In this episode of Look At This!, Desmond Shaw flies us to what began as a stand on the side of the road and has since grown into a beloved local theme park.
The thing about Knott's Berry farm is its family-friendly and affordable you don't have to take a mortgage out to take the kids for a good days fun. And think of all the good food you get LOL
Correct and they also do not have the theming, shows and service as Disney. Instead you have a motel.6 on property and sub par theming, not for the whole family.
@Adiel Alfonso quality?? The last huge thing they built which cost a huge amount of money was galaxy's edge. Next year we have Mickey's runaway and a reimagined toon Town. All night times spectaculars are up and running..Knott's doesn't have any of those things, and you wonder why Knott's is cheaper?
@Adiel Alfonso then why are you even commenting? Knott's is not even in Florida . We all know WDW sucks and Disneyland resort is the superior experience. Friendlier staff, more attractions with 2 parks compared to 4 parks. Better weather . I never had a problem with the reservation system, all dates I wanted to go I got. Genie plus was no different then max pass in California. And by the way critter country is just a mall ( a shop and one ride which is good . It's a land that's it. I can say that about any land. ..
Disney would be detrimental in Buena Park. I lived in BP for 22 years. Moved to Brea 3 years ago. Things look up at a few decades lol BP is nicer looking now! Even BP high school. Wonder why they made it high class now, was kinda ghetto but very memorable back when I was a child. Grateful nonetheless!
Back in the 60s when my husband and I were dating we would go just for the chili dogs. There was a little cable car, ghost town. stagecoach, train and the carousel. Across the street there were still berry fields. There was no fence or admission. The fence went up when the hippies started to stay overnight. Up went the fence and admission. It wasn't expensive, but we didn't like it. We have always preferred Knotts over Disneyland.
Love knotts... Cloud 9 & Studio K... The log ride was a little piece of home for me! Back in the early 70's in Bolingbrook, IL was a indoor park, ( Old Chicago). And once it was closed down for good the logs were sold to knotts! First time visiting Knotts I noticed the name on the inside of a log me and mom were in! Brought back some good memories!!
We lived in SoCal 1963/64. Knot’s was our favorite place to go for amusement without spending a lot of money. It was simpler back then. Walter Knott walked the grounds and Cordelia Knott ran the restaurant. And the boysenberry pie? To die for.
We really enjoy Knotts Berry Farm.I really love the old time Western atmosphere.It’s absolutely beautiful during Christmas time.Also the special events like The taste of Fall are awesome.Something for everyone going on every season.Knotts has always been warm and inviting and not to mention more affordable for all families.Thank you Knotts and Cedar fair for enabling all families to enjoy your park at reasonable prices.🎢🐓Love that 🍗🍇🥧
So many memories just from watching this. I used to LOVE going to Knott's back in the day when I was a kid! I remember when I lived in OC, my dad & I would spend the day there on a Saturday, and then we'd head over to the old Movieland Wax Museum right down the street the following Sunday! Then our family would all get together the following weekend and head on over to the nearby Medieval Times for dinner & that AMAZING tournament show! (it's still there to this day, but sadly the MWM isn't...) The best thing about it was that all 3 locations were right there on the same block (Beach Blvd.) so we could just sort of hop from one location to the next, which was alot of fun ... and things were a LOT cheaper back then! I really miss those days... 😥
My mother used to talk about going to Knott's Berry farm when it was still a Berry farm every other Sunday for dinner when she was little. Look at it now, Knott's Berry Farm is proof all you need to be successful is a dream, a little imagination, and willpower. Everything else is secondary.
