Bushkill Park

Bushkill is a great, historic, little park that needs our support. Ride the rides & enjoy the classic skating rink.

This amusement park was everything I expected it to be. I first saw this park on American Pickers TV show and was like I am always in Easton PA visiting One day, I will pass by and take photos. One day, while in Easton PA, I was telling the people in the car about this amusement park n hiw we should look for it as I looked out the car eindow I saw the big clown face I remembered seeing on American Pickers. My friends did not want to stop.they all thought I was telling a tale. So they googled the story. I tell ya they were shocked. Still, we did not head back to see it. While I was in Easton, I asked Google fun things to do with your pups on the weekend I was visiting... you won't believe this 1st thing that popped up was Doggie day at bushkill amusement park. So off we went my 2 pups n I went to bushkill amusement park n had a great time was to be had. They offered free salmon, beef, liver doggie flavored snowcones. We got to ride the train n go on the carsoul. Truly a fun afternoon

What a cute place! Never knew it existed! The word "dinky" comes to mind, but in a charming way. It's old and small, but that helps make it so cute. We went for a birthday party there. What a great idea! Because it's so small, we were able to stick together and ride as a huge group. No charge to get in, which is nice. The staff were not overly friendly, particularly some of the young ride operators, but the kids didn't even notice. Their favorite part of the entire day was the wooden slide inside the old- school funhouse. It was so cute. Run down but cute. Keep an eye on your young children, though. There were quite few instances where the operator didn't even notice safety hazards, like when one walked right by my young toddler "checking" all were ready to go as she was standing up in her seat out of her buckle already. I let myself in the gate to take her off before he started it. All around great time, though. We'll go back as something different to do.

Haunted house and tractor ride was very fun! Actors did an outstanding job! Roller blade area looked fun, food was very fair-oriented. Burgers, hotdogs etc. Rides weren't all active when I was there but looked fun for what they were

Was there for the 120 birthday celebration. It was okay. The small car show was nice. Roller skated for first time in 30+ years. Took my youngest skating for first time. He loved it. The fun house wasn't fully operational as the barrel had to cool off. I expected more. I'm sure in time more will be added. The place has bounced back from like five different floods. Music was available to listen to however it was just too hot. Over all we will skate again. 😁

Amusement Park History. What more do you want and need? The oldest Funhouse in America . This place is a gem. They do a solid Halloween Haunt in the fall. All done with the love of Halloween. Loved the Nostalgia of this park. It is truly stuck in the past, thats what makes it so special.

Bushkill Park is a cute, small, family-friendly amusement park that features the country's oldest funhouse, Hilarity Hall. The park celebrated its 121st birthday in the Summer of 2023, according to news reports. Staff members I interacted with were friendly and knowledgeable. Park admission is free, and guests purchase tickets for rides. Tickets are $1 each, and each ride takes just a few tickets. Some rides at the park include a carousel, Tilt-A-Whirl, a Scrambler-type ride, and a train that takes guests throughout the park. The park also has a large rollerskating rink and concessions. I went mainly for the funhouse, which staff says is more than 100 years old. I wasn't disappointed. The large, wooden rotating barrel near the front of the funhouse wasn't operating on my visit. A staff member told me the park was flooded weeks earlier, and the barrel needed a new motor. I still had a blast walking through the old but well-kept funhouse and enjoyed seeing the old painted murals on the walls. The funhouse also features a rickety staircase that shifts back and forth as you walk up it, a walkway made of rollers, so you have to keep your balance, and my favorite - a large wooden slide that takes you to the funhouse exit. If you are unable to take the slide, there are steps next to it. My visit was brief but definitely worth the 2-hour round trip drive, especially seeing a part of history - the country's oldest funhouse.

Oldest fun house located here! Great place for families with small children! Very quiet and relaxed atmosphere, very inclusive to everyone. No entry fee and the kids just need tickets to ride. Also there's ice cream and roller skating!
