Had a great time last year!! Can’t wait until they open. They have the sprinklers for the babies and toddlers which I absolutely LOVE for when I didn’t want to hold my toddler in the water after an hour or so. He was able to still enjoy the water and mom got to relax a bit. My older kids were able to go and swim independently as the pool only goes to 4ft. I think. Perfect for the entire family!!!
Amazing staff and cleanest pool! Staff let's kids in anytime(but not adult hours🤫)
Clean pool..nice staff..some kids are ghetto but it’s to be expected
They put the kids out the pool when ever they feel like it
