Grew up going to Knotts and now that I have kids, I couldn't think of a better place to have a birthday party. Knotts admission tickets are very affordable especially if you purchase them online and 3 days in advance. Because we couldn't pay for everyone's admission, the price was OK for people to pay for their admission in order... More

I was first debating with myself either to go to Six Flags or Knott's for quite a few days. I chose Knott's and I'm very happy about my choice! It was not busy at the park on the day (Thursday), so there were almost no lines for any rides, which was awesome! We arrived a bit later than expected like... More

How can you anything but like Knott's. The price compared to Disneyland is so fantastic. The rides are plenty and the kids love them. The old stagecoach is so fun and the train ride with the would be Jesse James is really cute. I took my niece, nephew and friends on the train and didn't tell them about that part... More

Had a good day, kids loved it, Hardly anyone there so no lines for attractions. Roller coasters are good. Food a little pricey but overall not bad. Filled in the whole day.

Not having been back to knotts in over 20 years, I thought I would check it out with friends. It was truly a sad theme park. I wanted to like it, I really did, but I found the whole place just depressing and lacking any magic. Yes, I know, it's not disneyland, I appreciate that. However you don't have to... More

We HATED knotts berry farm. We had been to Disneyland for the two days prior to our trip to KBF. We also went straight from Disneyland to KBF, so I happened to be wearing a Disneyland T-shirt. I was hassled for my T-shirt by the staff, can you believe that? I had no idea it would be a problem, I... More

We have been here 3 times before when visiting from NZ and really enjoy Knotts Berry Farm. We went on a week day, not busy at all so it was good not having to line up for the rides. Yes it does need a bit of a spruce up here and there, but overall the rides are really good and... More

The park was the cheapest to get into, but also the worst so far as customer service and park looks. We attended on a very warm day, we all noticed that there was very little in the way of shade provided, especially in lines for rides. There also seems to be very little in the way of greenery. One of... More

We went in April 2013 with our 6 year old son. The park was great! We went on a weekday so there were less people there- that was a bonus. Some things were closed, but we enjoyed all of the shows and nearly every ride open (some we rode a few times) in our one day trip there. I wish... More
