The park was purchased from the Fisher family in 2003 by Herschend Family Entertainment Group, famous for Dollywood and Silver Dollar City. Since then the small mountainside park has seen some large expansions.
The park's entrance gate is rather humble, but it serves its purpose and is able to take in big crowds.
The park's arrow mine train, Renegade, is a fantastic ride for those who can't take the bigger rides but still want the thrill of a roller coaster.
Barnstormer is the newest addition to the park. It is an S&S Screamin' Swing themed to a stunt pilot performance gone wrong. As you can see, the pilot had an accident and crashed straight through the old barn.
The park's oldest and best coaster is the Virginia Vortex. Built by renowned coaster designer Anton Schwarzkopf, the ride features two vertical loops and tons of twists and turns making for an amazing experience.
The back half of Virginia Vortex. Plenty of fun to be found here.
The park's newest and first wooden coaster is Crop Duster built by Great Coasters International.
The huge layout is full of quick pops of ejector air, sharp turns, and even a station fly-by.
Speaking of the fly-by...

I'll leave you with a shot of the train and the parachute drop.
