Yeah, I live here in Salem, but Canobie has been lacking with the rides, however (with the exception of food) it is a heck of a lot cheaper, and IMO Canobie is a lot nicer with their gardens, cleanliness and not tacky.
Free parking, entrance is half the cost of Six Flags NE at $26 I believe? and no charge for bags in those stupid lockers!
But yes, the rides are just not the same. I really think that the corkscrew should be knocked down and as well as the water park (castaway Island) and replaced with a larger more elaborate rollercoaster. That Castaway island and also those little kids rides (dino bounce or something) near there are so hardly used wen I go and the corkscrew is so dang short!
