I believe this is the best outdoor water park in IA. Centrally located in Waterloo with a campground, golf and casino located nearby.
Thank you for your feedback regarding Lost Island. I must apologize for the service you received when you called yesterday. There is no excuse for the treatment you received and the staff member who spoke with you has been disciplined for his behavior. Your 2014 tickets can still be redeemed for golf, go-kart, or zipline activities through the end of September, however, Lost Island tickets cannot be purchased one year and used the next because they expire just as any other theme park's tickets expire at the end of a season. Please consider giving Lost Island another chance in the future. I am confident that you will be pleasantly surprised.
Tickets to the Lost Island Park are great gifts to give. Our out of state families come here to enjoy their gift and have a great time.
Lost Island is an amazing waterpark, especially for being in Iowa. We are lucky to have it. It has become my family's favorite getaway, we are there at least 3 times a summer. The people are friendly and the entire experience is fantastic. Worth checking out, for sure.
Lost Island is always a good time! It is easy to get to. Parking is easy. There are restaurants nearby. Hotels nearby. fun stuff.
If you think there is a better waterpark than this in the us you are mistaken. This place is the best, short lines, on the ball staff, well looked after and a great variety of rides. Worth every penny.
We spent a great day there. We had families with kids of different ages & some adults without kids & everyone had fun!! They opened at 10:30 & we got there before 11:00 & the lines to get in were VERY LONG!! They definitely should have a few more people working the ticket lines when the park is just opening!! And also, they way they do the entrance is kind of stupid. First you stand in the very long line to buy your tickets & then you have to have someone else 4 feet away scans the tickets & for some reason the scanner was having difficulty so it took FOREVER to get it to work. BUY YOUR TICKETS AHEAD OF TIME ONLINE TO AVOID THE LINES.But once you get into the park it is very nice. Although the lines for some rides like the roller coaster were long, others weren't. We have been to lots of other waterparks & I felt this one could have a few more lifeguards. When our kids were in the Tahiti Treehouse I never saw a lifeguard & it was like a free for all. There are slides down it & they should have had someone standing at top to make sure the little ones get out before sending down another kid. I witnessed a lot of kids knocking into others. And in the Blue Iguana Lagoon the lifeguard never said anything to the kids on the cargo net that were knocking kids off & piling up
Best place to escape the heat of Midwest.OK lines, clean environment and well looked after. The lazy river was really funny! Most suitable for taking your 10 ages and up children.
So many rides/attractions! Lines moved very quickly. Every thing was fun and some kind of scary! Was busy, and some minor waiting mid afternoon. Later in the day you could go right back on most rides. Was costly for a larger family but a great time was had by all.
Great place to take the family, and now there is a huge hotel! Was well worth the trip and would do it again in a heart beat!
