What are people saying (AI review summary)? Marilla Park is generally praised for being a clean and affordable facility offering a good variety of attractions for all ages, including a large slide with multiple chutes, a deep pool with a diving board, a shallow pool, a baby pool, a splash pad, a lazy river, and a snack trailer. However, several significant drawbacks are frequently mentioned. Parking is a major concern, with limited spaces often leading to overcrowding and requiring visitors to park far away. The park's overall capacity is often deemed insufficient for the crowds it draws, resulting in long lines for slides, an overcrowded and chaotic lazy river (where children often swim rather than float), and limited actual 'swimming' space. Locker rooms are described as inadequate, particularly for families, due to a lack of changing rooms, hooks in showers, and poor drainage. Other criticisms include a lack of sufficient shade, an abundance of concrete, concession stands running out of food early, and a general sentiment that the park is poorly planned and engineered, with features crammed into a small space.
