We take great pride in being a place the whole family can enjoy! We are America's largest free-admission amusement park and offer free parking, free daily entertainment and free picnic facilities. While at the park, take a dip in our 900,000 gallon Crystal Pool filled with refreshing mountain stream water. The pool area includes watersides, diving boards and a play area for young children. Stay overnight at one of two campgrounds that include cabins and over 800 campsites for tents and campers. In addition to more than 60 rides, award winning food, swimming, games, and shopping, you can add a round of golf at Knoebels Three Ponds Golf Course right next door to the park.

Absolutely excellent, great range of rides for all ages, lots of shade with the trees around, fab pool and slides, and best of all really reasonably priced. We'll definitely be back next summer.

This little museum, attached to the carousel gift shop, is a wonderful treasure. It first shows some very early carousel horses, then displays at least one horse from every major classic carousel maker. It also houses the 2 surviving horses from Knoebels' first carousel and six rounding boards and shields from the present Grand Carousel that may be offensive to some people today. They do a good job of explaining each animal, etc. that they display. The two carousels in Knoebels are also very much worth riding. The Grand Carousel's horses are exquisitely carved by Charles Carmel (a rarity), and it has won many awards. The kiddie carousel was made by Stein and Goldstein. Don't think this wasn't made for children: although the horses are definitely big enough for adults to ride, Stein and Goldstein made most of their carousels with absolutely huge horses, among the biggest on any carousel ever!
