling my count on a 3500 mile trip at all
