My goodness I had fun. So glad we bought season tickets for the entire set of grands. East or West sides have plenty for this crew from 5 to 55 and beyond. Lazy rivers on both sides. Wave pools, “heated” pools, rides, fun. Food plan is easy. If you go daily it’s under 2$ a meal. Say yes and you may find yourself going even if the kids don’t want to or can’t. Labor Day weekend had line for rides, but still fun.

It was fine. We got there before the park opened and there was already a crowd of people. Parking was easy. I was disappointed with long wait times (we only got on 4 attractions) and waited close to an hour for each... The chutes kept getting jammed up with people... My family enjoyed the chutes that connected to the river. It's also nice that you can float around for a bit before continuing and that you can exit along the route if you choose. Tips: Bring yown cooler-this is a must since food and drinks are crazy expensive. Do not wear anything that you like... the tubes leave black marks on your skin and clothes. They will get marked up. Personally, I don't think it's worth the price. If you go, make sure you're getting a discounted ticket.

DO NOT BUY GOLD PASS HERE two different times two different gate employees refused to make a card after one had been purchased, now i have the joy of having to come back and make a scene to get what i paid for. Park is great when rides are working, floods etc damaged a lot and 3/4 of the park was unavailable last time i was there.

We went to Schlitterbahn New on 8/7-8/9 2025. Stayed at The Resort. Which is really is large group of old motel rooms. Our room was very dark and felt like a dungeon. One window only that was covered so you couldn’t see out. Three curtain panels that when closed wouldn’t cover the window. Bathroom sink wouldn’t drain and no water pressure. Shower curtain was too short so the floor got super wet. Filth under one of the two beds. Very thin inner walls between rooms!!!!. I did report all this to the resort front desk. *** BEWARE*** the room photos online are not the actual rooms you get. The website photo attached is what they show online for our room. What we actually got was a room made of 3 outer walls were brick walls painted a dark Grey and the front wall of the room was a solid brick wall with a door and the floors are a medium Brown adding to the darkness. BUY THE YELLOW FAST LANE PASSES ONLINE for $99 because We bought the Yellow Fast Lane Pass at the PARK and it was $139 each for one day. Two totaled (with taxes and fees) $300.29 A bottle of water was $5.00. Positives: the shuttle buses ran often and were air conditioned, the drivers and other employees were very helpful and courteous. We all enjoyed the rides. The Torrent River as our favorite. Both West and East parks were clean. There was a pool close to our room.

Best Waterpark I've ever been to . Lazy river for all ages and plenty of water rides to hop on. Huge pool to relax and best of all our son loved it. We are forever going every Summer till life allows us to.
