Geauga Lake was a great park in many ways. It didn't have the same caliber or number of coasters as Cedar Point, but it had shorter lines and was like a 15-20 minute drive from many of the suburbs. One thing that was kind of awesome about Geauga Lake is that it was practically in the middle of a residential neighborhood. You'd be driving along this nice, wooded street, come around a corner, and - BAM - rollercoaster looming over your car. The Cleveland area / Northeast Ohio must hold some kind of record for abandoned amusement parks. See also: Euclid Beach Park. For a really great documentary on a local landmark, one that you can enjoy even if you didn't grow up around the park, watch Euclid Beach Park is Closed for the Season, although I don't know how easy it is to find.
