If you’re a regular around here or on my Facebook page, you know that I’m a little obsessed in love with all things Cedar Point.  My family and I get season passes each year (read why I think Cedar Point Platinum passes are a great value) and practically spend 6 months a year out there.  From spring to fall, Cedar Point has so much to offer!

Along with the cooler temps, Halloweekends have arrived.  Halloweekends at Cedar Point has just the right mix of spooky thrills for those who dare and pint sized fun for the little ones.  Each weekend through October 27th you spend the whole day creating memories, in fact there is so much to see and do you may want to stay for the weekend.

Yes, my littlest is sticking out his tongue…3 year olds!

Last weekend we were able to visit Cedar Point three days in a row as I was there for a Blogging Conference.  It was so nice to spend the day or evening in the park without having to drive home.  It was my first stay at the Hotel Breakers and boy did I have a gorgeous view to wake up to each morning.  I love how the Hotel was decked out in Halloween decorations.  Cedar Point never holds back!

If you are looking at extended your stay, I’d highly suggest one of the Cedar Point resorts.  If you stay at any of their properties you’ll get a few perks, including early entry into the park, discounted tickets, free parking, and courtesy shuttle service.  We loved the convenience of having two nearby entrances into the park as well as the option to be shuttled to the front of the park also.  Hotel Breakers is right in the middle of the park and close to everything.

Our little ones remember Cedar Point Halloweekends vividly from previous years and couldn’t wait to head over to the Howl-O-Palooza area on Friday night.  They couldn’t decide whether to go to the hay maze or Magical House on Boo Hill first – tough decision.  The Magical House on Boo Hill is a family friendly walk-though house with many decorations to see.  There are no worries of things jumping out at you and your kids being frightened, even my three year old loves it.  At the end of your walk the young children will receive a small bag of candy.  The hay maze looks slightly different this year but still tons of fun.  I seriously lost count how many times they went through.  I appreciate that this activity is something we can do with our boys or something they can do on their own while we sit down and chat.

While there, we were also able to check out the new area called Trick or Treat with the Dinosaurs.  For a small fee of $5 your children can see more than 50 life-sized dinosaurs, snag some candy or small toys, participate in crafts and more.  We really enjoyed this area and I loved that the kiddos were able to snag a couple non-candy treats also.  Checking out the dinosaur’s different Halloween outfits made us laugh and we all loved picking out our favorites.  Read more about our first trip to Dinosaurs Alive at Cedar Point.

On Sunday my in-laws were able to come up to the park.  Since this was their first visit in over 20 years there was a lot to see.  They were amazed by how much the park has changed over the years but were happy to still see their old favorites such as the Mine Ride, the train, and Cadillac Cars.  That’s one of the best things I love about Cedar Point. there is FUN for everyone of any age!

Looking for a scarier day out?  Cedar Point has you covered!  With a ton of haunted houses, scare zones and even shows you’ll have a screaming good time!
