Best time
Visit on weekdays or during off-peak hours to avoid the crowded conditions that are frequently mentioned. The park gets noticeably busy during peak times, and narrow pathways and limited deck space make it harder to supervise children when crowded.
Visitor tip
Arrive early to secure shaded lounge areas and cabana spots, as shade is limited and highly valued given the sunny outdoor layout. These areas fill up quickly on busy days.
Visitor tip
Younger children (ages 5 and under) should take advantage of the Splash n Play program on Tuesdays 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM (June 17-July 29), which provides a dedicated, less crowded time for little ones to enjoy the splash pad and small slides.
