Funtown Splashtown USA
Funtown Splashtown USA (commonly referred to as just "Funtown") is a
family-owned amusement park. The park features Maine's only wooden roller
coaster, Excalibur, as well as New England's longest and tallest log flume,
Thunder Falls.
Funtown also has a 220-foot-tall (67 m) Drop Tower called Dragon's Descent. One
of the park's most popular rides is the Astrosphere, which is an indoor
Scrambler which features a state-of-the-art laser and light show while playing
ELO's Fire on High.
The Splashtown area features Pirate's Paradise, a large interactive waterpark
playground which dumps hundreds of gallons of water onto its guests every few
minutes. For the 2007 season, an expansion was built that doubled the size of
the waterpark and added two new thrill slides, Tornado and Mammoth.
An additional expansion in 2012 added another 6 thrill slides to Splashtown.
