Cedar Point announces more changes

On October 24, 2017, Cedar Point announced that the last guest had officially checked out of Sandcastle Suites Hotel. Sandcastle opened in 1990 as a new beach front hotel.

The removal of Sandcastle Suites along with the near by Breakwater Cafe is a bit surprising. Over the past few years a lot of money has been spent on the resort side of the park

Located near WindSeeker, Cedar Point will also be removing the Extreme Sports Stadium. The theater was built in 1980 and housed Oceanea until 1998. From 1999 to 2006 it was the Cedar Point Aquatic Stadium and featured a dive show. In 2008 the building was re-purposed to house the All Wheels Extreme Show.

With these long time park landmarks out of the way, it leaves room for an interesting future for Cedar Point. Removing the stadium is part of an ongoing plan to open up the views of the beach that was blocked as the park expanded in the 1980's and 90's. While we don't know for sure what will replace these attractions, we do know that a boardwalk will be built connecting the main parking lot with Cedar Point Shores Waterpark.
