This is kind of a fun place to go but tends to overly crowded and eating choices are limited. The staff tends to be young teenagers that have poor work ethics (rude, unattentive, etc.) We haven't been in a while because of the above comments. More

Despite rumors of gang activity, we worked up the courage to visit. We did not see any hint of violence or gang activity. However, the wave pool was broken for most of the day. Also, it was excessively crowded which I didn't like. More

They sale a large amount of season passes on St. Patrick's Day and then brag in the paper about how many visitors they have. Meanwhile, guests are packed in so thick that you can't enjoy yourself along with all the pre-teens and teens whose parents use the waterpark as a summer long babysitter. Be prepared for rude teen attendants and... More

Always a good time. Love the beach area. Would be nice if there were a tighter security or crowd/manners control. Are a bit too many parents turning kids loose without respect for others. More

Great for toddlers in the smaller pools - splash pool can get overcrowded and feel dangerous, but it's great for cooling off! There's not much in the way of waterslides, but for local entertainment, it's fun More

Even for an older park, its still pleasant. Crowded on a summer day, and long lines for the slides, but a good value. More

I took my toddler here last summer (when she was 2) for the toddler part of the park.....she totally loved it. She really loved the swings in the water. I know we'll definitely going back for many years to come. They don't allow food in the park and I wish that would change as toddlers are hungry at odd times.....but... More
