Pros:

The waterpark was amazing.

Cons:

The bar was out of a lot of things when I wanted to get my kids a special drink. There was no food open in the morning and either at night. We had to leave to go get food and the whole point of us staying there was to accommodate not leaving. It was my daughter’s birthday and it just made things extremely inconvenient to the point we checked out early and everything.

My family had a fun time at the waterpark. We also like the outdoor trail, arcade and ice cream bar
Pros:

I prefer to eat breakfast at the cafe near the gift store. It has coffee, juice and egg sandwiches.

Cons:

Generally, the waterpark/hotel does a very good job at adequately staffing with professional people. I have no complaints.
