Cedar Point Frontier Festival ~ Good Food & Fun For the Family – Through June 30th

June 25, 2019 by racheljk 1 Comment

Disclosure: As a Cedar Point blogger, I was provided tickets to Cedar Point along with tickets for food at the festival. Regardless, all opinions are my own.

Cedar Point Frontier Festival

Cedar Point has proven that they know how to throw a party with their past festival, Brew and BBQ and this year is no different! Cedar Point’s new Frontier Festival offers a sunflower-inspired street festival with local artisans, kids’ crafts and games, continuous live entertainment and wild food and drink to sample and savor.

Last weekend, I loaded up my van with my family and a few of my boys’ friends and we headed out to Cedar Point to check out the festival. Most of us have Cedar Point season passes and one thing we LOVE about them is the opportunity to go out for a few hours in the evening when the weather is cooler.

Located in Frontier Town, this sunflower themed festival, will make you feel like you’ve stepped into old west. The gorgeous decor is abundant from potted plants, barrels, flowers and more. Best of all Frontier Festival is for families! If you want to visit, you’ll want to hurry as this festival run daily through June 30, 2019. Keep in mind that while the park opens much earlier this daily festival starts at 4:00 pm.

At the Cedar Point Frontier Festival, guests have the opportunity to nibble
specialty food items made right on the midway. These foods include items like two-meat barbeque baked beans, fire roasted chicken drums, and smoked wings. There are even delectable desserts. Guests can wash the wild food down with alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage samples, including craft brews, ciders, wines and handcrafted lemonades.

The Frontier Festival features a ticketing system for samples. For $25 (passholders), $28 (everyone else), guests receive 20 tickets redeemable for food and beverage when purchasing online.

While the festival is family friendly, with kids events such a a pie walk, horse racing and even a pie eating contest, my friends and I enjoyed a “Moms Night Out”. We sat in the comfy chairs located all over the area, listened to music, chatted about our kiddos and sipped an nibbled for hours. It was a wonderful night!

While there was a lot of food that we liked one of our favorites of the night was the Great Plains Bison Chili with Wild Berry Multi Grain Boule (2 tickets). It was served warm and was full of flavor. It’s very mild, which will appeal to a wide audience.

The Fire Roasted Chicken Drums with Wild Flower Honey BBQ or Carolina Gold BBQ (1 ticket) and Sweet and Sassy Smoked Wings (2 tickets) were also really good. The skin on both were crispy but the chicken was still soft and juicy inside. It was delicious!

Another top pick was the Pulled Pork Slider with Molasses BBQ Sauce (2 tickets). Guests can get the pulled pork with or without a slider bun, and pair it with their choice of sauces. I thought the bun was perfect with this slider and the pork was so tender.

After dinner, be sure to save a few tickets for dessert. We sampled the Wild Strawberry Short Cake with Fresh Berries, Angel Food Cake, Whipped Topping (2 tickets) and the Layered Blueberry Crumb Cake with Fresh Berries, Crumb Cake, Sweet Cream (2 tickets). These were both so good we went back and got more!

This years Frontier Festival, featuring 33 beers, 9 wines and 6 ciders. Samples of alcohol are 1 ticket, full servings are 3 tickets. Some of the featured drinks are beers such as Columbus Bodhi IPA, New Belgium and Juicifer IPA; wines such as Butternut Chardonnay and Ritas Spritz Rose; and ciders such as Down East Aloha Friday and McKenzie’s Black Cherry.

While sampling, my girlfriends and I listened to the live entertainment and couldn’t help but tap our toes. There are several bands playing throughout the festival such as Grand ole’ Pickers, Backwoods Pickers and Loop Rawlins. The evening we were there, they also had karaoke, dancing, and lively characters roaming. Some of us even country line danced (I have video to prove it!)

If you love walking through the Frontier shops, the Cedar Point Frontier Festival is the place to be. They have several booths with special exhibitors and live demonstrations. In addition, their are local artisans selling their items and at great prices too.

