Busch/Kings/SFA help

[kingdakacor]

Hey guys,

 

Planning on hitting up these three parks over Memorial Day Weekend this year. I shopped around and there are so many hotels to choose from in BGW area. Any recommendations that are fairly close to the park. Keeping my fingers crossed Verbolten is open by then. kings I have most of the credits from...except Ricochet and one side of rebel yell...I think there may be a kiddie credit in there too? SFA ok Apocalypse is going up ever so slowly. Do we see it completed by late May or possibly in the middle of summer? Any other tips to throw out there would be much appreciated! Thanks guys. Coaster season is almost upon us!

Both Verbolten and Apocalypse should be open by Memorial Day barring any delays that happen. Windseeker looks like it should be up and running by then as well.

 

I can't say much about the hotels, but there are some fairly new hotels along Bypass Road (close to the colonial area) and Capital Landing Road (within the same vicinity). The hotels closest to the park are a bit older (the Marriott next to the park is nice though). The Richmond Road (main drag) hotels are much closer to food options though.

 

KD has two kiddie credits. Taxi Jam and Ghoster Coaster.

 

Be careful with crowds. It does get kinda busy around that weekend since it's the kickoff to summer. Hit all must-rides early and if the crowds get too heavy, I'd invest in any available fastpass options. Be sure to take it easy and have fun.

 

If you have time and are a history buff, I'd recommend checking out Colonial Williamsburg and the rest of the Historic Triangle. The National Mall is also a nice place to check out.

If I was staying in Williamsburg, I'd stay in the main Richmond Road area so you at least have something to eat, shop, etc. Right near the park is kind of barren.
