Cedar Point Travel: Step By Step Guide
We are starting the summer of 2021 with Autism Friendly Vacation Spots.
This week’s spotlight vacation is Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Ohio.
Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, is an American summertime tradition on the Lake Erie shore. The resort is home to 70 rides, including exhilarating attractions like Steel Vengeance®, Maverick®, Valravn® and Millennium Force®, the Cedar Point Shores Waterpark, family-friendly live shows, delicious dining, a mile-long beach, on-site hotels and more.
Cedar Point is the Roller Coaster Capital of the World with loads of fun rides, 18 acre waterpark, boardwalk and so much more!
We love that Cedar Point has created so many ways to accommodate guests with autism to provide an amazing park experience.
Make sure to put Cedar Point on your summer bucket list. You’ll be so glad you did!
