BEWARE!
Do
not
waste
your
money
here!
If
you’re
in
the
Denver
area,
go
to
Convergence
Station
instead!!
I
had
way
more
fun
at
Meow
Wolf
and
I
didn’t
have
any
bad
experiences
there.
I
can’t
say
the
same
for
my
trip
to
Elitch
Gardens.
I’ve
been
to
dozens
of
amusement
parks
all
across
the
nation,
and
this
is
the
worst
of
all!
Over
half
the
rides
were
closed.
Hummm…
my
ticket
wasn’t
discounted
despite
the
majority
of
the
park
not
opening
the
day
I
went.
The
rides
are
old,
rusting,
and
poorly
cared
for
-
evidence
by
the
newly
renovated
wooden
coaster
being
down
again
today
I
was
there.
The
few
rides
that
were
open
had
awful
ride
operators.
The
workers
were
so
slow
and
disorganized!!
Like
most
parks,
there
was
line
cutting.
But
at
Elitch
Gardens,
line
cutting
was
not
rare,
it
was
abundant
&
encouraged.
Why
pay
for
a
skip
the
line
pass
when
you
can
just
skip
the
regular
line
with
no
recourse?
While
in
line
for
coasters,
twice
a
ride
opp
let
me
though
the
loading
gates
only
for
my
seat
to
be
taken
by
“VIP
riders”.
It
was
ridiculous!
They
need
to
be
trained
better!!
I
also
witnessed
an
adult
assaulting
a
minor
in
line
for
the
Mind
Eraser,
which
was
pretty
horrific.
I
lost
my
medical
device
at
the
park,
which
I
know
is
my
fault
for
not
securing
it
properly.
However,
Elitch
Gardens
called
me
the
same
day
to
tell
me
that
they
found
it
&
it
was
intact,
yet
they
refused
to
let
me
come
retrieve
the
that
day
or
even
that
week.
As
don’t
live
in
the
state,
I
asked
if
they
would
mail
it
to
me.
They
said
yes,
but
they
never
actually
did.
This
park
let
me
down
every
step
of
the
way.
I’m
so
disappointed
in
them.
The
few
food
vendors
and
shops
that
were
open,
were
grossly
overpriced,
even
by
theme
park
standards!
The
side
of
fries
were
okay,
but
really
not
worth
the
price
I
paid.
The
soda
I
got
wasn’t
even
carbonated,
gross!
I
waited
in
line
for
the
Spider
ride
for
over
an
hour.
The
ride
operators
left
over
half
the
ride
empty
each
ride
cycle
for
no
reason.
Then
a
girl
got
injured
on
the
ride
and
it
shut
down
for
the
rest
of
the
day.
All
of
us
in
line
were
told
to
leave,
with
not
even
a
skip
the
line
pass
to
make
the
horrible
day
a
little
better.
Overall,
Elitch
Gardens
is
a
total
waste
of
money!
I’m
so
mad
at
myself
for
wasting
a
day
at
this
terrible
place
when
there
are
so
many
better
things
I
could
have
done
in
Denver.
Please
don’t
make
my
same
mistake!!!
Go
literally
anywhere
else
and
you’ll
have
a
much
better
time!
EDIT:
Update:
I
appreciate
the
park
management
getting
back
to
me.
My
medical
device
was
finally
returned
after
several
weeks
&
park
ticket
cost
was
refunded
without
me
having
to
ask.
I
thought
that
was
very
nice
of
them.
Over
all,
I’m
glad
to
have
this
experience
behind
me,
and
I
hope
Elitch
Gardens
takes
all
feedback
seriously
and
makes
changes
for
the
better
in
the
future.
The
guests
who
come
to
this
park
deserve
better,
but
only
time
will
tell.