I have had the season pass for knotts for around 3 years and it expired about a month ago, but those were the best 3 years of my life. I had so much fun on the bigger rides and oh my god the chicken diner is just perfection its so good, so glad disney never bought knotts because they would have simplified the rides so much for little kids 😭😭
I worked here in high school and has been a season pass holder for a very long time. Knott's is special to me and my family. Sure, it's close and convenient but it's a actually family lol. My daughter considers Knott's a part of the family. There are ways to avoid long lines and waits, just come on a non holiday weekday like April 10th and you can do a lot. Or if you like the crowds and want to enjoy Knott's at it's full potential, visit on a summer's Saturday morning. It's the perfect park with perfect food and boysenberry punch. I really appreciate Knott's and their history.
If they would have sold Knotts to Disney the price per ticket would be 40% higher and they would have expanded, causing 100’s of families to lose their homes.
Because when they built Disneyland ,DCA and all the Disney parks caused families to lose their homes 🤡🤣😂 . It's called city ordinances and zones ya clown 🤡
I remember going with my dad in the 60's when Knott's was free! My uncle worked there and several cousins! Later in life I was a monster once during the Haunted Knott's Berry Farm!
It's hard to believe that Knott's Berry Farm is still one of SoCal's greatest secrets! There have been numerous times on numerous visits when people from out of state or out of country would ask me to take their picture and say to me, "How long has this been here?!" I would shock them by saying, "Since before Disneyland." I love Knott's Berry Farm!
it’s not we recently went there it’s under organized and wouldn’t let my disabled cape-able son ride the rides i spent all day for my son to get on the rides since it was his first theme park well i ain’t stepping out on that property again we will be going to universal studios from now on
I love Knotts. Grew up in Fullerton. Great memories in the 1980s. I also love Cedar Fair. Check out their epic parks like Carowinds and Cedar Point. Glad they bought Knotts. The legendary Berry Farm is in good hands.
Great video CBS- Look at This! Thanks for sharing. 🙂 We love visiting Knott’s Berry Farm especially in the summer. It’s an amazing place with lots of fun things to do and one of our favorite places to spend time when in the LA area.
Knotts will forever defeat Disney is customer experience. Knotts is business OF COURSE, but they’re not gouging , they don’t charge you thousands of dollars to take your family out for the day and honestly you can tell they care about their customers. Huge difference between them and Disney. SO glad they never got ahold of Knotts!
They are not gouging? Is that why the tasting cards continue to increase in price while the tasting choices decrease? Is that why the haunt is more expensive then ever before?. Is that why they charge how much to skip the lines?
My wife son and I went in 2007 and had a BLAST!! We love the family friendly atmosphere there and it's NOT all about money, unlike Disney where they charge you for EVERYTHING!!! It was fun, not stressful. We def gotta get back and do it again!!
We went there last week on a Sunday. Limited crowds, had a great time, stayed at the hotel. Got up to leave on Monday and I think every school in LA was showing up. It was wave after wave of school buses and I have never seen crowds like that outside of Knotts waiting to get in.
I love Knotts we used to stay down the street at Embassy Suites as a kid in the 90s I would open our window and listen to the park goers scream on the tower drop while I was playing Tupac🙏😄
@@irisfilmproductions yes I am gonna rent a small car..so I am gonna save extra..thanks for the heads up..it sucks that it is that much..here in TX it's 4.69 right now...and rising..😬
I was thinking I might do that. The beginning of September (after Labor Day weekend) is the best time to go. Crowds are so little you can get through everything by half the day. It’s nice to be able to relax and enjoy the scenery then hop on some rides in between. When I did it a couple years ago I sat on every row on Xcelerator 🤣
@@linknavi1 thank you it's nice to hear that .I was actually worried about huge crowds..I booked my Stay in pasadena California for September 23-28 so I'm definitely going to both knotts and magic mountain..I am so so excited about going..thanks for that info
Yupp Knott's have always and till today my #1 theme park ...I REMEMBER WHEN WE HAD PLANNED ON GOING TO DISNEY FOR A FAMILY OF 5 JUST THE ENTRANCE CAME OUT TO WHAT YOU PAY FOR A CAR AT AN AUCTION.....KNOTT'S WAS SUPER AFFORDABLE BACK THEN ...TODAY IDK BUT MOST LIKELY WILL BE GOING BACK SOON
From someone who visits pretty regularly, I gotta say it truly is a fun place to visit, however the management there is terrible when it comes to crowd/line control, and the tickets fluctuate daily. Sometimes it's 55 bucks, other times it's 90 instead. Definitely wouldn't recommend coming in the summer, very hot and has long lines
Knotts Berry Farm is an amazing place with sweet people and a very nice history! If you ever want to research the rides they also have an interesting history ❤🍇
The Calico Railroad opened in 1952, the Calico Mine Ride in 1960, both are permanent attractions that pre-date Timber Mountain Log Ride which opened in 1969.
