Comfortable locations for parents to relax with service. Our 17 and 7 year old kids stayed busy the whole time. Good rides. Friendly staff. No complaints at all.

"Fun water park, the food grill service is worse than it needs to be"

Good park, fun times. The grill though has just ridiculously bad service. Stood at the front of the line for over 10 minutes and they just looked like they were all standing around inside. Took forever to get anyone to help us.

"Fun Waterpark"

We had a great time at this waterpark. They have a lot of slides with different levels of thrill. The yellow slides and rapids were our favorites. The park didn't feel overcrowded. Some times we would wait to get on a slide and others we'd get on right away. Apple parking, lots of food and drink options and lockers for rent. My only complaint is the lazy river and wave pool could have been a little cleaner

We are locals and it was such a good year this year! So glad there is actual rule enforcement and not just a free for all. Employees are really good and enforce the rules and keep our kids safe, soemthing I really appreciate as a mother. We already renewed for next season, can't wait to see what they add. We would love to see some new, fun food items!!
