About

Water park with an adventure lagoon at Prairie Athletic Club, along with a restaurant and bar.

The indoor pool at Dolphin's Cove Swim School is consistently maintained at a comfortable temperature of 90-91 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 32-33 degrees Celsius) year-round.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for the water park are mixed, highlighting both positive features and significant staff issues. Many patrons enjoy the variety of attractions for all ages, including multiple slides, a zero-depth entry pool, a lazy river, a zipline, and water basketball areas. Food options are generally well-regarded and reasonably priced, with ample seating available. Some appreciate its manageable size, finding it less confusing than larger parks, and note that group tickets can be more affordable than competitors. However, a recurring negative theme is the staff, with multiple accounts of rude, unhelpful, and even racist behavior from lifeguards, front desk personnel, and concession staff. This has led to strong disappointment, with some guests vowing not to return or recommend the facility, despite liking the park's setup.

In my experience, trying one thing different at Dolphin’s Cove was great! Unlike any water park in the Dells, I found this place to be non-confusing. Because I liked that way it is not too big, I could find a couple of water slides only myself. Also, I liked the way group tickets are cheaper than most water parks in the Dells, including the Kalahari resort.

Great place with tons of stuff to keep kids entertained! They have a nice zero-depth entry pool with multiple small slides for younger kids. Three larger, longer slides. A short lazy river. A Zipline that drops you into the pool. Multiple areas for water basketball. Lots of chairs in the shade or in the sun to choose from. Food is reasonably priced for a pool, lots of options! Tickets are bit pricey if you aren't a member but I didn't feel like it was overly priced for all that is available!

At safety guard in the indoor pool was racist lady, she turn off the indoor hot water with my husband as he enter the pool. In 15 minutes after my husband waiting he get out the water another male came and get in 💦, she turn on the water. She need to change that ugly old behavior. But the manager Ms beg was wonderful when we came she welcome us.

Was so excited to give this place a try, but was greatly disappointed. Staff (front desk, lifeguards, concessions) is incredibly rude and unhelpful to the point where I will not be going back or recommending to any friends. It's a shame, because it's a neat place in terms of set up, so I really wanted to enjoy it. Our community aquatic center was much more fun with nicer staff, less rules, lifeguards that aren't snotty, and a lot more affordable.
