LEGOLAND New York Resort, Goshen

We enjoyed the visit very much with a 10 year old and 7 year old. They liked all of the attractions. We're Lego fans. The lines were relatively short. The interactive features and decorations while in line were great. Favorite rides were The Dragon coaster and the pirate ships with water cannons. The hotel is lovely and made to engage kids. They loved our castle room. What could be better: 1 - very limited food and long wait with online ordering required. Since there are no working fountains, getting water was expensive and available in limited places. Refill stations would be nice. 2 - limited benches around ride areas for waiting adults to sit 3 - limited shade 4 - apps required for dining did not show a menu in advance of ordering. Other features were limited and didn't show well on either Apple or Android phone

Bought the fast passes (4 year old)- we had so much fun today! There are some things to work out but they seem like they are doing their best in those areas. The photo people weren’t out today and I paid for the photo pass and I don’t care because a staff member explained it so nicely to me. All of the staff were very kind and helpful. We will be back next year. If you are wondering about taking a 2 year old or smaller 3 year old- it might not be worth the money. Seems like a sweet spot for kids 4-10. Edit- I did take a star off for 3 things that could really improve that I’m unsure is being worked on: 1) don’t charge for parking 2) better customer service beforehand. Before I got the email saying they could switch my tickets I did worry if they would get back to me before the automated systems in 7-10 days when they could switch it to any day. Having the doubt was stressful and having someone to call could have helped with that. 3) with the amount of money you need to pay, the lines are too long. With the difficult way you need to buy tickets, I thought that was a strategy so you don’t let too many people in- it was incredibly busy for a Tuesday. It would be great to add rides to the open space that is all around the park.
