Yes, I was one of those cynics who turned my nose up at the very thought of Silver Dollar City. I was wrong. The following advice is from an adult doing SDC with a spouse. I don't know how parents and kids do it. I defer to their knowledge. Here's the thing-it is tree-shaded. It has water fountains. But it... more

I will obviously be going "against the grain" here but...I felt that Silver Dollar City was very expensive for what you got, and that it is vastly over-rated. I have been to Disneyland and Disneyworld numerous times plus Knotts and Dollywood and Silver Dollar City is just a poor immitation. First, there was a four mile long traffic line-up that... more

My husband and I (both in our early 50s) got a great deal with 2 days for the price of 1 tickets in August. We visited on August 24 and 28. The first day we were there, we did not wait in line for any ride at all and had a blast! We visited Echo Hollow for the free concert... more

Loved Silver Dollar City- it has been two years and I want us to go back soon! If you have younger kids- it is time consuming- so I recommend getting the two day for the price of one ticket! We were able to fit in everything and a nap, dinner and swimming in our place at the awsome STILL WATERS... more

I have been reading other reviews on SDC. Let me tell you some facts. This is not just an amusement park(rides), it is quite an experience. I have only had good experiences here (10years). I have yet to run into a rude or unpleasant employee, if you want healthy food-it is available, the same reason the ride entrance is not... more

I first went to Silver Dollar City when I was 15, then when I was 31, and now at 37 years old. This place has changed to become more of an amusement park than it used to be. I would say it is drifting further away from its theme park atmosphere of arts and crafts, etc. There are some nice... more

Being from the East Coast, I have never experienced a theme park quite like Silver Dollar City. If you are a first timer, but are familiar with Disney's Magic Kingdom, think Frontierland on steriods set in beautiful wooded hills. I used to think Busch Gardens Virginia was the prettiest theme park until I came here. It is really CLEAN! There... more

SDC is a very unique and interesting park, and our kids age 7 and 4 enjoyed it every bit as much as our trip to DisneyWorld earlier this year. For one thing, it isn't quite as expansive as WDW, which means walking to and through the park isn't most of the battle. Additionally, there is the true-historical, educational 19th century... more

Tree shaded theme park. That was refreshing. Get a locker if you don't want to soak your cell phone. The water rides are bath tub wet. It cost 50 cents for each visit. We used it all day costing us three bucks. Well worth it. We went on a day after rain checks were issued. It was very crowded in... more

This was our first visit to SDC and it just happened to be on a day that heat advisories were in effect and we were sweating before we got there. I was very surprised that we had to park so far away and wait for a shuttle to take us to the park, especially since this park is in the... more
