I took a trip this past weekend and my last stop was to this mountain coaster before going home. The man working (long gray beard) was absolutely amazing! We got to talking and I told him I just wanted to take one ride before I had to go and he let me come back around 2 more times (cutting the line) so I could ride some more before having to hurry home. He was so sweet and very conversive making my time there that much better! He even offered to take my picture for me since I was there alone!

Awesome experience for my husband and I! We came in the off season to visit the national park, and my husband and I had to try this. It was about $80 for the both of us to ride the coaster an unlimited amount of times. We each rode separately and together as many times as we wanted. They also take photos and videos available for purchase. I felt comfortable taking a selfie during the automatic portions of the coaster, but would not reccomend taking photos when it is busy. Families with young children would definitely love this!!

After riding all the local coasters, we still have moonshine at the top of the list! Their armband makes it the cheapest to ride multiple times, great for our 9 year old who could have rode from sun up to sun down. Pete aka uncle Billy made the experience even better by being so kind. He made sure we had fun and encouraged our daughter to ride by herself. We’ll definitely be coming back to Moonshine!
