Winner: Cedar Point
Affectionately known as “America’s Roller Coast,” Cedar Point offers teens and tweens independence while navigating the park themselves, making their way through more than a dozen high-speed roller coasters, experiencing thrill rides, and even taking a splash break at Cedar Point Shores water park. Stay at Cedar Point all day, and it’s likely that you’ll still run out of time to do it all.
