We usually visit Hurricane Harbor in the summer but this was one of the few water parks open, so we came to Wild Island. The entry fee is cheaper than most ($32). We paid $36 per person which includes the meal combo. I highly reccomend this because if you decide to order one inside the gates they are $10 ea, so you're saving $6. They are large meals too! Ours had 4 or 5 large chicken strips, about 2 cups of fries and a fountain soda all included. I posted photos of the menu. Cash and card are both accepted. From the website you can order food to avoid the line as well! Adults, they have well drinks, beer on tap, wine, canned beer and blended drinks. These range about $7-9. The smoking area is just outside the gates so you don't have to smell smoke, but is very close. Hands are stamped for reentry. The bar is not open until close for those wanting to grab one more quick drink. Speaking of re-entry, YES, re-entry is allowed. If you leave something in your car, kids want a quick snack or drink, you can run to your car and come back in. NO FOOD OR DRINKS are allowed in the park unless you purchase them inside other than UNOPENED water bottles. They do bag checks, so be prepared. There is ample seating I'm the covered areas and in the sun. We got here at 1pm on a thursday and had no trouble getting seats. There are lockers available for $6(sm), $7(m) and $8(L). We left our towels on our chairs and a zipped bag the whole time and no one messed with it. I bought a waterproof phone pouch with a lanyard prior to coming and kept my car key, cards, phone and cash in it while in the wave pool though. They dont allow it or any phones on the water slides. There are several slides for all levels of adventure seeking, a lazy river, splash park for littles, and wave pool. For those wondering, there is not wifi available. COVID UPDATE: Masks are required and enforced. You have to wear a mask if you're sitting or standing around, getting food, getting drinks, going to the restroom etc. If you're in the water or walking from one attraction to the next (inside the water park) you do not have to mask up. The staff is friendly about reminding those who forget to put it up once they sit down unlike many places where it seems you're harrassed if you forget.

Mini golf is pretty good. Our group made arrangements at a group rate. Somehow we didn’t make it onto the list that’s OK. It was only one dollar more. $11 each for 18 holes. The kids had a great time that’s what really mattered.!!! It was a little crowded at noon. We let people go in front of us we’re slow golfers lol.

Great place to take the kids for summer. We got a season pass last year, and it's worth it if you plan on going A LOT. Has several water slides at different levels of advancement, so there's a wide range to choose from-9 slides plus a lazy river and a wave pool. The only thing I wish, (because we go sooo much), is that there were a few more slides to choose from, as sometimes you get tired of the same ones over and over and over again. Maybe add a new one every few years? I know. A big request. But wouldn't that be great?? Overall 8 out of 10. My kiddos on the other hand, would say 10 outta 10.
