We’re getting ready to open for the season on Friday, May 22, 2026 (Memorial Day Weekend)!

We’re excited to share that Joey and his crew at Swanson Solutions LLC are building us a brand-new canopy. They’ve been fantastic to work with. Joey is very professional, communicative, and a fair price. We highly recommend checking them out! Stay tuned for updates as we continue making improvements in honor of the three businessmen who started this tourist attraction. Eugene R Carollo(my dad), Albert H Carollo(my uncle), and James Goulette- a state representative at the time.

We can’t wait to welcome you, come check us out this season! 🙂
