It's still a smaller park, it is still "in" Cleveland and you still can't get there from anywhere, surrounded as it is by a combination of speed traps and poor traffic engineering common to Northeast Ohio. Cedar Point will continue to do what Cedar Point does, and while this may make Geauga Lake a more effective competitor to Cedar Point, I don't think it in any way diminishes Cedar Point's appeal. If anything, it might make Northeastern Ohioans attend all amusement parks more frequently.
