The kids had a great time, the slides & attractions kept them entertained for hours. The only downside is the food options, which could definitely be improved to include vegan friendly options.

Waterpark was amazing, but ticket issue wasted 2 hours. Lesson learned: always book direct, not 3rd party.

For such an expensive water park ($99/person, $5 for a small water bottle), I would expect the bathrooms to have better upkeep. The stalls (almost ALL OF THEM including the unisex one and the ones in the changing rooms) had no toilet paper and trash overflowing on the floor. The tampon dispensers were either broken or empty (took my 50 cent, lol but no product). We were there from noon until 6 p.m on a Saturday

Perfect indoor water park for the entire family. From the kids to the adults had fun. Will be going back for sure. The only thing is the bathrooms could be cleaner.

In my opinion I recommend wearing shoes for water and if you have the opportunity to arrive early better for you to enjoy the whole place but it is amazing my son, wife and I loved it

14 minutes ago New Went with my 21 year old daughter as a post college graduation/pre internship/secondary job packed summer celebration. The whole experience exceeded our expectation. It wasn’t super crowded, and we didn’t wait but 3 minutes for our favorite ride (Dreamsrunner, I think…it’s the water coaster). All the attendants were engaging, friendly and informative. The slides are fast and furious and oh so much fun. There is a lot of variety from tube slides, body slides, mat slides, free falls….so much, super impressive design overall. Decor was fun and costume character visit assigned times. Food choices are a little light, but good came fast and was sufficient. Would have been nice to be permitted to bring food, but , whatever. We’ve already made a plan to return after the summer obligations to celebrate again. We had a blast. Water was warm, place was clean overall. Can’t fault the staff for floating eyelashes or fake fingernails floating around…..perhaps don’t wear those to a waterpark.
