Reviews
"In '16, when the world was chewing on its grit, they hammered and hoisted up the carousel at Lighthouse Point Park. This wasn't just any merry-go-round; it was a whirl of dreams, one of the last of its dying breed, snagged by New Haven's rough hands a decade later. The thing's got 72 beasts on its back β horses with eyes wild as Saturday night, camels that saw the desert once, and dragons that breathed fire before they got caged in this dance. They spin, these wooden misfits, twirling those sunburned beach bums and wide-eyed kids a stone's throw from the moody licks of Long Island Sound. Stashed under a roof that's seen better days, it's a nickel-and-dime show. Fifty cents and you hitch a ride on this ancient whirligig, running from the first sweat of summer to the last gasp of it. It's a nickel-and-dime show, but for those few moments, you're buying a piece of the sky."
"The carousel is great!! It's a nice standard carousel in the building within the park. And it's only $.50 per person per ride. I think it has a ride every 20 minutes or so. It was fun, even for adults. The room was quite hot and muggy though, but wasn't as bad when it was going around in the circle. Definitely recommend this, especially for . $.50."
"Great park. Working Carousel. Beautiful sunset"
"Attended a wedding here. Staff were helpful, vendors knew where everything went, rates were great AND there was an operating carousel for wedding guests following a beachfront ceremony. The only drawback was that there were a lot of people coming into the venue to look and ask questions which distracted a bit from the wedding. Otherwise I highly recommend the carousel, lighthouse, and park as a great event venue."
"Just attended a wedding here and it was beautiful. Lots of room and a picture perfect view. There is no air conditioner or fan and it was a very warm night with no breeze so it was dreadfully hot but everything else was amazing."
