We stayed two nights, Sun through Tues. The location looked great, layout, design etc. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Alot of activities for the kids to do outside of the main attraction. My two main issues were how overcrowded it was within the water park area, especially in the lazy river and wave pool. If you don't arrive early, good luck finding a small table with chairs to place your kids drinks or snacks. You'll have to resort to paying $20 for a locker for the day. This brings me to the other item; food was a bit pricey and you get charges you didn't expect when reserving...ex: additional $20 a night to use their parking lot.. $20 overnight stay fees.. these add up quickly. At the end of the day, you begin to question if maybe for a little more money you could book a weekend trip elsewhere that may have been better.

We had a wonderful time here with our family. A few minor improvements could enhance the room; specifically, there was some chipped paint on the wall and the patio slider, and there was no soap at the bathroom sink. In our suite, the air conditioning only worked in one room and the patio room; the other room lacked air conditioning entirely. These are a few areas for attention, but otherwise, we had a fantastic family weekend.

Very clean and well kept! Staff VERY friendly and available to you for whatever! Fun activities ! Well managed lines that were never very long! Yes it’s a little pricy but you can reconcile it with how well the place is run!

Great indoor park for a family that has teens and toddlers. I have been coming here for the last five years two to three times out of the year. My kids love it I love it. the crew is amazing they care about safety and cleanliness and being polite.

Full day and half day passes available. Life guards on duty. Lazy river is relaxing. A few water slides with a small line. A kiddy pool for little ones.