My home park!!! Love the rides, especially Xcelerator! If you're ever in SoCal, get a funnel cake, ride Xcelerator, Ghost Rider, Montezooma's Revenge, and Silver Bullet! All the other rides are great, but check out those ones early!
I appreciate Knotts berry farm for being what it is, that is just an “amusement” park, they don’t follow the notion in having exceeding popularity to progress and all the side business that businesses such as Disney believe people want in an amusement park
I mean unfortunately Cedarfair ended up tearing out "The Kingdom Of The Dinosaurs" and "The Haunted Shack", two well loved historical attractions at Knott's Berry Farm. So much for not tearing down what Knott's build🙄, I have many childhood memories at Knott's Berry Farm that includes those two attractions, i miss them so much.🙁😔 I tell my kid's whenever we go how it used to be there during my childhood. I also remember they even used to have a live dolphin attraction show🐬🐳, Good time's.
Unfortunately, Cedar Fair didn't have much of a choice. Both were in need of heavy repairs. The Haunted Shack was so rotten that it was about to fall over. And neither met ADA requirements. The attractions would have had to be rebuilt from the ground up and meet all ADA requirements. Not sure how that would even work for an attraction like The Haunted Shack. Thankfully, Cedar Fair has not only preserved Ghost Town, they've expanded it over the years. I'm certain that Disney would have shoved all their intellectual properties into the park. As they did with ruining one of their own parks, DCA. Which is now Marvel/Pixar land.
@@AmericasCoasterNetwork Yes so i was told, however rebuilding them both from the ground up would have been nice. Yes I love ghost town!,🙂 they indeed have preserved it nicely and I love the extension especially during Knott's Scary Farm. No doubt Disney would have done worse, i completely agree with you. Im thankful the Knott's family didn't sell to Disney. Just wish Cedar Fair would bring back those two attractions, it was much better then what's there now.
@@AmericasCoasterNetwork preserved ghost town by having a roller coaster fly over head? And since Disney didn't buy the park how can you predict what they would have done. 🤡🙄
This park does not live in the shadow of disney. This park has a different goal and audience than disney. In terms of thrill rides disney lives in the shadow of this park.
Knott's Berry Farm and Six Flags Magic Mountain are competitor rivals theme parks one Snoopy and the Peanuts gang the other one has Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tunes🎢👍
I read about Knott's Berry Farm from a flyer in a hotel lobby during a business trip. But my Californian colleagues never mentioned it, nor friends that went to SoCal for leisure. How come? When my family went to LA on vacation, we made sure to go there and it was one of the best things we ever did. It is so underrated!
Used to absolutely love going to kbf because it was so fun. Disneyland too but at a different level. Then years later took my own kids and it must have been a bad night because it seemed like gang night 1996 I guess. Anyways to make a long story longer I should probably like Disney better since it was my first job. I think my junior or senior year. Worked at jungle cruise and it was a blast after I got over the speaking in public thing. I asked for canoes across the way but it was supposedly full. And I had never been on jungle cruise. Ever. So blindsided.
