I think it has enough to offer for an afternoon of wet play. My grandson, age 8, had a blast and asked to go back. This is my list of pros: 1. plenty of seating. 2. it had areas of shade. 3. plenty of lifeguards. 4. it appeared clean. Cons: 1. music was too loud. 2. lazy river pushed you out the the stream (into the deeper end) and was difficult to get back into the current once you were out. 3. the current at the end of the small slide was too swift and pushed you past the ladder into the deep water. (dangerous for poor swimmers) The biggest con was the theft of the inter tubes. Our first one was taken within five minutes of renting it. We arrived, paid admission, rented our inter tubes, and then went to the restrooms so the girls could use it and change while I waited outside with the tubes. Within 90 seconds a older child came up and took one. I told him those were ours and he put it back. We left the restrooms and went to find a place to sit. We stacked the tubes, and proceeded to walk around to check the place out (this was our first visit) we were gone less than five minutes, and when we returned one of the tubes was gone. REALLY!!! The second inter tube was taken when we placed them behind us while we sat at the edge of the splash pool. I told my daughter we SHOULD HAVE SAT ON THEM!! I mean they were sitting RIGHT BEHIND US. Now thats bold.... My suggestion to Management would be up the price of admission and let it INCLUDE the inter tubes then were would be no reason for taking someone else s We will not return, however, KIDDOS to wetlands for offering the kids someplace for go and play in the summer.

Nice cold water, perfect for younger people. Mainly a place for kids, no pool deeper then 5ft. The main slide is ok, not to extreme, not to lame. With the land thats here Id hope that they expand and make new attractions. Just one more intense slide, maybe a deeper pool. Also need more covered areas, sunburn is no joke, be safe. The restaurant could use some work. They could at least tell me how long cheese pizza, and stuffed cheese bread is going to take to make. Dont just let me stand there for 10 minutes, 20 minutes wondering "wheres my food?". All in all Id really recommend you dont eat here. I did enjoy how the upstairs dining Pavilion was covered and had no people there at all. In a crowded Park its amazing to be able to eat in peace up there.

Have visited several times. Only issue we have encountered has been older (apparently season pass holders) sunbathers rudely complain if they happen to get splashed the least bit. I reminded them that it was a water park and they should expect to get wet or maybe should seek a spot a little further from the water features. Great fun for the affordable price. Food prices reasonable. Drink prices quite high. Changing tables in both bathrooms would be a nice addition. Honestly, overall a great place for family fun. We travel from NC to visit the park a few times during the season each year.

I wont even give one star if it didnt make me! Worst water park Ive ever been to! Literally had kids harassing me and my family following us around and splashing us on purpose couldnt even enjoy the water. The lifeguard laughed about it and said its a free country and they can do what they want. No rules there and very unprofessional. The place was out of control. Also was floating on lazy river and had a little boy push me and my 3 year old daughter out of our float, luckily she had on a life jacket and the lifeguard in that area did nothing about it. Extremely dangerous to take a toddler there to swim.

Its a cute little water park. I didnt care for their inappropriate music choices (uncensored music and that song "wasnt me" -not family friendly in my opinion) but other than that its great, you can see the whole park from almost any point, so seeing an eye on your family is easy. The price is decent, and it cost about the same to eat there as it does at a McDonalds. Three fun big slides, two little kids slides, be lazy river, and a little kids area.

My three year old visited for the first time and sqam /floated in water for three hours occasionally transferring to total slide and water buckets. Very relaxed environment and ideal to blow a day and waste days of your childs energy. Price is reasonable also,half price after 3pm and every ticket 9$ on Sundays. Wetlands also throws private parties for a fee maybe have a little childs birthday party.

It was wonderful! My 3 year old grandchildren and their dad had a wonderful time as well as myself. Even though a bit crowded the employees handled it well. The prices were very reasonable, the facilities were outstanding for younger children and weve already decided to make this spot a regular for the summer. Our first visit but certainly not our last. Hahaha! A new tool to use as bribery!!

Pool was very dirty.. Hair balls, spoons,bugs and dirt floated by. I never been to a pool where they let people jump off the side especially with that many people in it and the life guard just watches them as they hit and splash other people jumping. Also water slides didnt Hardly work people had to push there self down them. Just disappointed to drive an hour and half for this..

Wish theyd tell how long food takes cause I stood there for 25 minutes waiting. Going there with my friend CANT WAIT! Love it there just feel like theres slot of kids that poop/pass there

Good time. Staff and visitors were all very pleasant. Short lines for the flumes. But, the lazy river is lacking. It should be separate from the pool, and be at least twice as long. Does really give you time to float lazily since you have to fight to paddle to stay in the lazy flow.

Small lwater park tucked off the highway. Nice place to take a dip with the family. Has few water slides. Pricing is reasonable as well. After 3 you get in for half price. Also if you have Brights Zoo membership you get in for half price before 3 and for 1/4 the price after 3.

The kids love it. They love the waterslides and always see their friends there. They have good lifegaurds, four on duty at all times. For me I get to find sun or shade to sit, watch, and relax for a while. If Im hungry I can get pizza to snack on and its good.
