The food stand and restrooms on the exit path.

Nice image. Apparently the dinosaurs are tame and friendly here. Or maybe they're used for crowd control on very busy days. ;-)

More of the queue area at night

Oooh, really nice!

Very atmospheric!

A few of the actual coaster at night.

This looks great! I can't resist bright nighttime colors.

Last few shots of the coaster at night.

The 2nd pic captures the excitement and confusion created by the twisty-turny track. And of course, the COLORS!

Moving onto the next section. Here is the official write from my buddy that created this park in his head. I think I have said this before, but this project is quite challenging taking what someone else envisioned and trying to bring it to life.

Tree House Island

The island holds six tree houses connected by rope bridges and accessible by stairs which wind around two of the trees. While real trees populate the island, the ones supporting the tree houses are steel structures. One “tree” hides an elevator, for older and wheelchair-bound guests. Each house is designed in a different style. Many of the tree houses have secret doors and passages. Passage between treehouses is provided by suspension bridges. The island is in the middle of Enchanted Lake and is accessible by a bridge.

I find the Tree House Island, the lake, and 'rides' (even if they are static), really appealing!

Beautiful last shot! Tree House Island has a sort of whimsy to it.

It may be difficult to translate your friends vision and turning it into a 'reality', but you certainly nail it for the rest of us...have they mentioned how close your vision comes to theirs?

He really likes it. His vision was that he was going to build/fund this in real life, so the budget would have been way way lower. Other than that I'm following his layout as close as possible, just at a much grander scale.

This sounds like a challenge. I'm sure you'll pull it off brilliantly.

I'm about three-quarters around the lake, so heading into home stretch to complete this project.

Oh, I really like that last screenshot!

I completely understand that "just at a much grander scale" idea...story of my life... LOL!

This island looks like it would be a lot of fun to explore! I too, like that last screenshot. It reminds me a lot of Tom Sawyer Island at Disneyland before the Fantasmic re-do.

Seriously Wowman, I have to applaud you for continuing work on these even after Planet Coaster 2 came out. These projects have grown so much, and you never seem to stop working on them, it's seriously inspiring to see! Love all these screenshots and this park is truly a ParkCrafters classic project at this point!

THX - PC2 is a bit more challenging right now because there are no player made assets to use...which I use a lot in my PC1 projects. That keeps me hanging on. I also really think adding that option in PC would really boost the game interest and positive feelings. I also want to finish projects out.

I have a whole slew of new park plans on paper that I would love to start, but I will finish these two PC1 projects first. Enchanted lake will be done first, but I have a long long way to finish the complete plan for the Renee Feu Park.

Thinking of retirement within the next year...so when/if that happens....MORE PLANET GAME TIME!!!

I'm retired and I could never hope to accomplish a quarter as much as you do still gainfully employed!

Don't kid yourself about retirement, Wowman! I have so much keeping me busy I don't know know how I managed to squeeze in my job! There literally aren't enough hours in the day!

The park is of course stunning! Don't know how you manage!

Isn't it odd that when think about retirement and all the time we'll finally have, it ends up being the opposite. There's just so much we haven't had time to do before, and now, we've got so many things we want to do, there's still not enough time.
