Six Flags Darien Lake

"We are definitely going back. Service, for the most part, was very lackluster, and the entire site was in a clear state of disrepair. And yet, we had a great time with lots of great food and plenty to do...for a four year old. I'll review again when the adults get to enjoy it. One downside is the astronomical costs of EVERYTHING in the park -- way beyond realistic even for a setting like this. When a slice of pizza is $16 and a can of local beer is $14, there's a problem."

"Spent a weekend here in Aug. We stayed in the cabins. What a great time my family had. Would definitely recommend to everyone kids or not! Buy the seasons pass if you're planning on going park more then one day!"

"Updating only review after a second stay. This time we stayed in a cabin and it was a much better experience than the leaking trailer with no mattress. The cabins are very spacious and have AC. This would be a 5 star review but some walls of the cabin had some marks on that were easy to wipe away but was obviously something missed by the cleaning crew."

"Excellent park! Really enjoyed the water areas! Parking was simple with the app! Highly recommend downloading it before you go. Cute little picnic shelters in the parking lot! They allowed us to bring in our own water bottles in our bags. Concert area, I recommend getting there a bit early to score seats that don't have the poles blocking the stage. They also have water bottle refill stations in that area."

"Spent perfect summer day at Six Flags at Darien Center with a group of teenagers. I was able to sit by the wave pool and read for a good portion of the day while the kids had fun exploring the park. Being with teenage boys, I purchased the unlimited drink and dining package for them. Totally worth it. It’s supposed to be a meal & snack every 90 minutes & unlimited drinks. Unfortunately they don’t put many details on their website. Once that was figured out, the boys were fine. Service is extremely slow and not very friendly (just observation throughout the day). It’s not like going to Disney or Universal. Lines are long, and employees seem like they’d rather be somewhere else. For example, two of the boys I was with played the basketball game. There was a line and after the two kids in my group were finished - they just closed the game. Cut off the rest of the line and people were not happy. It was 7pm! They saw there was a line and they didn’t care. It’s such an odd customer service business model. Same with getting drinks or food throughout the day. This was observed at many of the stations, but the one that comes to mind is when there were three people in the booth and one person was waiting on customers and two others were standing in the booth not waiting on anyone - there was a line and I could hear the guy behind me say ‘are you kidding me? 3 people in there and only one is serving customers?’ It’s great entertainment. Safe rides. Kids have fun. However don’t expect any good or great level of service."
