We FINALLY got to take our 8 & 12 yr old to the park & they loved it all! Our 12 yr old literally rode every single coaster (multiple times)! While our 8yr old wasn't quite as adventurous, there were still allot of other ride options to keep her busy.

Boomerang Bay was a nice little added feature since you get access to both parks for 1 price. DO NOT go there if you're wanting a full on water park! Boomerang Bay is a mini park at best, with very limited slides and a log ride. The biggest feature is their play area which offers a great place to cool down in those hot days.

Two major downfalls - EVERYTHING IS WAY OVERPRICED - EAT BEFORE YOU GO! A hot dog is almost $12 !!! Vending machine drinks were $5! However, they do say even though you can't bring outside food/drinks into the park, they do have a picnic area where they allow you to bring blankets & coolers for your lunch/snacks. Check website for details.

The other downfall is STAFF TRAINING (or lack thereof) & BEHAVIOR - We visited 2 different days last week & both times we literally could not find an employee that could answer any questions! By the 2nd visit it had become a running joke for us & eventually shared with each staffer that, you guessed it, couldn't answer our questions! One employee at the swim store at Boomerang Bay didn't know where we'd find the large lockers, which the map says to find AT THAT STORE! Later the same day, same store, another employee had no clue how the lockers worked or what time they'd time out. I was forced to go online, search the website & eventually finding the answer, & read aloud to him so he could help the next person. That seemed to go right over his head as he looked at me saying "yea I don't know" as I read him the info...WOW.

But the worst part of it is both visits felt like we were at a summer camp being run by a bunch of teen councellors who were also attending summer camp, NOT running it. There are many capable teens out there that can handle that kind of job & responsibilites, but most were not there the days we were. There were 3 employees total that were good at their job, even if they didn't have answers for us. Every other employee on both days said they don't know (the answer) & that they usually work in other sections & they don't know this one. I could see that's possible for a few, but 90%? & it was just a big joke to most of them as well, which kind of made me mad seeing how much money I was shelling out!

But overall it's a great place, pretty clean, with decent ride choices. But they have allot of room for overall improvement & I hope they do. It's so close to a 5 star rating if they could train their employees a little better & lower their food/drink prices where they can. I hope our trip back next year will have me coming back here to add those stars!
