Excellent Place!, Wed 25 Jun 2008
There were 4 lifeguards on duty. We had a great time. We met some new people and just had fun splashing around. We decided last minute to go since the weather warmed up. I found out that they have new hours this year 10 am til 6pm. An extra 2 hrs from last summer. Great place to take the kids.
A Wet And Wonderful Treat!, Sun 24 Jun 2007
This place was an absolutely perfect get-away on a hot summer day for my kids (and me!). my 1year old and 3 year old had a ball for hours...the pool is around 2 feet deep at its deepest and the entiire thing is shaped in a concave fashion (like a contact lens)...it progressively gets deeper...going from inches around the perimeter to 2 feet in the middle where there is a big mushroom that water cascades down from (liike a cylindrical waterfall). some parents were standing in the water, some were sitting at the water's edge some were in lawn chairs on the plush grass that surrounds the whole thing. there is a small 3-5yr old appropriate jungle gym with padded floor next to the pool. the bathrooms are OK. bring lunch and a lawn chair/towels and you and get ready for a great afternoon (you can definitely count on the kids napping after this activity!)
