We went here out of curiosity. The one in TX is awesome so we needed to check it out. Needless to say it is nothing like the one in TX but fun in its own right. Its fairly new so there are limited rides. The ones that were open were fun an we loved the wave pool. We had a... More

got 2012 season passes for $70/adult and $50/kids because of the delay in opening some of the rides last year. Even with the limited rides/area last year, the kids loved it and begged to go just about every day. We went 15-20 times last year and are planning on going as much this year. We got to try out try... More

Fun! Free parking, and you can bring your own food and drinks into the park, unlike other area waterparks. The wave river is the best! Also, free tubes, and prices are not outragous for food there.

Good things: Free tubes Bring in your own food and drink Bad things: Very few rides (hard time competing with larger waterpark only 30 min away)

Horrible - 1/3 completed park that wants full prices. The surrounding area to the park that was supposed to be built up 3 years ago is still undone. The park has all kinds of construction stuff around it that makes it look trashy and half done. The park itself is aabout 1/3 of the Texas one. They have not lived... More

Their wave pool is great fun! Not so much their water slides - several adults hit their head on an enclosed one, including me. Nearly thought I had a concussion.

The nice things: you can bring your own food and drinks inside the park and the parking is free. The Eh things-not a lot of attractions for small kids. It does have a swim up bar in a hot tub, but it is a little too hot when the outside temp is over 100! once all the rides and attractions... More
