The rides, slides, pools, and atmosphere are all incredibly wonderful. more on Yahoo! Travel

I was prepared to spend money in there anyway for ice-cream and things. more on Yahoo! Travel

Next make sure you bring food and plenty of drinks. more on Epinions.com

We definitely got our money's worth. more on TripAdvisor

The only downside to the park was it is a bit spendy to get in and once in it costs you an arm and a leg to buy anything, however you can bring coolers into the park but for lunch I would recommend leaving the park and travelling to one of the many fast food establishments in the area. more on Yahoo!

You can sit like a frog on a log complaining about the price,or you can go gangbusters and have fun all day long. My wife and I went 2 years ago with our 2 kids. I was surprised at how much it cost to get in, but once I got past the ... more on Yahoo! Travel

My family fell in love with water parks a while back. Unfortunately, we were not impressed with this one. It did not appear to be as clean, nor have as many 'attractions' as many other parks we've visited do. If you've ... more on Yahoo! Travel
