This was a fun but short ride. The wait was even worse. It took us an hour and a half to get through the line. There were many people trying to cut through the line making the wait even longer. They need more help on the moving deck to get people loading on and off so it could be more organized. Many rafts went down empty or have full which caused longer wait times. They need to stack more riders together. We had people join us on the raft. More help and organization is needed on this ride. Including the person in the tower controlling the rafts entering and exiting there is lack of communication there. Hope they get some help with this ride. It’s fun and you...

Calico River Rapids is a river rapids ride in Ghost Town where riders float down a raging river on a circular raft, passing by animatronic wildlife and scenery. The raft has a small compartment in the center where riders can stuff belongings they want to protect from the water. However, note that this compartment is tiny and you'll share it with the other passengers.

The raft spins and moves quickly with the current and riders WILL get wet - anywhere from mild splashes to completely soaked 💦 Definitely a fun ride but consider the time of day when you decide to hop on as you'll likely be wet after this ride!

Wait time is generally...
