Had our first visit and was impressed by it! It is a family friend center that is spacious, and…read morehas four different areas for kids and adults of all ages. They also had several rooms where you can host birthday parties and an upstairs floor with additional seating to eat and hangout. It is nice because the whole place is indoors so you can always enjoy the place in all weather conditions, which is great if you're looking for entertainment as a family. All the staff were really nice, and helpful, including the lifeguards. You can bring in your own coolers of food, drinks, etc. just no glassware, which helps on costs too. I'd definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice, clean indoor swimming!

So this was my first time at Epic, and I came on a 21 and up night. I appreciate that they have a…read morehuge parking lot, which made it easy to find parking and make it inside. So first of all, I love that there were no kids running around and it was a grown and sexy vibe, they had a DJ and they had different areas that were selling drinks and food I believe. So when I have seen commercials, I will admit that I thought that the lazy river was bigger and I thought there were more rides. The night I went, not all the rides were opened, I don't know if that's because it was a grown party or if they didn't have enough lifeguards. Regardless though, I had a great time, I hang out with my friends for about 2 hours. There was one point, where there was a big group between the wave runner and the lazy river that were having a dance party and doing line dances. I was able to get discounted tickets because we bought them early, so if I have the opportunity to do it again, I definitely would.

I don't think regular pricing reflects the experience, so we wait for deals and go in the off season, spring break in the summer is crazy packed unless you go right at open in a weekday, and even then lines get long before noon. I would never go on a weekend. It is also incredibly humid so bring tons of water, more than you would think. The rises are great, the staff is well trained and super sweet, and the side activities or entertainment they get occasionally is always a great addition. The crowding really does take away from the experience though.

Loved it!! Price was fair and it wasn't packed. Took our own snacks, set up chairs under the trees…read more Will definitely come back!

I took our growing kiddos to NRH20 today while Bill worked. I had to take a moment and share this…read morebecause they made an unfortunate situation so much better. Best dang water park with the most incredible management and lifeguard team. Truly something to be valued in this day and age. As we were in the lazy river, right as we came around the corner, a lifeguard jumped in and pulled out what appeared to be a dead 2 year old baby. It turned out to be a dummy and it was just a drill, but I had no idea and it sent me into the depths of my PTSD. The way that dummy flopped around in her arms was painfully and terrifyingly familiar. I think I let out a scream or said NOOOOOOOOOOOO... A very nice gentleman that had witnessed the same thing earlier in the day yelled, "It's just a dummy. It was a test." To say I was traumatized is an understatement, but I have to tell you how sincerely impressed I was with their genuine care and concern. I immediately went up to the coordinator shaking and said that my son had drowned and we nearly lost him and that seeing that was hard. I didn't complain because I appreciate they are training for real life situations. I just had to say... something. The young lady was so kind and concerned. (She shared with me there was a sign I must have missed at the front that said they were performing drills.) A little bit later, the manager and his team found me in the park, so they could apologize. Just wow! He offered the most sincere words and begged if he could do anything to make me feel better. Of course I kindly declined but was so incredibly grateful for his and her kindness. I was overwhelmed by their authentic concern for me. Truly heart warming. I was such a mess, I didn't even get their names, so THANK YOU, kind strangers. We will be back every chance we can.

We received Summer Reading tickets from our library, so we decided we might as well try out NRH2O!…read moreThe check-in process is super easy and there are signs directing you where to go. They check your bags/cooler and scan your tickets, then let you go about your day. My friend and I split the cost of a shaded Splash Picnic spot just to make sure our older kiddos had a landing base to re-up on snacks and drinks. Our name was printed on the reserved spot making it officially ours! It is SUPER cool they allowed our own cooler with ice packs, although it would've been a tiny bit more amazing to sip on a girlie marg. I sent my friend on a scavenger hunt to see if they sell any type of alcohol of any kind and turned up empty, just as a heads up to others who may wonder too. While I mostly stayed in the toddler swimming hole and kiddie water slides, and shuffled over to try out the wave pool, my oldest told me about the Lazy River on the other side. She also told me about her "losing her soul" on the dropout slide ha! She had fun, but it took her breath away for sure. Bathrooms are air conditioned. Parking was ample, shade was more plentiful than Hawaiian Falls, and you can reserve seats online if you don't want to risk not having a spot. Overall, a fun family-friendly space to have a good time outdoors!

Love, love, love this little park. It is not a high end place with tons of high thrill water…read moreslides, but it has two decent sized slides, and a tall slide where you go down head first with a sled type of mat under your chest. There is a really nice lazy river, a normal sized pool, and two great areas for kids with all sorts of ways to cool off. The food is also not bad at all for a water park. EXTREMELY affordable overall, friendly staff, and there's something for everyone.

The facility itself is very nice and clean as well as the bathrooms are ver clean and managed very well. The staff is very nice and knowledgeable about what is going on at the park at all times. There are lifeguards at every slide making sure it is safe for everyone. They have good prices from food to lockers. I would definitely recommend this water park and cant wait to go back!

My kids have a great time when we come we even got a pass book for nonresident…read more The admission isn't terrible, regardless. It's def a public space and it's young adults/teenagers working. The cleanliness can obviously be a bit more kept up with, but I do see the guards taking out the trash. The concession stand is quick and has some pretty tasty options. We've gotten the pizza, prices are on the steeper side. Def worth it to grab a whole pizza for $20 versus the price they charge for one slice. My kids love the diving boards, they have two (although one has been out of commission this week - hopefully they fix it quickly!) It's on the smaller size but manageable to take your kids and find a spot to sit and you can keep watch of the kids while they run around. Bathrooms need major attention, but it would be nice if people could keep up with their own trash a little better too.

They have TWO splash pad areas for smaller kids & many other areas for the bigger kids. Only downfall during our experience was they unexpectedly closed one of the splash areas for the little kids right as we got there, so we only got to play in one of the toddler splash areas, but my kids still had an amazing time! Cheap to get in and you can stay all day as they have concession stands with food/drinks for purchase. Will be spending the remainder of summer here!

Sigh . . . The City of Dallas is talking about closing down community pools are prides themselves…read moreabout this flagship water park. However the cost keeps going up, and the amenities keep going down. Now they charge $20 no matter the size of the cooler. You can't bring in your own float devices but at the same time, there's never enough tubes for the lazy river. This last visit, I want to say there were 10 and the life guard mentioned people taking them out the water to their tables & chairs. There were also lots of tubes deflated. The structure needs to be updated and walls are crumbling and falling apart. Seriously, this place needs a make over especially if we are closing the affordable community pools and pushing folks to these places.

Admittedly, the ticket buying process is a bit cumbersome on site. And parking is ridiculously inadequate. BUT, once you actually get inside, it's so much fun. I'm always able to snag a seat in an unreserved area to chill in the shade. And they also have lockers for your stuff for a small free. Some of the grown-ups swim attire on a recent visit was a little....questionable but nothing you wouldn't see at the beach on vacation. The best part? Dallas residents get discounted entry (as we should!). Highly recommend for keeping the kids busy over the summer (come early!)

My favorite slide was the big yellow Tsunami and of course, the Lazy River. The loungers are so relaxing and I got quite a tan :D We purchased our tickets on Groupon which were easy to redeem. Additionally, my family brought a small soft cooler with food and drinks, which they do check for glass so be prepared to open every bag up to show them! My group reserved the cabanas in the back, and our servers were amazing! Of course we had to take the frozen strawberry margaritas for a spin. The food all smelled great too. Parking was plentifully, just don't park on the grass! Apparently that is a problem, so there was a police out there enforcing it. A fun and relaxing day was had by all family members!
