<p><P><P>With 11 amusement parks across North America, <a href="http://cpfoodblog.com/cedar-fair-parks/">Cedar Fair</a> is one of the largest owners and operators of amusement parks in the world. With our home park as Cedar Point, our family&#8217;s plan is to try and visit as many of the other Cedar Fair parks as we can utilizing the Platinum pass benefits. </p>
<p>As a family with kids, trying to plan visits to similar amusement parks to Cedar Point, it becomes imperative as part of the planning process to have an understanding of just how large the other parks are to evaluate our needs. </p>
<p>Realistically, our family can and have done Cedar Point within one day. However, we have learned that it is ideal to try and do all of Cedar Point across two days, especially if you plan on trying to ride all of the roller coasters. With two days at Cedar Point, our family can take our time, bouncing from one kid area to another, casually walking through Frontier Town, and occasionally allowing one of us to ride a roller coaster or two (or in our case, allowing us to run around taking pictures of food and menus). </p>
<p>So lets take a look at some of the other Cedar Fair amusement parks for how they rank in size, according to Wikipedia.</p>

<p>Note: The <a href="http://cpfoodblog.com/interesting-facts-from-the-2017-cedar-fair-investor-presentation/">Cedar Fair Investor Presentation</a> shows a comparison of the developed/developable land for each park. However, some of the acreages are not comparable since they include off-site areas such as a large portion of the Cedar Point owned properties outside the park.</p>
