The park isn't usually too busy and the water is heated during cold days. The slides are addicting and make you want to stay there for a while! It is quite expensive and pricey for admission, food, lockers etc. if you have the money for it then I highly recommend this waterpark. Offers great slides. And a really nice wave pool and lazy river! I HAD A BLAST!!

Rapids has the opportunity to be such an amazing water park but only if they managed it better…read more Servers and service is ok, it's a bunch of teenagers that clearly get minimal training, because they couldn't even tell us what energy drinks they had The best opportunity is limiting ticket sales per day, Rapids does not limit ticket sales so the lines are endlessly long. There's no express lines, one line for everyone If rapids management decided to limit there ticket sales to a correct amount of tickets everyone could get on all the slides, enjoy the lazy river and not miss out on anything Unfortunately you will miss out on slides because the lines are too long. Even if you get there at opening time Trust me we did it, it's impossible. Unless maybe you go on a weekday

They seem to rotate them out ever 30 minutes to an hour but you should always keep a close eye on young children. Better yet enroll them in one of the many safety/swim courses. Only issue could be finding close parking during peak times.

Returned here for a birthday party happening at the kids' water splash pad area. Young kids love…read morethe shallow swim area plus the spouting, spraying water, and climbing structures. This is perfect for little kids but not so much for older kids. There is a lifeguard there at all times, only watching this splashpad, which is very cool. Still must be very watchful as a parent. I wish there was more shade for seated, watching parents, but so be it. There is a shady picnic grassy area adjacent to the splash pad that can easily be used to host a birthday party. The picnic tables are not close enough to the splashpad to be able to watch your kids from here. This whole area is fenced in and only accessible by coming through the front of the Aquatic Center's check in gate. Then only those who purchase additional tickets can enter this area to use the splash pad. My friend brought coolers and had a nice party here. We first noticed the splash pad during swimming lessons here. Since it is inside of the Aquatic Center, it is not very visible from the road. Please note that only bathing suits are allowed; no normal shorts are allowed. They will enforce this! Plenty of parking in the parking lot.

I'm…read moreextremely disappointed that they have a really cool splash pad for the kids but only open a few times a week with horrible hours. You'd think a big splash pad in the middle of PBG would be open Monday - Sunday with decent hours. It really doesn't make sense. Please change your hours so me and I'm sure a lot of other families can come and enjoy the aquatic center!!!!

I normally don't leave reviews, but this experience was frustrating enough that I feel others…read moreshould know. I signed up for adult private swim lessons, paying $225 for what was supposed to be personalized instruction to improve my stroke and breathing. What I got was one unstructured session in the kiddie pool--just swimming back and forth with no technique correction, no feedback, nothing. It felt like the instructor had no idea what to do. When I brought this up, I was told the training manager would attend a future lesson to train the instructor during my session. That's not acceptable. I didn't sign up to pay for someone else's training session--I signed up for my lesson. Even worse, I found out the training manager had already been watching the original lesson and allowed it to happen that way. So how is anything going to improve? I asked to cancel and get a refund, and was told flat-out "no" due to policy--no apology, no ownership, no attempt to make things right. Also worth noting: the reception staff was rude and unwelcoming when I arrived, which set a bad tone from the start. I can't recommend this place for adult swim lessons. Between the lack of professionalism, poor instruction, and dismissive customer service, I left completely disappointed.

I was a little disappointed the lazy river tubes were one size, it would have been more enjoyable if they had kid sized ones.

We planned having lunch here & they actually have a sign telling people to order food, unacceptable. There's no way they clean the water before it opened because we got inside as soon as it opened and there were gross garbage in the water.

You may want to bring a wheelchair for older ones. You can visit the food area and gift shop to take home a stuffed animal and the area has air conditioning to help you cool down.

I had a lot of fun for my first time here. I recommend you go early if you want to go around the cable more frequently. As the day went on, it got busier. This is not just for kids. It is fun for anyone of all ages. It could be a little expensive for a large family as it's $40 for two hours at the cable park and $80 all day. Staff members were nice but this place felt disorganized. No one helped you pick out a board, get a helmet, or a life jacket. It's self serve so as first timers we didn't really understand if we helped ourselves or if someone was going to show us. Also, if the lines you wait in get wonky, the staff doesn't care. They're pretty chill but it seems like they need a little more organization to improve their customer service. You do have to sign a waiver before you go out and it's recommended to book online to save money. If you're late they will start your time upon arrival so you can still get your full two hours there. I'd love to come back. You'll fall a million times first but maybe you'll get the hang of it eventually.

My husband brought our son last weekend specifically for the giant dumping bucket -- the main attraction for many kids, especially little ones who thrive on routine and familiarity. Unfortunately, it was completely down. Things happen. I understand maintenance issues. What was upsetting was the response afterward. When I called to ask about it, I was treated as if I was crazy for not "checking the website." I follow the social media pages and saw nothing posted. Even after checking the website afterward, I still could not find any notice stating the bucket was out of service. Instead of empathy or even a simple apology, the employee was rude, dismissive, and ultimately hung up on me. As a parent of a neurodivergent child, preparing kids for plans and expectations matters more than most people realize. A major attraction being closed on Mother's Day weekend without clear communication was disappointing enough -- but the lack of compassion afterward made it far worse. Families deserve better communication and basic kindness.