I went on vacation and stayed a few blocks away from it. It looked cool, I didn't get a chance to go. We went to Disneyland haha . Ima have to go next time I'm in California . Buena park is a nice area seems
Sad to see how it’s becoming honestly I live in Buena Park and it’s really not the same people are fighting constantly. I hope the family safety comeback
Always love Knott's. Glad Disney never got its claws into it.
Nasty pedo claws
Chapek would have flushed this park down the toilet. Thank god that never happened.
they tried.
@@TrashBulldogProductions because chapeke was in charge back.then??🙄🤡
Imagine Mickey and Pluto at Knott's.
By far my favorite theme park in SoCal. The entire package is just overall enjoyable. The rides, food, shows, etc.
The shows are so great especially the cowboy shootout my fav!
Me too. I was 4 years old when, I first went to Knott’s berry farm.

Knott’s will always be special to this California girl who, at this time,doesn’t
live in CA. I always try to bring my kids there when we visit CA.
Cedar Fair changed the park's legacy more than Disney would have.
Train, stage coach, burro rides and mine train predate the log ride.
if Disney had gotten a hold of it, admission would be out of sight, you know like Disneyland!
Glad Disney didn’t take over tickets would be $10,000 for a kid. Love knotts fun and affordable nice water park
I'm crying 😅🤣😂. Facts!
@dre So true! If Disney take it over you have to apply for a credit card just to be able to get in the park!
You can get 10 yearly passes for the price of 1 at Disney. And you can include the yearly meal pass. Truly a deal!
And you know this because?? The prices are based off of offerings and demand 🙄
@@gizmo7365 yeap a deal. With stinky bathrooms, sub par theming and riff raff in the park🙄
That chicken, corn and mashed potatoes at Mrs. Knotts 🔥🔥🔥🔥
OMG yessss 🤤🤤🤤
Knotts is actually my favorite theme park
Yes they're smart to sell it to cedar Fair I had the right idea Disney would have f***** that Park up

The smell too
well ofcourse when you're grown why would you wanna go ride some little tea cups lmao
Like the recent fights?
We lived a couple blocks away, and there was NO FENCE around the Farm. And much of Orange County was berry farms all the way to Huntington Beach.

I am so glad they didn’t sell it to Disney!👍👍😘!
Hands down better then Disneyland.
Looks Souls Cool Amusement Park in Buena Park, California USA 🇺🇲 it's Knott's Berry Farm .
Way better than disneyland
Used to absolutely love going to kbf because it was so fun. Disneyland too but at a different level. Then years later took my own kids and it must have been a bad night because it seemed like gang night 1996 I guess. Anyways to make a long story longer I should probably like Disney better since it was my first job. I think my junior or senior year. Worked at jungle cruise and it was a blast after I got over the speaking in public thing. I asked for canoes across the way but it was supposedly full. And I had never been on jungle cruise. Ever. So blindsided.
Looks like a good theme park.
I went on vacation and stayed a few blocks away from it. It looked cool, I didn't get a chance to go. We went to Disneyland haha . Ima have to go next time I'm in California . Buena park is a nice area seems
Do people still go to Knotts Berry Farm??
Is Buena Park a nice place to live?
I used to live there. I would not recommend it. It’s not horrible just ok.
@@Tonimaroni2BeKindToAnimals Compared to what? Where’d you move to?
If you have money it can be a very nice place to live. @Brooklyn.
@@BrooklynBaby100 I was 5 minutes from knotts.
Lots of crime has moved to Buena Park sadly
ok, why does hangtime look like its running so fast in this shot??? or is it just me.
Sad to see how it’s becoming honestly I live in Buena Park and it’s really not the same people are fighting constantly. I hope the family safety comeback
The hotel is one of the best.
The peanuts crew lives there and only there so awesome
that’s awesome
This is nice. I never knew the park's origin.
I was there yesterday
Great American story!!
My favorite theme park, second only to Disneyland. If I still lived in SoCal, I would still have an annual pass.
Foos be robbing out there.
Who..the park itself?
