You want to get there about 20-30 minutes before opening as Knott's usually opens the gates before the actual opening time. If you are staying at the Knott's hotel or are a season pass holder, you can get in the park at 9:30am instead of 10am. I would go straight to Ghostrider as it typically gets the longest line out of all the rides. After Ghostrider, I would head to the back right corner and hit up Hang Time, Xcelerator, and Supreme Scream. They should be walk-ons for the first hour or so of the park being open. From there you can just enjoy the park at your leisure. The log ride and Silver Bullet have great capacity, so don't be dismayed if they have long lines--those lines move quickly. Don't miss out on the Mine ride (classic dark ride) or Montezooma's Revenge (the last Schwarzkopf shuttle loop still operating in the US).My new favorite place to eat in the park is the Boardwalk BBQ. It has a nice selection of BBQ items (ribs, wings, pulled pork, tri-tip, etc) and the portions are huge. For sides, I would recommend the mac & cheese and the baked beans. And be sure to get a funnel cake with boysenberry topping.
