The water park is a fantastic way to beat the heat and relax away from the roller coasters, and…read morethis was my first time checking out Paul Metto's Dockside Bar in the adult pool area. The space itself is really nice and even features live music, which adds a great touch. Seating is pretty limited, though, so I'd highly recommend renting a cabana if you visit on a busy day. Unfortunately, the bar service left a lot to be desired. The area was packed, and they only had two bartenders who were a bit slow, especially considering the crowd size. Even though a manager eventually jumped in to help, the line was still taking up to 30 minutes. We actually wanted to buy more drinks, but the wait just wasn't worth it. The frozen drinks are incredibly refreshing on a hot day, but the slow service definitely made them harder to enjoy. I am hoping this improves as this was one of the reasons to get a season pass.

Came to the Waterpark on a Friday around 12:30 pm and visited their adult pool Bar "Paul Metto's…read moreBoathouse Bar" I loved it! Great music and ambiance. Plenty of lounge chairs to choose from and plenty of swimming places in the pool. They have about 4 tabletops in the pool which once it gets busy, it will be hard to snag a spot there. They do have plenty of bar seating and benches inside and around the pool to sit down as well. They do not offer food so you will need to go outside the pool Bar area to purchase some food. They have everything from beers, seltzers, frozen cocktails, and canned wine. Definitely something fun to do on a summer weekend. After, you can always walk the theme park and enjoy some rides afterwards. Love it! They do offer cabanas as well and they offer food if you rent a cabana. This is located immediately to your right when you enter through the Waterpark entrance.
