  We visited the parks on July 31, 2026. We had four waterpark tickets and three amusement park tickets because we had a young child that couldn’t go on the waterpark. It rained on and off all day and two of the people in the waterpark group did not get to ride on any ride. They waited in line 40 minutes. When they got to the front of the line they closed the ride. We were given seven rain checks equal to the original tickets verbally and they said they would email it to me. They made a mistake in the email so I never received it. I called on our way there today to make sure we would be able to get in and they said all I would have to do is show my ID and they would give us the tickets at the gate when we arrived. They had the three amusement park tickets, but not the 4 water park tickets when we arrived. We were here to celebrate a birthday of a six year-old, one of the ones who did not get to ride last time we came. They checked and found the three tickets and the email sent to the wrong address, but still would not in honor the four waterpark tickets. We are now replanning our birthday celebration with a very disappointed six year old.

  I was concerned with all the reviews about our visit but it was not nearly as bad as some had described. (Granted I understand each experience is subjective) It definitely has some stagnant water smells in some areas but I imagine it’s difficult to avoid that lol overall it was pretty clean. All the staff were friendly and offered help when needed. The lockers were easy to use and the changing rooms were tidy enough. The lifeguards were attentive and addressed any issues promptly. I do feel like it was priced a little high considering I bought the tickets over 30 days in advance. After fees and all about $135 for me and 1 child. I’ve experienced better but have definitely experienced worse! It does warrant another visit should we be in the area!

  Had a party here! Got a party room and had pizza. It was real good. Kids had a blast. Best place to have a party. We enjoyed the water park. Wasn’t too busy on a summer Wednesday. Weather was hot. Recommend the refillable cup. I filled it up a dozen times. Storm clouds were in the sky which stopped the rides and wave pool. It passed fairly quick and we were back on the amusement park rides and playing games. Rolling Thunder was down for maintenance ☹️ Best way to end the summer!

  **STILL WAITING ON A EMAIL RESPONSE FROM MANAGEMENT** If I could give it no stars I would. We went Friday night and did the theme park. Should of been my first clue, because on a Friday night it was a ghost town. We got in line for the mouse ride, it was running one car at time because of staffing. We finally got to the head of the line and they notified us it was closing because of weather (it was not raining and lightening was over 20 miles away), but other rides "may" be open. We went into the Mystic Mansion, most of the lasers were in operable so that ride was kind of a bust. My kids then wanted to go to the big blue roller coaster. So we get in line, waited and waited, then get up to the front and they tell us the ride is closed for maintenance, then they said it was closed for weather. We decided to go out of the park to the arcade until the weather passed. It sprinkled a little bit then we went back into the park. We were told the mouse ride would be closed because it was wet and again they weren't sure what other rides were open. So we basically paid $127 plus $15 in tax!!! to ride maybe 3 things. The next day we decided to go to the Waterpark and maybe we would have better luck there. I had read on the website if you paid for the theme park you could get a discount on the waterpark tickets. The guy at the ticket counter told me that was "not a thing" and that we had to pay full price for the waterpark admission. So another $300+ dollars for the waterpark, and then he says "the theme park is included in your waterpark ticket they should of told you that yesterday" So at this point I am fuming and honestly wanted to leave but my kids were excited to have a good time. It was a weekend so I did expect it to be busy, but it was packed! Like beyond packed! We got a locker, then went to the bathrooms before we began. The women's bathroom was absolutely disgusting. Wet toilet paper, hair, used tampons all over the floor. I'm glad I had water shoes on, I wouldn't walk on that floor barefoot. We went to the smaller kids area first, and it was ok, just lots of unsupervised kids cutting in line and knocking into people. My kids then wanted to go to the bigger slides on the other side of the park. The tube slides are very poorly managed. You have to wait 10+ minutes in line for a tube then 30+ minutes in line for the ride. Then people are not giving up their tubes at the end of the ride and just getting back in line. The floors inside the park were disgusting and reeked of sewer and urine. I am surprised we didn't get some kind of foot fungus for walking on those floors since you aren't allowed to wear your water shoes on the rides. Not sure if we will be back. I wish I would of read reviews before we went. We didn't order any food so I cant comment on that, but food wait time I was told was over an hour and there was no where to sit and eat. We ended up eating outside the park at a restaurant, which was pretty good.

  This place just felt dirty, and some attractions were not open due to staffing. When you walk up the tower for the tube slides, you’re greeted with the scent of urine that smells like you’re in a dive bar urinal. I can only imagine how much pee we had to walk through to smell that bad. Once you make up, there’s only one person to help with two rides, and the 3rd tube ride was shut down due to staffing issues. They seem to rotate and take breaks every 20 minutes. That one person had to manage the main line, line for two other slides and weighing riders ( some did this, some didn’t, and when they did, the rides really backed up). Up on the top level there was once again one person managing two rides. We easily waited 25 min with only 5 people in front of us for the pink/purple drop out slide because it took so long for the ride to reset after each rider. My brother told me a staffer down below really needed to be pushing a button to reset it, but he was busy attending to the other ride, and there was no way for the staff to communicate. The stairs had multiple, gross looking mystery substances. Outside in the park, most rides were closed due to lightning in the area. The Haunted ride where you shoot guns didn’t really work well. The carnival games that were open were under staffed, and one stuffy we got was covered in maybe cobwebs? I’m not sure if it’s end of summer, but the park felt deserted. We will not be returning in future years.
