My goal is to have the Web's most comprehensive list of U.S. theme parks. Be sure to include the name of the park, its location, phone number, Web site URL, and a brief description. Thanks!

Myrtle Beach Grand Prix

Myrtle Beach Pavilion Amusement Park
Myrtle Beach

Pavilion Nostalgia Park
Myrtle Beach (At Broadway at the Beach)
877-699-9200
A handful of the rides, including the historic carousel and band organ, that used to be at the closed Myrtle Beach Pavilion are at this mini ode to the seaside park.

Pedroland (South of the Border)
Dillon
(800) 845-6011
Motorists traveling along I-95 can't miss Pedroland. The billboards start building anticipation hundreds of miles in advance of the landmark. More a truck stop/roadside attraction that grew to enormous proportions than an amusement park, Pedroland includes a few rides, like a Ferris wheel and bumper cars, among the tacky gift shops, restaurants, and other diversions.
