had a great time with the kids.... lots of lifeguards around for our safety. there are many water slides and different water heights for the small to adult size people,
They have pretty much everything at this city park pool.Two pools; one with diving well. Large section of one of the pools is for small kids. They have splash park area if don't feel like getting into pool.
Burdette Water Park is a great family-oriented water park! We try to come here almost every summer for one day of water fun! My personal three favorite attractions there are the diving boards, the snack bar, and the water slides. If and when you do go to the snack bar, you MUST get the chili cheese dog and the cili cheese fries!! I love Burdette and their staff is amazing in emergencies! All in all... This park is..... FUN!!
We've been here many times. The water park is the largest in the Evansville area and has something for every age group or interest. We usually go once per summer, partly because it is a little pricey for a family to all go. The rest of the park is pretty. We have stayed in the chalets before, but they also offer camping and you can rent shelter houses for the day for family reunions or large gatherings.
The pools are very large and nice, but they always seem to be extremely crowded and there is one section kept closed for some reason. The rest of the park is well maintained and there is lots of wildlife to observe. Very nice and large park.
Last weekend a group of friends got together and stayed in one of the chalets at Burdette Park. Our chalet had room for 8, nice kitchen and livingroom and a great fireplace. Since it was a cold weekend we burned lots of wood and enjoyed the indoors while it snowed outside. We found the lodging to be in good shape although we were missing one dining room chair. In addition to supplying most of what we needed for the weekend (linens, paper towels, etc) they also supplied us with firewood. I would highly recommend one of the chalets for a getaway with the girls or even a couples getaway.
Security seemed to be everywhere in this park. It started making me feel uncomfortable after seeing the third security vehicle (all the same?) in just a few minutes. Otherwise the park is very pretty and enjoyable.
This pool is great for young children. They have a huge area that is about one to two feet deep with little kid water slides. In addition, the have a splash pad that is great for young ones. The older ones will enjoy the deep pools and diving broads. They also have water slides for older children that are very fun and free with admission. They have a variety of food at the snack area. Only down side it that lockers are a quarter to use and no one really has change anymore.
We have camped here 3 times this past season and really enjoyed it all 3 times. The manager, Sue, is great and easy to get long with. The place is kept clean and the restrooms are nice. The sites are a bit close to each other, but not much can be done about that. The campground is one end of an awesome 3+ mile paved trail that goes to the University of Southern Indiana. It has some serious hills, but is fun to walk, jog and bike. One of the times, we also used the waterpark/pool and it was fun and very clean.
This is a wonderful park. Their aquadic center has a large Olympic pool; a family pool and a large baby pool. The baby pool has four slides for the kids. The family pool has three water slides for the adults. They also have a spray park. They have numerous rentals available for large parties. There is plenty of hiking and trails to walk. I highly recommend burdette park.
