Cool Country is home to Eagles: Life in the Fast Lane. It's a mine train roller coaster boasting an on-board high-fidelity digital audio system, with a special version of the Eagles "Life in the Fast Lane."
It's more tame than Led Zeppelin - The Ride, but still offers a fun ride that's packed with some mid-level g-forces via twists and turns and two lift hills. Eagles will be a great ride for the whole family.In Cool Country, guests will also enjoy the giant swing ride and the Ice House Theater. Binkowski owned the theater before the park was built. In front of the theater is another discovery. Rock Cow Billy, a bronze statue of a rockabilly cow interacts with greets guests, flirts with ladies, and may even spray you with its udders. Inside you'll find a very entertaining ice show called Country on the Rocks. The show features a cast of talented skaters and Country/Rock hits like "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)".Bohemian Rhapsody Fireworks & Laser Show
Guests can finish their day at the park with the Bohemian Rhapsody fireworks and laser show. Right over the pond, fireworks are synchronized in time with the classic Queen hit. Even the 70-foot Gibson guitar gets in on the act. For a brand new park, Hard Rock Park has excellent theming and a lot to offer.
You have to tip your hat to the ingenuity of the creators in creating something memorable and different when they could have created another paint by numbers theme park with the same stale ideas. Hard Rock Park should be on anyone's short list of new attractions to visit this summer.

I was very skeptical about HRP until I went for the first time in July. It was very cool!! The best part is they have great rides w/ very little wait time. It is so worth the money and you can ride every ride in the park and not have to wait half the day to do so.

my family just got back from hrp... 5 aug 08... the best advise i can give is ... DO NOT GO!!!... its to expensive for what few rides they have ( in which those arent even very good).. within an hour my family was bored.. hot.. and very mad.. hardrock has alot of balls to charge what they do for crap!!!.... save your money and avoid this park!!!!!!! its a joke and a rip off!!!!

Folks, you can't expect a brand new Park starting out to have as much as larger established parks but it does have more to do then just rides alone such as shows&bands,Give this Park time to add more rides and expand,it will be a hit in years to come. Cedar Point did'nt start out with what it has today.
