I don't frequent many water parks, but this one was tons of fun. I wish I lived closer so I could come here on the weekends during the hot summers.
Their attempt at a winter recreation park needs upgrading. The snow tubing hardly had any snow, only half of the runs were open, with mud at the top. The tow rope does not work and you have to climb the hill pulling the very heavy tube. My boys could only do this 2 times and they were worn out. Until the kinks are worked out and they offer more activities...SAVE YOUR MONEY!
We took our toddler there for a summer weekend getaway. She loved it. We have been there many times before she was born. The slides are pretty good but could use some updates. The new baby pool was nice but one of the fountains didn't work. The toddler area was neat but there were too many big kids on it to allow my daughter to play. Overall it is a good park for low budget family fun.
If I had checked out tripvisor first we would have not gone here! I had read online that they had put 5 million dollars into fixing it up, so I wanted to see the improvements. Yes, the bathrooms were cleaner than before, there is now a small pool for the little ones. (Which was closed!) They put in a large spray ground with a dump bucket but if your kids are very young and you want to keep your eye on them this is not the place. They were short staffed and not all slides were opened which made the lines even longer. Then they would close the open slides and open the closed ones. I noticed it was not that clean and there were a lot of leaves in the lazy river.The wave pool was not very wavy at all. Still in need of a lot of improvement and general upkeep.. I don't see 5 million dollars worth of improvement here, and I also don't see 35 acres.
We Loved, Loved Loved it each time we went. So that means multiple visits. I am now 51 years old but I loved the tall fast water slides all the way to the lazy river. I rode it all. I had my little grandchildren in the children's part. I also let them ride some of the slides with me. It is a very family friendly place to go in the summer. I would highly recommend it for the family or just for yourself to relax and have some fun.
You can find cheap tickets, and it's not bad. They have an awesome big slide. It's not as good as Kings Island's water park, but you can find better deals and they have some different things. Not bad at all to try.
This waterpark has been struggling to stay alive for years with Kings Island waterpark across the street but I prefer this waterpark much better as it's not as crowded and I love Reggae Sundays. If you're looking for a day at the waterpark I would definetly recommend The Beach.
My family visited the Beach Mountain today and to say we were disappointed would be an understatement! The ad on the website states "with a variety of different runs and levels for you to try" when in reality there was only one small hill with a few lanes open! The sign in front of the hill described the ride as "an intense participatory ride" which was also misleading because there was nothing close to intense about tubing down this short hill. If it was so intense why were preschool children tubing down the hill? For 24.00 a person I feel like I was majorly scammed and will never visit Beach Mountain or the Beach Waterpark again...False advertising st its finest!
Enjoy short lines, tasty food, palm trees, and less crowds compared to K.I. My kids enjoy the Beach because it is less crowded and has attractions to meet all of their interests. We enjoy the family time we can spend at the beach.
The Beach Mountain consists of one relatively small, straight hill with around 10 separate lanes. Your ticket is good for 2 hours, but everyone was bored after one hour. Half of the lanes on the hill were closed. The moving walkway to the top worked well. The small snow "play area" has one place where you can throw snowballs, if you can get the snow to pack, at a plywood house. The small tubing area for little kids was closed. The tickets are expensive for one short hill, so you would be better to save this money and go to Perfect North.
