10/10 Exceptional

It was amazing. Had an awesome time and felt cozy while we was there. Kids had a blast
Joshua, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a very fun stay, the wife and kids loved the experience. I can see it being very easy to get carried away and spend money there. The room was cozy and the kid enjoyed his bunkbed! Only complaint. For the price of the stay and all the money you could easily spend there if you book a room the parking should be free, but that wasn't a deal breaker. The rest of the experience was a phenomenal family trip!

2/10 Poor

My check-in wait was rather excessive. And I watched the lobby clear twice of other customers who came before and after I did before I received a room. And had to ask 2 times before requesting to speak with a manager about the matter. The rest of my stay was great!

8/10 Very good

Grandkids had a great time. So it is a fun family friendly place but not a cost family friendly place. The $20 plus tax parking fee was excessive and we feel parking should be free. Lockers available to store your things in the pool area if you are willing to pay the fee. Thankful that the towels in the pool area were no additional charge. Food choices are good and the food was good just be prepared for the high prices. There are lots of other activities for kids to do but you need to be willing to pay the $60-80 per child per activity to do them. Our advice is to go there with a very specific plan and have it all detailed out with your kids so they understand plan.

Everything you need is here! Little pricey but you pay for convenience.have a nice tiki bar in water.park that makes killer mix drinks. Smart thing to do is go next door to meijers and buy booze and bring your own plastic cup! The staff and lifeguards really do pay attention and care about your safety! I fell out of my tub and the life gaurd was right there before i could pop up making sure i didnt need help then asked if i was okay and and supervisor was there right away before i climed out juat to double check! I was fine! I caused the flip out of tube playing around! The rooms are comfy! And depending on room depends how unique they are!
