Disclaimer up front. This place is dated and could use a facelift and you must bring your own…read morechairs. That said... The pool is huge and the water slides very fun and efficient (wait times are short). I took my granddaughter for a weekend swim and we both had a great time. The water slides are the bomb, especially for a local pool that is not part of a theme park. The pool area is large and even on a weekend we had plenty of room to swim and horse around. They allow beach balls and small pool toys. The pool offers fun for all age kids - the baby pool has mushrooms and slides and there is even a mid size slide for kids too old for the baby pool but not ready for the big slides. All of the lifeguards we encountered were smiling and friendly. The snack bar has a wide variety of ice cream, drinks, and unhealthy fried foods (fries, Snickers, Twinkies) and service was fast and efficient. The inside eating area has lots of tables but is very dark. Now for the things that need improvement: Bathrooms are dingy and old, but not unclean. The party deck wood is old and I would worry about splinters. They have nice areas with tables and umbrellas to eat, but NO poolside chairs. Come on! For $20 weekend admission they should have chairs lining the pool area. The parking lot needs paving and spot markers, and the outside needs better signage to find the entrance. Even with all these negatives, I have to give 4 stars because my granddaughter had a wonderful time (she can't wait to go back) and the other patrons seemed to be having fun as well.

My husband was charged 4 admission tickets when he told Jennifer that there are 2 adults, 1…read moretoddler, and an infant. As soon as he noticed that she charged for our infant, Jennifer turned around and didn't acknowledge him after the transaction was made. As soon as our infant woke up, we all went in and requested a refund for charging our infant. She was not friendly at all and said, " I DID ASK FOR HEIGHT". She did give us a refund after we showed her that we actually did have an infant not 2 toddlers. The staff do not measure the kids. There is no sign or anything of 32 inches. The staff "eye balls" the height of children. Only giving two stars because the kids had fun. Besides that we will not be coming back. $20 is not worth going to a "family establishment " that isn't so friendly.

Life jackets are located throughout the park. There are several family water slides: Big Daddy Falls, Aquazoid Amped, and Malibu Pipeline were all rides we as a family with 36" and 48" tall children could experience together. My oldest and I liked the cutback water coaster a lot! Rock 'n Roll island is home to the lazy river, a large standard pool and an obstacle course. There is also a kiddie slide in this area along with 3 body slides for 48"+. My youngest enjoyed the cow-a-bunga play area and the couple of slides there. High tide harbor was also a hit: a multi level play structure with multiple kiddie slides. Hubba hubba highway was also a crowd-pleaser, think non-lazy river. We spent a lot of time in the wave pool too. No tubes but grab a life jacket and let the waves take over. We also had lunch and my youngest ate the whole cheeseburger she ordered and gave it two thumbs up. The dirt cups were also a favorite that the kids enjoyed. Definitely a fun waterpark, recommend a weekday visit if possible.

Today, me and my partner were there and we were leaving because we had ridden everything and on our…read moreway out we needed WiFi to call our Uber, well, one of the security guards (the lady with the black hair at the metal detector) yelled at us because she thought we were going back into the park (we weren't) we were simply trying to get better signal connection. Then she told us "not to go past the sign" that was in between the empty kettle corn bar and the exit, so we didn't. We inched closer to the sign to get better connection but we couldn't get any. (Mind you we DID NOT cross the sign line) then the male security guard with a GREEN HEADBAND, yells at us, "You have been warned, if you go past the sign you will be trespassing and you will be arrested" when we had two seconds earlier stated the fact that we had just been trying to get WiFi. It's really disappointing to see this as a customer and someone who has worked at bush gardens before. After this btw, I was going to come back into the park as the lady had suggested to get the WiFi and when I did, they had purposely moved the metal detector line and I heard the lady say to the guy, "well if they don't wanna come through now, they can just cry about it" as well as I had to stand near the now obsolete metal detector (after they moved it) and I luckily got the WiFi signal. They purposely moved the no bag line to the bag line just because they didn't want me to go through and when I needed the connection and was trying to get the uber to get both of us home, they got on the radio and called the park sheriff as if I was doing something shady. (I'm black btw) I hope whatever is left of the park time you guys have left is better than this one we both experienced today. Pics of them down below

