I believe the entire park is 1.7 miles, I did not walk the whole thing. It was decorated for the holidays. Has a large pavilion with benches. There are dog waste bags & trashcans, but they are few & far between. A few benches & chair swings here & there. I did not see a restroom, but there was a large handicapped accessible port-a-potty in front of the public works building, which is across the street from the small parking lot. I am unsure if skateboarding is prohibited or not, I saw no signs stating that, but I could be wrong. This park is pet friendly, dogs allowed, I saw other people walking their leashed dogs.

Picnic Shelter has two long wooden benches, about 4-5 wooden picnic tables, and a few roll off trashcans. Shelter appears to be lighted with electrical access and plug in adjacent to it. No parking lot, sign said no street parking, I parked on the grass. Pet friendly, dogs are allowed on leashes only. Park has trees, looks like a nice, shady place in the summer time, but I was here in December, most of the trees lost their leaves. No public restrooms or sports here, but still a nice place. Not far off of Interstate 10, a block away from AL-59. Quiet.

The passes seamed pretty steep. You have to pay if you want to see your boy play. Coolers 0 stars - My biggest complaint is the complex would only let each team bring in two coolers. No other coolers were not allowed in. So, you can only buy drinks and food from the concession stand. We are in the Deep South and it is crucial for spectators to hydrate in July outside in the sun all day. A parent in our team got heat exhaustion. He had to miss a day of his boy playing to stay in bed to recuperate. That is just greedy on their part. They are wanting to make money over people being healthy. I will have to give different star ratings for different parts of the facility. Restrooms 5 stars - There is an attendant that cleans and refills every hour. An added bonus is they are air conditioned. Fields 3 stars - the fields are in good condition, there's some holes in the fences near the dugout on field 3 that the ball kept getting out of the field. Also, they used portable mounds. Parking lot 1 star - Our team brought a trailer with us for all the boy's equipment. The Orange Beach facility has a trailer parked over near the bathrooms at the soccer field. So, our team parked their trailer their as well. We were asked to move ours, but they are allowed to park theirs there? Makes no sense!

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 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.

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.

I met so many nice people, who when we tell them we recently move here, they are so welcoming, from celebrities to just your neighbor.

The town is filled with pastel colored houses, dreamy tree lined streets with flowers on every corner, resident geese and pelicans that the locals have named and the most friendly people I've ever encountered.

Fairhope is only about five hours from Lafayette and if you're in New Orleans it's even closer...about two hours, thirty minutes. Mobile is right across the bay, so you can go to the "big city" fairly quickly but stay in this idyllic little town. There's so much to do with the museums, shopping, and dining. Until next time Fairhope. See you in my dreams.
