There is no available space at CP property for my family, for my vaca.....

Can I pay the $10, to park at Soak City, and use the beach ?

^huh?

Try a hotel or campground near CP. There are plenty in the area.

I don't understand the title of the topic and how your question relates. But Yes once you pay the toll the beach is open to you and your family.

Where were you planning on staying at?

I think Lala is implying that if they pay the 10 bucks can they sleep on the beach

Wow, this thread title sounds like it should be a track on an Fall Out Boy, or other pop-punk/emo album...

There's a Budget Inn, if you pass the left-hand turn to the causeway off of 250 (correct me if I'm wrong please, I haven't been in a while, I mean the intersection where that 50's themed bowling alley and the off-track betting bar are) go up about 2 miles and it's on your left, it's only about 30 bucks a night for a room with two beds. It's no Hilton, but it's comfortable. Also, I know many of the campsites aren't open yet but you can get yourself a tent lot at any that are very reasonably, but then you've got to look at the ancillary costs (tents, sleeping bags, supplies).

Try planning ahead next time.

Or, choose one of the hotels around Cedar Point.

?

This makes no sense.

It would be nice if the OP would come back and clarify for us.

As a tip for any other new posters, don't ask your question in the title, summarize it. Use your post as the place to explain your situation and ask your question.

UUUUUMMM!! what?

I got it.

No, lala, you may not stay on the beach.

You wanted to sleep on the beach? Haha :)

Thats not a bad idea. LOL. I would think it would be fun.

One of the closest motels to CP without being on park property is the Econolodge on Cleveland Road across from the Thirsty Pony. I booked there around this time of year for 4 nights in July and found no problems with availability. Its a nice place, has a pool of its own, and you can catch the Sandusky Hotels shuttle if you go across the street to the Thirsty Pony.

I wonder if lala (hard to keep a straight face while typing that one) is a west coaster. In some parks in California, campers can pitch their tents right on the beach -- or at least they used to, as of 1999. I'm guessing it may still be the case.

Camping on Cedar Point's beach in the spring...hmmm, I don't know which would be worse, the Mayflies or the pretty white droppings.

Those aren't parks Ensign, they're communes.

And don't worry, patchouli scares away the mayflies and covers the smell from the birds crapping on them.

Mmmm . . . dung covered mayfly. Of course, you have to let them dry in the sun for a few hours until they get nice and crispy warm.

Sort of gives a whole new definition to the term, Dippin' Dots.

This thread is really funny. The title alone has me laughing. Why isn't there any available space at CP property for Lala's family? I don't understand.

I think someone's pullin' our leg.

^^ - because the timeframe they are looking at is sold out. Not terribly unusual during the summer, and also one of the reasons we haven't seen many real resort upgrades. When you're selling out year after year, why improve?
