Melio Gaspari Water Play Park — Attraction in Spanish Springs

When we got there it was nice!!! My youngest daughter was having a blast!!! Then my older daughters & I decided to go in the water & cool off & run around with the my youngest. As soon as we get in the water, here comes 1 of the park staff talking about, "hey before I kick you guys out, I just wanna let you know that it's ok to get your legs & feet wet...but try not to get your clothes wet because of the cotton". So instead of confronting her & causing a scene, I didn't cause I had the baby. So I was like was like oh ok. Then she turns to my daughter and says, " we was just talking about your outfit...we were wondering where you got it from it's cute. Now mind you there was a Caucasian women running in the water fully dressed & soaked. She had on cotton capris legging & a cotton shirt! They didn't say anything to any other people that was in there with cotton shirts on! So my daughter was like why didn't say anything to anyone else running in the water? So I said, idk maybe they don't want our black juice to contaminate the water! And after we went & sat at the bench, the whole staff was staring at us, looking like we was about to steal the bench or something So I said to my kids lets go! To me the staff singled us out & their racist, so I won't be back!...

This is a great little splash park for small children. There are a few trees and shaded areas to sit and you can bring small umbrellas. There is a concession stand and restrooms within the gated play area. Watch out for ants and squirrels, they tend to hang around the perimeter. This park is age appropriate for 5 or 6 and under though older children can come. You can bring in your own food and drinks but please clean up behind your kids because no one wants to play in wet garbage 😝 Best time to come is on weekdays when they open at 10 am. It tends to get a little busier...

We really enjoyed a few hours here. The kids had fun with all the different water features and sprinklers. There are some nice shady places to sit, with nice grass and quite a few covered and uncovered picnic tables. On the hottest of days it would have been nice to get in earlier than 10:00. The ticket window opened about 2 minutes late (which is fine and understandable), but the water didn't come on until about 10 minutes after...
