I’d definitely come back
Pros:

I loved that it was easy to get too. Easy drive. I loved that there was free activities for the kids to do.

Cons:

It’s definitely over expensive. The rooms only have a fridge. No fridge freezer combo. Just fridge. Which sucks.

Pros:

The staff was friendly and helpful. The arcade, the Waterpark, mini golf and mini bowling was all pretty fun.

Cons:

Some of the other guests were rather rude and acted entitled. I do believe for for price of the 2 day stay breakfast should have been included.

It was great! We will be back.
Pros:

The waterpark was great and the lifeguards were on high alert so that was comforting.

Cons:

Very minor: The room had a little bit of a smell to it but we understand it's a waterpark hotel. Under the sink vanity was pretty dirty with other peoples belongings and hairballs (I dropped an earring). Again, minor and easy fix.
