![]() ![]() We get to the water park ready to have an amazing time at Splash Island, but it is CLOSED?!! Bummer! Bummed out about Splash Island and the tubes ($10 each) not being included in the admission price, we go to one of the pools. Our family includes children at 1, 3, and 12 years of age. Maybe it will be better someday if they can find staff and open more than 10% of the park. I can see why a season pass is only $19.99 more than a day pass.Because no one would ever make the mistake of going to this park more than once. A local told me that it has been like this all summer. The employees told me that most of the park has been closed all summer and even on busy Saturdays the same rides are closed. If more than 10% of the place had been open then this would have been a fantastic experience. This was a huge disappointment especially since the park had no problem charging full price for admission. ![]() The few slides that were open had extremely long lines since there was really nothing else for people to ride. Almost all of the waterslides were closed. The wave pool closed for about 30 minutes every 2 hours because someone pooped in the pool. More than half of the waterpark was also closed including all of the toddler areas. I asked about this.One person said it was "due to staffing" and the other said it was "due to extreme heat that could break the rides." Of course all of the $5-$10 games are fully staffed and were completely empty of customers the whole day. ![]() On the Hawk (upside-down ride), they were only filling 12 of the 40 available seats. For example, they were only running 2 of the Model T cars (that run on rails) even though there were another 10 cars sitting unused on the side. Almost all of the rides and waterslides were closed, and of the rides that were open they were not running anywhere near full capacity. After we spent over $200 on admission & parking, we quickly discovered that almost all of the park was closed "due to staffing." I actually thought that maybe we had just arrived early and maybe the park wasn't open yet, but that was not the case. If you love staring at closed rides and waterslides, waiting in long lines for the 10% of the park that is actually open, and paying full price for admission then this place is for you! ![]()
