You have to choose your dorm upon arrival?

The website says this:
"Housing is assigned upon arrival at Cedar Point. Employees may choosehousing facility when they arrive based on what is available."
How quick do the commons dorms fill up? What happens if you get stuck with a place you don't like? $h!% out of luck?

If you have people you know that are getting there before you, you can have a room reserved for you with those people. If you don't, upon arrival on your process date you go to, lets say 1500s in Commons and ask for a room. If your late and there all filled up, you go to 1400s usually they have rooms. OR you could go to bayside apartments. If you don't know anyone at all, your best bet is to find some people online or around your area that are coming to CP too because you will get stuck with roomates you have to deal with all summer long. However, if you don't like your roomates and you just can't stand them at all, you can ask to be moved, but that usually doesn't happen unless there are spots in wherever your moving to. All the places are nice, not luxury of any kind but nice enough for a college student/adult to live in for 5-6 months. Hope that helps...

That helps. Thanks! What are the chances that it would be all filled though? If I'm one of the first one's there pretty slim I hope.

You wont be one of the first ones though, there are people living in Bayside before commons opens up, and as soon as they open they flock over. This year I cam down in April and had to live in Bayside for a week before commons opened. I was one of the first ones into the 1500 building, but that is thanks for my manager who let me go on lunch early and get there before everyone else the day it opened.

Yea, 1500s fill up quick, and I mean if you have friends your going to room with and if they are going up before you then have them reserve the room for you because if not your not going to get a room because usually getting your room is one of the last things you do when you process in. I would actually prefer Bayside over Commons. Sure it doesn't have A/C but it's almost like an apt. then dorms. You have everything to yourself and the people you live with. Plus, you have a stove, an actual fridge, and you don't have to walk all the way to the bathroom and you actually have some kind of privacy.

If your one of the first ones there, when I are you going up?

I was thinking about late April early may. After reading a lot of posts on here I've had second thoughts about it. Apparently there's bad bed bugs. I think that's a reason enough not to work there and also rooming with other people. I would like to work at Cedar Point because I think it would be an experience that few people get in their lives, but I'm on the fence.

You can't use "bed bugs" and rooming with people a decision maker. It was the best decision of my life, to work at Cedar Point. I've met some of the coolest people there. Rooming with people at Cedar Point is not as bad as it sounds. I knew no one when I went and I roomed with people I didn't know and everything was fine. You have to go to Cedar Point with an open mind. You meet so many people from different places and different walks of life. If you want to work there, work there but you have to work HARD but after it's all said and done, its the best experience of my life and I cannot see myself without the people I've met there not in my life today.

Omg I got horrible bites that I'm assuming were from bed bugs this summer. I lived in Bayside and I did everything possible to make it stop but I just kept getting bites. Nobody else got them though so it was a little weird. Definitely still work there though, just try to live in Commons.
