Lake Compounce, Amusement park in Bristol, Connecticut, United States
Lake Compounce extends across 365 acres of land, featuring multiple roller coasters, water attractions, and a dedicated water park named Crocodile Cove.
The establishment dates back to 1846 as a simple picnic area, making it the oldest continuously operating amusement park in the United States.
The name originates from Chief John Compound of the Mattatuck-Tunxis tribe, who signed a deed for the lake property in 1684.
The park operates from April through December with special seasonal events, including Phantom Fall Fest in autumn and Holiday Lights in winter.
Boulder Dash roller coaster earned the Golden Ticket Award for best wooden coaster worldwide for five consecutive years.
