Stricker's Grove

Old school rides with the small town service. I just wish they were opened to the public more than they are.

It's a cute little place to have a private party! Kinda run down but has a lot of charm! Kids love it!

Nice little get away for families with young kids. My company does a family event here once a year and my kids love it. Small coasters, state fair like rides/games, and a small train that circles the whole property. Check the weather before you go and you'll have lots of fun.

Sticker's Grove always provides a fun family atmosphere for our annual picnic. Rides are great, food is awesome, and tons of fun. Each year they have a open public welcome day and it's great. A fun train goes all the way around the park too! A gem of the Ross/Miamitown/Cincinnati community, Stricker's Grove is always a fun time!

This is one of the best family places around. It's only open 4 days out of the year to the public unfortunately. This place is like a carnival with rollercoasters. There's around 5 dedicated kiddy rides for only kids, and then some family rides; such as a carousel, ferris wheel, dumbo ride, and flying scooters. There are 2 rollercoasters there, one of which is great for kids just getting the feel of them. There's also a 1/2 mile train ride that takes you around the property. even for a thrill seeker, the coasters have old fashioned buzz bars, and give you plenty of "air-time" to more than enjoy yourself! Plus most of the days they offer free parking, soft drinks, cotton candy and even free sno-cones (depending on the time of year). They also have a dedicated skee-ball arcade, regular arcade and good old fashion carnival games.They shut the rides down for an hour around dinner time, and you can either eat in the park (a hamburger plus chips, potato salad, and corn on the cob or baked beans runs you around $5) or you can bring in a cooler, tableclothe, picnic blanket, drinks, food, just about anything (except alcohol, which they do serve there) and picnic in their grove full of picnic tables or under their spacious shelter house. They also have a huge banquet hall for private parties/corporate picnics. I almost want to dock it a star for only being open 4 days, but even going once a season is well worth it!!

Great place for families and little kids. I have three boys: 6, 3 and 1. The 6 and 3 year olds have a blast riding boats, cats, rockets, the whip, the scrambler, elephant airplanes, carrousel and train. My 1 year old can only ride the whip, train and carrousel. It is only open for certain locations such as a school event or when it's rented out. It's only open to the general public a few times a year. You are welcome to bring on your own food and drink which o recommend as the lines get very long for food. Putt putt is available for additional $3 per person.

Stricker's Grove is a family-owned small amusement park and picnic grove in Crosby Twp, in the western reaches of Hamilton County, outside Cincinnati. Considering the presence of Kings Island and the downsized yet very alive Coney Island, Stricker's remains somewhat obscure, even to the locals. Different than the other larger, more commercial amusement facilities, Stricker's is primarily a private facility that is rented out by companies, unions, organizations, and the like. However, there are usually four days a year that they are open: July 4, the second Sunday in August, Labor Day in September, and a Sunday in October.There is a good assortment of flat rides you expect to see at a classic amusement park, as well as two wooden roller coasters. One is the adult-sized Tornado: small in today's standards, but still a good deal of fun. There's also the Teddy Bear, a junior-sized woodie based upon the one once found long ago at Coney Island. A train ride encircles the perimeter of the facility, giving a nice, scenic ride. Many of the people who run the rides, I believe, are a step up from your traveling carnies- these are down home, friendly, family people you see.There is a large picnic shelter as well as many tree-lined picnic tables that make up the grove section. You can bring your own picnic food, or order grilled food- delicious and affordable! On the public days (excluding the 4th of July), soft drinks are free. There are also games of skill, an arcade, and a miniature golf course, too.I have to admit it's not the most charming place, and the restrooms seem to be dirty when I've been, but in this day and age, Stricker's is unusual, and that what makes it worthwhile, for an afternoon/evening of family fun!

I love me some Strickers Grove! A great little place to bring your kids. It's not really near anything, nor is it open much to the public but the if you do go, it's probably with your church, or work or the like so you'll probably know most people there.If your child is under 36 inches , you're SOL for most rides. Above that, you either ride with them or they can ride alone. Free soft drinks and popcorn save you the worry of buying stuff for the kids and the, wasting it.

Went to Strickers with the family and loved it. The whole family loved it. Very intimate safe setting. Very family friendly. Owners on site very personable. Very helpful. My son lost his hat on one of the coasters and I told him it was gone. The owner made it a personal effort to return his hat to him and was just another circumstance that made our day perfect. They were not very busy and we rode everything multiple times. Food was good and moderately priced and staff was super friendly. You see the owners spelling employees for breaks and you could really tell how much they care. My family has been a few times but today was the first time I was able to go with them. I beleive we couldn't have had a better day anywhere else. I mentioned to my brother it was making the same kind of memories we had as kids at Americana and they actually bought, own and run a couple of rides that was origionally at Americana. Will definitely return and would personally encourage anyone else with kids to do the same. Thank you so so so much to the folks at Strickers for such a memorable, fun and perfect day.ThanksRay Nye

Had a great time here on the family day on August 10th! The rides are all fun for the whole family. The airtime in the last row on the Tornado rollercoaster is insane. Don't miss it if you love roller coasters! You also can't beat the food prices. They had 1 dollar hotdogs, popcorn, and cotton candy... Not to mention they had free soft drinks all day as well. Sticker's Grove is like a step back in time. So if you are looking for a fun inexpensive day doing things the whole family will enjoy make sure you visit sticker's on their next public operating day.
