I was looking for something close to home that the kids would enjoy. And I found it! Its not too big, but I like that cause I could see the kids at all times. Also the staff there was friendly and they have someone who also helps you watch over the children playing. It was fun and free. What else could you ask for?

Our summer camp kids loved it! Cant wait to go back! The staff are welcoming and friendly. The only negative thing I can say is that the park doesnt open until 1 p.m., the city should consider opening it up at 12 p.m.

I love that its free, usually a nice place, but yesterday the attended was very rude to my friends son. They also had to close early due to plumbing problems

This place is terrible. Pulled up at 1230 was told doesn’t open until 1, and no hours posted to indicate that. It’s now 1:06 and they have to put chlorine in and we have to wait another 10-15 minutes. So what were they doing for 30 minutes before it opened? It is free but damn either don’t open or open the right way. I have a special needs kid who doesn’t understand why we can’t keep going inside.

Unless you specifically type this place in, you will not know it exists. Well for the people who live there yrs, but you get my point. Ive driven pass this place over 100 times and I saw it up and running earlier today. Was like, what the hell is that? Its a freakin splash park! And its FREE!? Talk about in house advertisement.

It would be a lot better if there were shaded areas, places you can eat and the bathrooms were accessible. The rules are never followed, the hours are not completely accurate and the day we went a child my childs age left teeth marks on my child because he wanted to play with a toy my child was playing with. When we brought it to the attention of the parent whom was in a conversation with the front desk person, instead of kicking the child out he got a time out for a few minutes and then right back to playing and fighting over toys with other children. The rules posted say that particular behavior is not to be tolerated, but I guess not for all. Either way, this splash park has real potential to be amazing, but as they say thats why we cant have nice things. Keep an eye on your kids.

May 24, 2018 @1:26pmHave been here since 12:45pm waiting for the splash park to open with 2 kids and no one has yet to arrive when google clearly states splash park opens at 1:00pm. Hours should be displayed on site or at least updated on google. Disappointed with the irresponsibility and negligence of the operators of this beautiful park.

Review №17

This is a great place to take the kids for a few hours and adults you can bring a chair. I recommend only a chair for the parents because space is limited for sitting

Kids love this splash park and its free. Would recommend for kids age 1-7 yrs. There is a playground just outside of the fence, too. At the water park, there is a variety of colorful water-spraying fixtures and two water cannon things make the park more interactive. You are allowed to bring water in a non-glass container which is a must on hot days because there is NO shade or seating. If you go in the afternoon, the sun casts a shadow on one side of the building so if you sit next to the fence you can get out of the sun, or if you stand in the entryway there is no sun there. Wish the bathrooms were kept a little cleaner since they can get a little trashed with all the little kids running around. Would be so nice if they put up those hanging cloth shades and some benches around the edge for parents to sit.
