Cedar point or Six flags great adventure

[PurpleMontu]

So, I am looking for some advice really, I'm finding it quite difficult to find the information I need to plan my holiday, I was originally going to look at the possibility of coming for a club tpr or general tpr meeting but I am unsure of when your next ones will be that take in either of the parks, so I am thinking about doing it by my lonesome

 

Basically I am looking into either park (not both), maybe september or october before the end of season and for maybe 4-5 nights stay, maybe more. I would be travelling from the UK, likely manchester. I also don't drive So I guess I'm wondering,how easy is it to get to these parks from their nearest airports? I see cleveland int is about 60 miles away but how much on estimate should I be looking to pay for a taxi/transfer? or is the grey hound or amtrak near enough to travel? also what about accommodation, I am struggling to find rooms available for any time I have looked from the hotels that cedar point offer on their website, I don't know if this is perhaps because I am searching for a solo occupancy or perhaps the wrong dates? So are there any near by places that you would recommend that are fairly cheap and nice enough, I am not after anything fancy, I just really want to finally get to either one of these parks and at this moment in time I have funds to make it possible, it is just sad I may have to go alone but heyho! i'm an only child, i am used to it and if I do manage it then any tpr ppl that are in the area would be welcome to come keep me company

I think there's a transfer to SFGA from new york, but for cedar point, you WILL need a taxi from the greyhound or amtrak station (or a non resort hotel) to the park - I think it's actually illegal to walk there, if not then highly impractical - when I went, I was really surprised by the size of the place on a view from the taxi as it went round to the hotel.

 

also - there's only one amtrak train in each direction a day, and they both arrive at sandusky at around 4-5am.
