I was very excited about this place when it first opened. Nice park, nice area, decent obstacles, close to home. Then something changed and I avoid returning to Hydrous Allen. They intermittently slow the cable down for "new" riders while the cable is spinning. Off the dock, the speed maybe 19, by the time I get to the backside, the speed could be 15. This all but eliminates hitting kickers, and rail hits are drastically different. By catering to "new" riders, Hydrous is completely alienating the experienced riders. They have 3 2 tower systems that are perfect for beginners, but Hydrous decides to slow down the main cable instead to accommodate these people. The operators are terrible. With a line of 10 people waiting to get off the dock, I counted 5 empty carriers go by with out a single person getting off the dock. They have also reduced the number of obstacles on the main lake, so less hits per lap. I really want to like this cable, but if they continue to operate this way, Ill continue driving from Dallas to Waco to ride BSR.

I want to note that I am referring to the new Little Elm location. L. E. does not have their own page. Took my 9 year to Hydrous in Little Elm today, hoping that he would get the love of the water sport. Wrong!! We chose to go to the beginner pond for some up close instructions. I ended up telling him what to do. The teenager in charge of the pond, Chase, was more interested in the pretty assistant he had. He kept his eyes on her more than the kids on the water. One attempt to get up went horrible, cause while he was sitting ready to go, Chase, pulled the rope backwards at full speed and yanked him out of the water the wrong way. Everyone on the shore knew it hurt cause we all could hear him grown. The instructor, Chase, also called another child out to his friends saying, Oh great that kid is here, he sucks, were going to be here all day. Definitely was not a great experience for my son, and will not be back to this location. Bummer, its only 3 minutes from my house

I am 48 years old and had never been wakeboarding (or waterskiing for that matter) until I first went to Hydrous two years ago. I had very limited balance sport experience and absolutely no talent for this type of activity. I have been to the Allen location over 80 times now and this is the FUNNEST thing I have ever done! Have a great time and get an awesome workout. I am not a big risk taker and the great thing is that this can be done safely if you are reasonably sane. I suspect that the bad reviews on here are by people who complain about everything, because Hydrous Allen is spectacular. One bit of advice though, check facebook for hours before coming out.

the owners of these parks are liars. they run a terrible business and completely rip you off in every way possible. there establishments are not in any way up to health code, as well as the cable constantly breaks. they cut corners building the little elm location and you can defiantly tell. they have no rails, terrible staff, a long wait, and their water literally looks like crap.(several people have gotten staff, and the owner does nothing about it.) if you cant to really see what a well run cable park is like id check out bsr. not only is it cheaper, but it is a quality park, with quality staff, quality rails, and a clean environment.

A "private party" apparently means nothing different than a regular pass, you get worked in with everybody else. A 17 yr old checked us in and couldnt find our waivers. Literally a 12 yr old checked out the equipment to us. (Somehow that doesnt seem safe or legal) After an hour of not making any headway I asked if they could maybe at least explain some basics to my group and I felt like I really put them out. No public bathrooms because they were out of order. If you like spending money with no expectation of customer service, then this is the place for you.

Ever since we figured out the Little Elm location was going to be a wakeboard park, our two girls couldnt wait to try it out. Since it opened a while back our girls have been about 5 times and beg to go all the time now. One time was with the girls soccer team and everyone had a blast (10 yr old girls and we used the grand opening birthday special to get them all in for $100 which was basically $10 each for two hours). We have started using Hydrous as an incentive for doing chores, getting good grades, etc... Our girls are 8 and 10 yrs old.

Its 2:35 pm banner says 2.00 and allen park still closed, this is what happens when you leave a bunch of kids run the store. Ive been in little elm park is good but staff is so slow sometimes theres 2 people riding and like a line of 20, operators are more interested in having a good time chatting than actually working, hope owners do something. Finally got to ride at 2.43 pm here in allen, i like little elm better than here tho, but I think its better and cheaper, if I rent a boat.

Hydrous is a fantastic facility. The staff are extremely helpful and very friendly. They are more than willing to help anyone out with any tips they may have. The kickers and rails are fantastic. I cant wait to see the place grow and hope to continue riding there for years to come!

been told by many pro wakeboarders from all over the world that this is the best cable wakepark in the country ... not only is everything top notch but every event theyve sponsored at the park has been the best time ive ever had! Fun, friendly atmosphere & staff ... thumbs up!

Id like to add that yes its run by inexperienced teenagers, but its because of the management that its so bad. I knew people who worked there and Ive heard why things are the way they are. Some of the staff is great, some are incompetent.

Hydrous is really great. I learned to wake board there. I am nearly 70, and I highly recommend it to anyone of any age in good enough shape to participate. It is fun and great exercise. I go there instead of the gym.

I have taking my son twice. We both absolutely love it! The workers are great people. They help my son learn how to ride and get better. Couldnt ask for more friendly or helpful people.

Horrible customer service, if they dont want to work and communicate with customers, then go home and shut down. Very disappointed, great concept, but horrible service.

This place if great! The people are nice and helpful. The rails and jumps are top notch. They keep improving things all of the time, I cant wait to watch this place grow.

Fun place! Casual and laid back - beginner friendly. Low barrier of entry compared to need to own a boat haha