I really enjoyed seeing how family friendly the Frontier Festival is and how many activities it has to include the whole family. There were couples there on dates, families enjoying the music, teens chowing on food and smiles all around.

Even though our kiddos were off riding coasters (they think that is more fun than hanging out with us… as if! 🙂 ) we all remarked how we’ll have to have them come back and check out the festival too!

Don’t miss the Cedar Point Frontier Festival . Time is running out!

Cedar Point’s Frontier Festival runs daily through June 30th. The festival starts at 4pm everyday. All activities are free with the purchase of a Cedar Point ticket, except for the food and drink.

Cedar Point Cabins ~ Rentals in Sandusky, Ohio

June 17, 2019 by racheljk 13 Comments

Cedar Point Cabins Rental

“PIN IT” 

Have you been looking at a Cedar Point Cabins? Check this out!

Each year, my family gets Cedar Point Platinum season passes and with the amount of times that we visit, I think it’s quite a good investment.  While we live pretty close to Cedar Point, we often like to create a weekend trip by staying at one of their properties such as Hotel Breakers or Castaway Bay. Since we had never visited before, last fall, we chose the Cedar Point cabins at Lighthouse Point. We had driven by these cute cabins so many times while visiting Cedar Point, but I had no idea all that they offered!

Lighthouse Point at Cedar Point is situated behind the famous Cedar Point park, along the west bank of the Cedar Point Peninsula. While tent camping is not available, this cozy waterfront campground boasts an RV campground with full hook-up sites, 64 cottages and 92 cabins. Their large deluxe cabins can even accommodate up to 10 guests which are perfect for larger families or even for a small group of friends.

Cedar Point Cabins – Grounds:

Lighthouse Point is conveniently located right outside of Cedar Point and within walking distance of the Cedar Point and Soak City gates. If you leave something behind at home, simply stop in at the large and newly updated camp store. They offer snacks, drinks, toiletries and even ice cream. We stopped up there several times in our short weekend to poke around and grab a few souvenirs.

While taking a stroll along the grounds, be on the lookout for the historic 1882 Cedar Point Lighthouse and read about its history on the signs located outside. If you’re looking for a little playtime, challenge a family member to a game of shuffleboard. Want something a bit more quiet? Talk a walk on the pier. We were able to watch the sunset on the gorgeous Lake Erie while boats bounced in the distance.

In the RV and lakeside cottages area, there is a large outdoor pool area (open seasonally). This area includes a whirlpool spa and clean and updated changing rooms, bathrooms and showers. While it wasn’t open while we were there, this looks like a fun place to cool off and relax with family. In fact, we’ve already talked about coming back next summer with our pop-up camper.

lighthouse-point-cedar-point-cabins


Outside the Cedar Point cabins of Lighthouse Point are beautifully manicured walkways, ponds and fountains. You can really tell the attention to detail that Cedar Point added to this area. My kids and I really enjoyed walking around the grounds and I felt safe with them playing outside near our cabin. This area is so pretty that you really do forget that you are at an amusement park as it feels like you are in a cabin in the woods!

Cedar Point Cabins – Inside

In addition to their RV park, Cedar Point’s Lighthouse Point offers lakeside cottages, standard cabins and deluxe cabins. While we toured the others options, we stayed in the two story deluxe cabins. Cedar Point’s 52 deluxe cabins, sleep up to 10 people which was perfect for my family of five with a lot of room to spare.

Right when you walk in the door of the cabin, the living room welcomes you. This area features a 42″ flat-screen TV and two large futons that serve as couches and beds if needed.  These futons aren’t the flimsy 1980’s version, but instead thick and super comfy! I personally think they’d be comfortable even for adults to sleep on. The living room boasts large windows which bring in a lot of light during the day which makes the cabin feel spacious.

