They somehow manage to pack 2100 people is this small water park. What a waste of time. They are in desperate need of an expansion.
This was my first trip to Splash in the Boro and given that I have two young daughters, I'm sure this will not be my last. Everything was very clean and well priced, but with only three "adult" rides something was missing. If you have the time and a few extra bucks drive to Summer Waves. However, if your just going to let the little ones play this can be a lot of fun.
Note : I am letting my son write this. Splash in the Boro was so much ffun! I loved it! We went to this little river thingy where you lie on a float and you go around a track. There were buckets dumping on my head! There also waz agiant slide thing where you got a mat and went down FAST! I beat my friend Hamid. There was a ring holding monkey bar thingy, and it hurt! I couldn't hold on, and the steps were floats that move andd move your feet so I slipped! There is a lot more, but daddy says it's time for dinner bye!
Clean, well managed, helpful staff, lots of lifeguards, worry free play areas for little ones, big kid water slides, and separate little kid water slides. Lazy river is very popular during peak hours and can get crowed. Best times to go: first open and after 2pm.
Great place to take children, friends and family...have licensed life guards...very clean and well cared for facility. Has good snack bar for all your wants.
We bought season passes and have been here during the week and on the weekend (Sunday was crowded). Best time to get here is early on Tues, Wed, or Thurs. If you get your tickets on line you bypass the ticket counter which will save you a ton of time if it happens to be peak. Smaller park with 2 huge pools, one diving board. Attractions include a 5 person racer slide, one tube slide, two body slides, a lazy river, huge zero entrance play park with bucket and another huge splash pad with junior slides. Finally there is a rope course area and Georgia's only surf pool where you can body/knee board for free or pay 10 bucks and stand. There are cabana rentals and lots of huge umbrellas with chairs and loungers, but the seating does fill up, especially in the younger kid zones. We always found chairs over by the pools or by the slides. Large grassy area in back and a small smoking area far away from the masses. Showers are not the greatest, flow is variable, but they do have showers available and two family bathrooms. Cold water in the drinking fountains and good prices for lunch...kids meal is 3 bucks and includes drink, goldfish and either a hotdog, pb&j or grilled cheese. Adult meals max out around 7.50. Cheeseburger was good, 3.50. Buy a souvenir cup for 5 bucks and get refills for a buck. We have really enjoyed our time here; takes about 3 hours to try everything once without rushing. Lifeguards are attentive and there are many lifejackets for free use.
I enjoyed this place because it is not a huge waterpark and its very clean also, we did not go on a weekend so I cannot say how the crowds are then, but if you can go during the week early in the day or morning, it is fine, there was also plenty of seating, seats under large umbrellas which I liked.If you like large water parks with lots of slides, this is not for you.I did read where someone mentioned the bathroom attendant, I had a similar experience, I went in the bathroom right before they closed and they were cleaning, the bleach smell was more than anyone could handle, and to make it worse, the person cleaning didnt even have the main door to the bathroom entrance opened to help it air out, and after going into the bathroom into a stall, the attendant knocked on my stall door and asked me to move to another stall, what really disappointed me was that I emailed the management and they never replied back.
myself ,two daughters (adults) and 5 kids went.. Being on a smaller scale then other water parks, it fit our needs 100%.. ages of kids were 11~14. We could keep our "eye" on them. only time we saw them were when they checked in every 90 min.. the whole experience was clean, well staffed, snack and sandwich bars were well priced.. everything was clean..we stayed from 10 til 4.. only downfall, is this Labor Day it closes for the Season.. We will be back next year.. We drove 2 1/2 hours from Macon, but well worth it.. More than enough for the kids to do and they never got bored.. A perfect end to the Summer...
A wonderful water park. Clean, affordable and well maintained. A great day of fun for a family of all ages. The staff are all friendly but firm. They make sure everyone behaves and that it is enjoyable for all. Food options are good and prices are good. My grandchildren love it and I look forward to taking them. i am very impressed with this place and worth a ride for those living out of town.
This water park is unbeatable when it comes to being family friendly. The toddler splash pad and play area is PERFECT for the 1-4 year old crowd. It allows for the young ones to have a great time and splash around in just a few inches of water without being trampled by the big kids. The big kid play area is amazing too. It could use a few more thrilling big slides for the teens and older crowd but this is by far the absolutely best water park for little kids!!!
