I miss this place so much. Whether it was Geauga lake or six flags. I have to show this to my son who's starting to get into coasters. I've tried explaining it to him before. I loved the Batman ride so much and the double loop was the first Rollercoaster I ever rode. It's so great seeing all those memories come to life again.

Amazing footage! Gives me flashbacks of when my father as well as my sister and I having season passes from the mid 90s to the last season the Geauga lake park was open. After cedar fair shut down everything but the water park we stopped going as it was depressing to see the rotting corpse of the amusement park from wild water kingdom. I should’ve went to the last day that was open too but now all of it’s gone and being turned into more retail spaces (which won’t last long and be abandoned like across the street there’s empty stores) and homes for the upper class citizens of Aurora and bainbridge that aren’t affordable to the average joe. I noticed some footage was cut though from the original vid like the parking lot with X-Flight and Big Dipper footage. Still good days there for sure especially during the 2003 blackout when we got stuck on serial thriller for an hour lol.

I remember the coaster having a bunch of loops and being over a frog pond. 18:42 is the general direction/area I was standing at.

@@XtremeCoasters - Yea, me and a friend went to Cedar Point for Millennium Force and at that time I didn't even know Worlds of Adventure existed. It was pretty cool how immense the landscaping was on the one side of the park then XFlight was built on part of old parking lot looking a little ghetto with just half dead looking grass underneath but the other side of the park was landscaping overload lol. I remember walking across the floating bridge that went over the lake. It was such a cool park, I can't believe its just a few concrete pads left. I have some pics but no video. XFlight was my first flying coaster.

It was incredible, but Cedar Point had opened Millennium Force, Wicked Twister and Top Thrill Dragster between 2000 -2003. There is no way this park could compete with that sort of combo. Guess more people were heading to CP and this park just didn't get the numbers it needed :(

@@XtremeCoasters I understand, but when Cedar Fair owned this park, you can't tell me that they couldn't have kept this a "B" park. What I mean is, even then, when Cedar Point adds a ride, a ride has to be taken away. You can't tell me that their rides couldn't have been transferred to this park, and both parks could have advertised as a weekend visit; one day for each park. Cedar Point already owned the hotels. 🤷‍♂️

@@badreality2 Really it comes down to only operating one park instead of 2. The amount of money they saved by buying the park dirt cheap and closing it has been worth millions over time since it's purchase. While it's a bummer and it seems cruel, it was a smart business decision taking advantage of Six Flags who had screwed themselves and making it to where King's Island and Cedar Point were the main game and that's it in Ohio.

It should have never closed down. With the ride collection and everything else it had to offer, with the right management there is no reason this park could not have succeeded. Being close to Cedar Point was a lame excuse for its failure. It offered a very different experience to CP, so can't see why anyone who was in the area and had even the slightest interest in theme/amusement parks wouldn't visit both.

Favourite would have been Batman Knight Flight. But they also had The Villain, Superman and X-Flight which were all running amazingly well in 2003. Can't really find anything negative to say about the place this visit, it was an incredible day. The removal of some of the bigger rides when we revisited in 2007 was a disappointment, little did we know that Cedar Fair were in the process of running the place down in preparation to close it.

man! this depresses me. I went there almost every single year from 93-2005 and saw the park in many different forms from when it was Geauga Lake and Seaworld was completely seperate, to then you could have a pass to do both, to Six Flags while keeping an animal park (can't remember if it was still Seaworld or not), to Six Flags with the animal park closed, to Six Flags Great Adventure when the animal park was now another water park, then to when it was Geauga Lake again. Things weren't the same after Six Flags left and definitely sucked when they started pulling out rides but never thought it'd be closed. It's so sad to see the state of the property now. It was such an amazing place for so long. Such a waste. Definitely seemed to me Cedar Point wanted to eliminate competition and make as much money as possible in the process, honestly should be criminal.

We only visited in 2003 and 2007. We saw a massive difference between the park we visited in 2003, and the park we revisited in 2007. Coasters had already been removed, and the park was a shadow of its former self. That's not to say it was a bad experience, we loved both our visits to the park. It's such a shame more wasn't done to keep it open.

@@XtremeCoasters I know! it's crazy there's housing development over there now. Supposedly they are putting a new water park there at the same spot the water park used to be, supposedly they are even keeping the old wave pool and just fixing it up. The property is completely demolished and grounded now, only thing left is the pool. Absolutely no signs that the biggest amusement park in the country was ever there. It's been awhile since I've seen updates so maybe they started building stuff now.
