I found this park on New Element, and it is AMAZING. The architecture and theming is some of the best ever IMO. All it needs to be one of the best parks ever is another good coaster. Everything else is outstanding, just missing that one big coaster.

Nice Park. Needs more rides.

Coasters-8.8/10-great layouts, but you needed more. If you had one or two more, it would have been a 9 easily.
Theming-9.5/10-Really good. The tree combonation looked kinda weird though.

Overall-9.15-really good

wow, you came back to RCT, and ur still a "guru" lol. well this park was amazing, still citrus beach edges it out a bit IMO, but you havent released a park in awhile.

coasters: hmm, maybe one more or two would be nice, but i really liked the inverted, the others, well nothing too impressive theming was nice though. 8.5/10

architecture: this is where the park flies. amazing architecture, almost makes up for that missing coaster. 9.5/10

the feel: this has a bright feel to it, a good one like in most of your parks: 9/10

theming: awesome just awesome : 9/10

amazing park elrocko, keep it up looking foward to your next one.
and the final grade: 9.1/10 (not an average of all the scores just a final grade i give it in my mind).

Yeah, I agree with tediz, it's missing a huge coaster. I mean, the Beemer is outstanding, but it doesn't stand out. You need a hyper or something with a launch. Oh, and that Twister thing in the back of the park with the mini steel track is AWESOME! How did you do that? That's the coolest thing i've ever seen. Anywho, here's my rating: 8.9/10. I like it. Keep up the good work.

Yeah, I know. I could of had one more coaster, but I don't like building a lot of coasters. Anyways, I glad you all liked it.

Thumbs up Lake Aspen Review

Coasters.
The coasters of this park were different from other parks I've seen. Usually, there's one or two main coasters, and then several smaller ones. This park had a few medium size coasters. It was a different approach, but it looked good. The coasters here were compact, but they didn't look crowded. They also had good theming and stations.
Overall coaster rating: 8.1

Scenery.
For the most part, the scenery here was pretty good. The tree selection looked good, and the gardens were well done, as were the buildings. I also liked the selection of bushes and flowers along the lake's edge. In addition, the rocky crags around The Avenger and Exploda was nice.
Overall scenery rating: 8.5

Other rides.
This park had a nice selection of other rides, and they were very nicely incorporated into the entire scheme of the park. They also had interesting names. However, Whitewater Rapids looked a little ugly.
Overall other rides rating: 7.6

Missellaneous comments.
This park looked more like a traditional park then a modern day megapark, because of the buildings and the choices of scenery. Very nicely done.

Overall park rating: 8.0

It's been a while, Elrocko. Very nice park to make up for it. There was great theming and coasters - very realistic!
