CoastersRZ Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 While that news station is just not reporting this, CNL Lifestyle properties actually sold the park back in November (along with a collection of other parks). http://www.snl.com/IRWebLinkX/file.aspx?IID=113645&FID=36526407 Other parks that were included in the sale include Magic Springs, Frontier City, several Wet `n` Wilds and Pacific Park in Santa Monica, CA. I have visited Darien Lake several years ago with my wife. The park had an odd layout and a strange vibe. Coasters were decent, especially Ride of Steel and their launched Zamperla Moto Coaster. Worth a visit, but unless they added something new, I wouldn`t go out of my way to make a return trip there. I have also been to Pacific Park at Santa Monica pier in CA on my honeymoon. They have a nice collection of rides that are really crammed in a small space. Definitely check out the carousel just outside Pacific Park. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustbucket Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 We visited Darken Lake when they added Moto Coaster about 6 years ago. I agree with you that the park was not memorable enough to go back unless they add some major attractions or combine with other trips such as Canada's Wonderland.
