What entrance to use?

I will be going to CP for the first time ever, and I have read that there are four different entrances to the park. Do they all open at the same time? Does it matter which one I use? Is there one that would help me get to Millenium Force quicker than any of the other ones?

THANKS!!!

The marina entrance would probably get you closest to millenium if you ask me. Other people will probably know more, ive only used the front but the marina entrance is closest per the map.

Marina does get you the closest, but if you arn't staying at the resorts, you have to park in the front and walk along Perimeter Rd to get to it.

There's a new parking lot across from Millennium's load and unload station that holds about 100 cars that never fills up. That's the closest parking lot to the Marina Entrance you can park at.

I dont mind the walk, as long as I know for a fact that the entrance will be open. Does anyone know if all the entrances open at the same time?

Thanks again for all the Info!!

It depends what ride you want to go on. I've never gone in the main entrance. I go Soak City entrance so I can get first TTD ride.

All four entrances open at the same time. I've walked to the Marina entrance a couple of times. It's not a bad walk if you're in the parking lot earlier and get an up front spot.

Also, unless you're staying in a resort, or have Joe Cool, the gates will be open 30 minutes before general public are allowed in.

Is the Soak City lot still open now that Soak City is closed?

Cool....Ill probably try to get in through the Marina Entrance then, in order to go straight to Millenium Force.

I go to the marina entrance all the time. It opens along with the other entrances. The Soak City lot is still open. I parked there today.

Where is the best place to park to get to the Marina Entrance? The main lot?

Front left corner of the main lot. When I want to park there, I drive through the resort toll booth. I head back on perimeter rd until i get up to the bus parking area and hang a right into the parking lot.

You know you can get back there from any of the booths, right? Just turn on your turn signal when you get to the first traffic control perosn.

Yes.

When I go in the Marina Entrance I usually park at soak city and take the bus to the Marina Entrance.

Just wondering, are you allowed to walk along the Perimeter Road?

From the main lot up to the marina entrance, there is a marked path that you are allowed to walk along (as far as I know). Beyond that point, I do not know.

Pedestrians are strictly prohibited on Perimeter Road past the Marina Entrance. It's an enforced rule, too.
