    We had a great time here recently. We bought tickets at the gate. Unfortunately, there's not an…read moreoption for admission for people that aren't riding rides. So, two people in our party had to pay full price for no rides. There was a long wait at the front to get into the park, because only one employee was working. Not really sure what they were doing because they gave us a wrist band for the water park even though we only paid for the theme park. We were as confused as they were. We went during Thanksgiving week so the weather was cooler, but there wasn't much of a wait for any rides. Our daughter wasn't tall enough to ride everything (only 38"), but we still managed to have a good time. They have a lot of rides for the smaller kids. My wife and I enjoyed the roller coaster the best. We took advantage of the low wait times and rode the roller coaster several times. Definitely worth checking out.

    I debated whether to post this, but I feel it's important for other families to be aware before…read morespending money and traveling for this experience. I traveled from Birmingham and spent a significant amount of money to bring my children to Tropic Falls for the indoor waterpark. Unfortunately, my experience ended up being extremely disappointing and embarrassing. After climbing several flights of stairs to ride a float attraction with my son, I was asked to step on a scale in front of multiple guests waiting in line. I was then told publicly that I exceeded the weight limit and could not ride any float attractions. Another guest even asked if I could ride solo instead, and again, in front of everyone, I was told I exceeded the limit. I completely understand and respect ride safety policies and weight restrictions. My concern is not that safety rules exist. My concern is the lack of clear disclosure beforehand and how the situation was handled publicly. The website states: "All Riders: Maximum Weight of Rider = 250 lbs. Double Riders: Maximum Combined Weight of Riders = 400 lbs." Based on that wording, I believed my son and I qualified for a double float ride as long as we were under the combined limit. If the policy is that no rider over 250 lbs can ride any float attraction regardless of combined weight, I feel that should be made much clearer before ticket purchase. What hurt the most was being weighed and having my weight discussed in front of strangers and my child. My son no longer wanted to ride afterward, and I walked away feeling embarrassed and unable to participate in the attractions I came to enjoy with my son. I have reached out to management privately because I wanted to give them the opportunity to address my concerns first. However, I also feel it's fair to make others aware so they can make informed decisions before visiting. I truly hope policies are communicated more clearly and situations like this are handled with more privacy and sensitivity in the future.

Of course, there are food options available, but be mindful of eating and throwing things away in a timely manner because of the birds. Outside of that, it was a great experience.

    We were excited to visit Waterville while vacationing in Orange Beach with our family. The staff at…read morecheck-in were friendly, and the park looked like it had potential for a great day. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. We paid over $250 to spend just a few hours at the park before storms rolled in around 2:30 p.m. By about 4:00, the skies had cleared--but the park never reopened. With two full hours left in the published schedule, and clear weather outside, the day was over. I reached out to management, which is when the situation really took a turn for the worst. Their proposal - a rain check for a future visit. Problem is--we came all the way from Colorado. A "come back next time" credit just isn't helpful when you've spent that kind of money and have no plans to return. We've visited waterparks in multiple states--Arizona, Texas, Colorado--and have never experienced this kind of early closure after a storm passed. Most parks resume operations when it's safe. Not here. Beyond that: You're not allowed to bring in your own water, which is a challenge on hot Alabama days. Several lifeguards at the wave pool seemed more focused on chatting and flirting than on guest safety. The park itself feels a bit rundown and in need of investment. This may once have been the place to go in Orange Beach. But based on our experience, I'd suggest exploring other options for your family day. There are better values--and more responsive customer service--elsewhere. Incidentally, I made numerous attempts to resolve this issue with management, to no avail. They were unwilling to help and (eventually) completely unresponsive.

My son is 7 and my daughter is 6 and like most happy kids at a family amusement park, they were skipping, jumping, and running because they were excited. As we were walking toward the arcade, an older employee near the boat area, wearing a green shirt, blew a whistle and yelled across the park at my children to stop running. There was no crowd around them, they weren't running into anyone, and they weren't creating a safety issue. They were simply being excited children at an outdoor family entertainment venue. I understand the importance of safety, but there is a respectful way to speak to children. Yelling at young kids from across the park and blowing a whistle at them was unnecessary and left a bad impression on our visit. Family attractions should be places where children can enjoy themselves, and employees should know how to address kids in a friendly and appropriate manner. My kids still enjoyed their day, but this interaction was disappointing and could have been handled much better. We have NEVER had this issue at the track in all the years we visit. Someone definitely needs to let him know that it no acceptable behavior

    I look forward to their openings every summer!! I always purchase a seasons pass. Since it was…read morebought out by new owners - the seasons pass price went from $129.00 down to $59.00. When I read about the price drop, all I could think of was that since they've chopped the price down, it will seriously be packed the entire time they are open. I'm so glad that I purchased this anyway because it being overcrowded was completely unfounded. When I arrive, I get a float & enter the lazy river (don't think that's the correct name!) and I just float away - for hours. I have a lower back issue so to be in the water on a float - it takes out all the pressure on my lower back! They play music, they have a snack bar, and the staff is wonderful! You are not allowed to bring in snacks/drinks so just know that upfront. I also love the area where it's really shallow & little children are mostly there. Because they have this huge "pail" that continually fills up w/water. Then they tip the pail to where all the water dumps into the shallow pool. I think a bell rings or something so you have a few seconds to grab your child if you are worried they might get scared/knocked over. I can vouch for what force the pail tips over as far as the water coming out of it. I knew they were about to tip the pail over & it's so much fun plus you really get cooled off. What I did not know - however - was to grab my top because the pail of water comes down really quickly and my top came down with it. After I regrouped, I got out of the water to get my sunscreen when a lifeguard approached me. I was pretty sure he was going to ask me to leave, and that this is a "family" type atmosphere and to please stop terrorizing the children. But he ended up asking me where I had purchased my bracelet. Crisis averted! I love this place so much!!!

Let's start with all the outdated hazardous equipment. I wouldn't let my worst enemy on some of those rides. Then the mini golf area? How hard is it to pick up trash and blow the leaves off the course. All the "shortcut" pipes need a good cleaning. Lost 3 balls on hole 3. The gocarts? Lucky if they have 7 working at any given time. Lazertag. Same. Only 7 players could go at a time. Don't get me started on the concessions. The day after the 4th, a worker said, "sorry, we didn't expect this rush." It was midday on a Saturday. We didn't try the water park and based on how bad everything else is, won't ever give it a go. Tear this place down.
