Great fair! Went with my husband and our two year old. Our toddler loved it and there was alot for him to do! We went on a Saturday their busy time and the lines weren't bad at all. We walked from their free parking lot to the fair itself, it's a bit of a walk but faster than taking their busses We got there before the two busses that were already on the road did.