The kitchenette is right next to the living room area and features a sink, dorm-sized refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. While dishes and utensils are not provided, we just brought some paper plates and plastic wear and it worked out fine. With the drawers and small shelves above the sink, we had more than enough space for the food and other items that we brought along from home. 

The downstairs offers a lower level bedroom with a queen-size bed and TV. I really liked the details inside the room such as the bedside tables, lamps, and suitcase shelf. Since we were camping, I wasn’t expecting a comfortable bed, but I was genuinely surprised that it was just as comfortable that you’ll find in any high scale hotel room. The extra pillows and high thread count sheets were icing on the cake. Yep, Cedar Point cabins are fully furnished with all linens, so you can leave all that extra stuff at home!

The deluxe cabins at Cedar Point’s Lighthouse Point provide two full-size bathrooms with tub, shower and sink. It also is stocked with fluffy towels and toiletries. For a family of five, it was nice to have two showers and to never have to wait for the bathroom. That was a big plus!

lighthouse-point-cabins-bedroom


My kiddos were really excited to have their own separate bedroom upstairs and to tell you the truth, so were my husband I.  The loft area is just a few steps upstairs with two separate areas on both sides of the steps. It offers two additional queen beds, TVs and coat racks, which made it the perfect place for my boys to play with their toys, watch tv and read books. While the ceilings are very low (an adult can’t stand), this area gave us all our own space which allowed us to enjoy our mini-vacation so much more.

No matter when you stay during the season, you’ll be comfy inside as all the units include adjustable heating and air conditioning. They are also fully furnished with all linens, so you can keep all of those extras at home. Best of all, complimentary wireless internet and cable is also available.

You can save a bundle on food when you bring your own from home. We carefully planned out our meals and snacks so we were able to eat most of the time right in our cabin.  Each deluxe cabin has a patio with a picnic table and charcoal grill. Keep in mind that no utensils are included so be sure to bring a spatula or large fork for turning your food on the grill.

Don’t forget, staying at Cedar Point’s Lighthouse Point has its perks! When staying overnight, you’ll score a deal on Cedar Point tickets. In fact, you won’t find a better price. You can purchase these along with your tickets or at the front desk when you check-in. On top of this, overnight guests can enter the park one hour before the general public. This means you can experience some of the park’s most popular attractions before the lines get too long. This is a HUGE plus in my book!

We had a great time at Lighthouse Point at Cedar Point and will definitely be back. In fact, we are already planning a visit for the early spring with my friend! With these large cabins, there will be more than enough room for both of us and our kiddos. You can’t beat being just steps away from the BEST amusement park on the planet!

What a gorgeous evening to enjoy our vibrant city!  🌽 After dinner, we saw @shuckedmusical musical and y’all… it was a-maize-ing!  From the moment the curtain rose, I was all ears. The jokes were corny in the best way, the cast was pop-pin’, and the music? Straight up buttery smooth.  Big shoutout to the writers for not husking around with the humor—this show shucks in all the right ways. I laughed, I teared up (maybe from the laughter), and I left the theater feeling like one happy kernel.  Whether you're a theater buff or just stalk-ing a good time, go see Shucked. It’s a-maize-ing and I’m not ear-itating when I say that.  It's at Playhouse Square through May 11th!  #hosted #BroadwayCleveland  #ShuckYeah #psqdistrict #ShuckedTour

My sister and I had the BEST time seeing @peterpanthemusical at @playhousesquare and it was pure magic from start to finish! The sets were stunning, the flying scenes were jaw-dropping, and the cast brought all the nostalgia and wonder to life in the most heartwarming way. 💫  From the moment Peter soared onto the stage, we were hooked (pun intended 😂). Captain Hook was delightfully dramatic, the Lost Boys were hilarious, and Tinker Bell? Totally stole the show. It’s the perfect mix of adventure, laughs, and just enough fairy dust to make you believe in magic again. 🏴‍☠️✨  🎭 If you’re in Cleveland, don’t miss it — Peter Pan is only in town through April 13th at Playhouse Square!
