I would like to share/vent about my experiences going to Cedar Point as a queer person…

I go solo to Cedar Point at least once a year. I think I am a visibly queer man, I am not a particularly masculine person when it comes to mannerisms or dress.

I usually encounter a couple incidents each visit where people make some kind of comment, though never directed at me personally. Usually it comes from groups of younger guys that make comments/jokes where gayness is the joke. Some examples have been people yelling “I love it up the butt” on coaster trains, referring to things as being “gay”, and using the work “f*ggot”. Again none of those have been directed towards me personally, but it’s still is frustrating to hear people make queerness the joke.

Also I’ve noticed an increase in language like that the last few seasons that I’ve been.

I’m interested to hear from other queer park goers on how your experience has been.

$175 for Fast Lane Plus!? That’s ridiculous.

Am I trippin or did it used to be $100ish?!

I went on May 12 so a few coasters were closed still so I felt like it was necessary to get Fast Lane to make the most of the day. $175 is wild.

So I stayed at Breakers for the first time and I didn’t love it.

I booked it because it was less than $100 more than Cedar Point express, so I thought why not!

**pros**

- the drive around the peninsula is awesome, I’ve never seen the coasters from those angles before!

- the common areas of the property are gorgeous

- the bar, Starbucks, restaurants, and gift shop are nice to have all on property, and they’re open later than the park

**cons**

- the rooms are incredibly basic, the beds don’t seem any different than CP Express

- the hall ways are dated, and the carpets are horrendous

- personally I do not think it was that convenient, the distance I had to walk from the Magnum entrance to my room was far, it was probably about the same distance or even more than it would take to walk from the main gate to my car, and it’s definitely not worth what’s usually hundreds of dollars more to save you a two minute drive to CP Express.

I enjoyed my stay but I don’t think I would stay again unless it was around the same price as CP Express.