Second time here because I wanted to give it another try. I'm disappointed yet again. The bed is so…read moreuncomfortable. The mattress is old and creaky. The room, although nice, complete with a fireplace (it's just for show-doesn't get warm) is SO INCREDIBLY DAMP!!. It's disgusting and it stinks like a musty old basement . called to the front desk and they had maintenance bring a commercial dehumidifier (see picture). It's been running for over 24 hours now and thank goodness the room has dried out. The smell still lingers but not as strong. The maintenance guy even said "oh my gosh this is terrible. I feel it and smell it, I'm so sorry!" I rented a cabana overnight and paid at the front desk in the morning. Went downstairs to Check In and was told "I'm sorry all the cabanas are full. Someone made a mistake and didn't reserve yours" I was pissed and my daughter was disappointed. We had a cabana yesterday and wanted another one today. The manager offered an apology and a "free game of bowling or whatever you want." I was also told "I will look into your reservation and see what kind of discount I can give you." Of course I got refunded for the cabana, but no reservation discount. What I wanted was the cabana I reserved and paid for. What I got was a round table, a few chairs, towels and a free locker rental. The gesture was nice but definitely not sufficient. Our table was placed in front of two empty cabanas, although they had someone's name on them by, 4:45 PM no one had showed up for either one. Somehow I doubt they came at 5 PM when the park closes at 8 PM. One of those could've been mine! The internet...it's horrible. Been here 3 days and have been able to access internet probably 2 or 3 times. I have work emails to answer and can't. See pic of the message I keep getting. I tried airplane mode on and off, tried rebooting my iPhone, tried "forgetting the network"...tried everything the front desk staff said to try. $1200 for 3 nights and I can't even access my work email on a regular basis. I was offered a $50 refund on my stay because of this. We'll see if that even shows up. The only way I'm even able to write this review at 1:45am as I lay here in bed, is because it miraculously connected for the moment I don't even care about the $50, I just need the Internet like I get at every hotel that I visit. I swear, it's just been one thing after another here. I cannot wait to get back home. As much as I want to like this GWL location I just don't. I'm really looking forward to visiting Kalahari in November when it opens. P.S. on another note, staff is very friendly and pleasant and the lifeguards do a great job constantly checking the pool for safety.

They have an ample chairs (you know, for laying out kind) shaded areas, tables and chairs, and picnic tables, separate picnic area in the back as well as a beautiful lawn area. This is not a water park but for a pool, it's got more than the usual amenities. For two bucks I really can't complain at all! It's a bargain! They have a vendor who cooks hot dogs and burgers on the side and I believe he sells sodas, water, ice cream, chips, and other snacks. There are bathrooms and a single shower. They have a ton of life guard watching your every move but you know it's for a good reason ;) They even have two diving boards on the deep side of the pool. Keep in mind, you cannot use any inflatable items in the big pool. I think the floaties are allowed in the baby pool only.

My suggestion is go early - ride the lazy river and whatever you really want to ride. This place fills up quickly. If you have little kids I'm sure they would have a blast. However our older kids got bored quickly and literally said - this is it?? The lazy river is small The outside water slides are very simplistic and can get huge lines. The wave park is small there's no other word here to even begin to describe it. The one flow rider that they have - the two guys running it let a person on and gave them all sorts of time if they liked the person. 4 people were in front of my kids and it took more than 45 min for them to get a turn. So not worth the wait. Granted we have been to Hershey Park water park which is about 10x+ bigger than this waterpark. We also are close to Kalahari and Great Wolf both of which have larger water parks than this place. Overall review 2.5 stars - again little kids would probably have a great time. Older kids not so much. However the price tag just isn't worth what you get. Beware they are adding on an adult only area. Looks to be more hotel than waterpark.

Every time we come, we never pay for the waterpark because we attend the seminar for the timeshares and they give us free passes! I love that I am now able to pass this tradition on to my children.

This is a nice splash pad/park combo. Both areas are clean…read moreand well maintained. The splash pad has several fun features for kids and my 10 month old enjoyed it as well. There is a pavilion with picnic benches under it beside the park as well as a large grassy area offering ample sitting room. There are 2 separate playgrounds, one for 5 and under and one for the older kids. Just be careful when kids go back and forth from splash pad to playground because I have heard a couple stories of children slipping on the metal playground structures when wet, which could obviously be dangerous. One thing I do like about the playground is that the ground is the soft rubbery stuff and not pebbles or mulch, so my little one can crawl around as well. One thing that would make the playground better is if it was covered. Unless it's overcast or evening, the structures probably get too hot to use during the summer. Overall a very nice and fun place for the kids to burn some energy!
