Lake Winnepesaukah Amusement Park, a beloved family destination in Rossville, Georgia, has a new owner as of 2026. The park, affectionately known as 'Lake Winnie,' has been a cherished spot for generations, offering a unique blend of tradition and entertainment. This transition marks a new chapter for the park, with IB Parks & Entertainment stepping in to ensure its continued success and community impact.
IB Parks & Entertainment has acquired the rights to operate Lake Winnepesaukah under a long-term agreement, starting with the 2026 season. This move aims to enhance the park's offerings while preserving its rich history and cherished experiences. The new owners emphasize their commitment to maintaining the park's traditions, character, and the memories that have made it so special over the years.
One of the key points of reassurance for visitors is that the transition in operations will not disrupt the guest experience. All 2026 Season Passes remain valid, and no changes are expected to the benefits, pricing, or perks. The opening day, operating schedules, and the overall guest experience will continue as usual, ensuring that families can still create lasting memories.
The 2026 season also holds a special significance as it coincides with the 110th anniversary of Lake Winnie's Antique Carousel, a beloved attraction that has been a part of the park's charm for decades. This milestone celebration adds to the excitement of the new year, inviting visitors to join in the festivities and create more unforgettable memories.
Tennyson Dickinson, the director of Lake Winnepesaukah and a great-granddaughter of the founders, Carl and Minette Dixon, expressed her gratitude for the park's enduring legacy. She emphasized the importance of the park's role in creating family memories and assured visitors that the park's essence will remain intact under the new ownership.
As Lake Winnepesaukah embarks on this new journey, it invites visitors to continue sharing their cherished memories and embracing the park's unique charm. With a focus on tradition, community, and guest satisfaction, the park is poised to continue its legacy for years to come.
