I did not find Castles and Coasters to suck. It is not meant to be a major amusement park like Six Flags Magic Mountain or Cedar Point, but it is more like an overgrown family fun center. The arcade is great, the go-cart track is fun, the mini-golf is decent, and the rides are a good family variety. I would agree the log ride sucks, but the looping roller coaster (Desert Storm, I believe) is good (not anything I would write home about).
