About
Clean pool with a slide, a kids' zone and a lazy river.
Explicit pool temperatures for the O'Neil Aquatics Center are not typically published. As a seasonal outdoor facility, the water temperature is generally maintained at a comfortable level for recreational swimming, primarily influenced by solar heating and ambient air temperatures during its operating season.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The waterpark generally offers a positive experience, described as a great, beautiful, and safe place for a day out, featuring a relaxing lazy river and a nice kids' area that keeps little ones happy. Reviewers praise its cleanliness, friendly staff, and overall good management. However, common criticisms include the lazy river being perceived as "really small" by some and a significant lack of available sitting tubes for it, which causes frustration among adults. Other points of feedback include the quick unavailability of lounge chairs and a relatively limited number of attractions (one slide, a diving area), leading some to suggest other local alternatives offer better value.

Is a great way to spend the day. Lazy river is very relaxing. Kids area is really nice and keeps the little ones happy. Go early if you want to get a lounge chair as those go quickly. We will definitely be going back

I would give this 5 stars if they had more of the half tubes that you sit in for the lazy river. After going there often there are always plenty of round tubes but most of the adults watch like Hawks to get the sitting ones. So why don't they invest in getting like atleast 10 of the sitting tubes ? Also if you have to use the bathroom real quick you have to put your tube back up and the sitting ones are snatched up quick. You should be able to save your tube by placing it on your chair. Like I said most people are waiting to snatch the sitting ones up, so it makes me wonder how many people pee in the pool because they don't want to lose their tube ? .

It was ok. There's a lazy river, which is cool, but it's REALLY small. One slide, a diving area, and a kids/family splash area. That's it. For the money, you're way better off going to Fairview or Anderson in Normal.

Beautiful and safe waterpark. Perfect place to go splash in the water without any fears of sharks or disgusting Asian carp! 🤣
