From The Vault: Cedar Fair's 2005 Unit Holder Offer Letter

A great many moons ago I was a Cedar Fair unit holder, starting from before I could even legally hold the units on my own.  I haven't been in some time (all those dividends and growth helped us get a house!), but back in the day the company would send out a special offer for unit holders each year.

In 2005, the focus was on Cedar Fair's resorts and accommodations.  They had some pretty good offers, sadly I don't think I ever took advantage of them.  Here we see the focus on Cedar Point's offerings, which included Hotel Breakers' 100th anniversary (pre-renovations though) and also take note of Sandcastle Suites - rest in piece.

Cedar Point has long had many different hotels either on property or adjacent to it, and that list has continued to grow in the 15 years since this was sent out.  Lighthouse Point has been expanded even more, and Castaway Bay is undergoing a renovation currently.  The coupons generally offered two nights for the price of one, of course with restrictions on dates.

Cedar Point properties were not the only ones being advertised here though, as Cedar Fair has resorts at many of its parks.  The Knott's Berry Farm Resort Hotel came with the purchase of the park in 1997, and offers a selection of amenities along with Snoopy themed rooms.  Next up is the Geauga Lake Hotel, which is now just a part of history along with Geauga Lake.

Cedar Fair made a big push on adding camper villages at many of its parks and one of the first to go up outside of Cedar Point was the World of Fun Village.  It was new when this was sent out, so a drawing of the expansion is included along with a really oddly drawn Mamba roller coaster.  The Village is still operating today, though the company's plan to open more camper areas from the ground up never really moved forward much after this development (several did come along with the Paramount Park purchase, however).
