💬 What Visitors Say

🕐Arrive early to avoid 10-20 minute front desk lines during peak times, especially if you have a season pass. Multiple reviews noted long waits at entry even with quick day passes.
💬Purchase a 10-visit punch card or season pass for significant savings if visiting multiple times. Military rates are especially affordable ($7 day pass, $40 pavilion rental), so always bring your military ID.
💡The kiddie area and splash pad are popular but may have limited hours or closures. Call ahead to confirm they're open, especially if visiting specifically for toddlers. Life vests are available for young swimmers.
💬Be aware that the park enforces 10-minute mandatory safety breaks at the end of each hour. Plan your visit accordingly, and know that swimming ability is required for the two slides.
💡Bring water shoes or sandals—reviewers noted the paint markers around the pool become very slippery when wet and pose a slip hazard on the concrete.
