My family and I visited this place on July 2 , 2021 at around 2 pm to 4 pm. The place is pretty…read morenice. We had a great time. Clean water park. HOWEVER, I had a very sad and surprising encounter (since Nebraskans are supposed to be nice and friendly, right?) with a life guard. My son and I accidentally went to a restricted area. Then this young boy ( blonde hair) caught my attention at about 5 feet away from me. I was in the pool and he was staring down at me through his sunglasses. Stared at me with so much contempt that would have made any Nazi officer proud. Silly me asked if there was a problem. A stare... then he said " you're not supposed to be there'. I asked why? That cold angry stare followed again.... Finally, he spoke ...." Are you in a swimming class?" I said , no, but if this area is for a class then I'm sorry I didn't know. I told my son to swim away and go somewhere else. Mr. Nazi Officer ( I learned later from one of the more friendly lifeguards that his name was Brian, Bryan, Briant, Ryan, I couldn't make out much because of the noise around me) walked slowly to his post feeling like the Boss. He thought he did a great job. Lol. Bottom line, if you want to have fun, keep your eyes opens for signs, etc... and stay away from life guards unless your drowning!!!

This is a fantastic water park- it's pretty new so has up-to-date locker rooms and showers. There's…read morea 310 foot long water raft slide and 235 foot body slide for big kids and a water feature with 20 different activities on it for the littler kids. There's also a wave pool, a lap pool, water cannon, water walk, shooting geysers, a boogie boogie keyboard and all surrounded by shaded or unshaded lounge chairs. Best water park in the state!

I wouldn't recommend this establishment at all. We have had issues on 3 out of 5 of our…read moresemi-private lessons although granted one was not there fault. Just to give full history: We enrolled our two sons. First Semi-Private Lesson (Trial): One of two lessons that had no issues. Second Semi-Private Lesson: We enrolled on the app. We had the confirmation email. We arrived on time. They didn't have us on the schedule for the day. They spent five minutes trying to figure it out. Our kids spent 20 minutes in the water. Third Semi-Private Lesson: There was a "Code Brown" so we needed to make up the class. Not there fault. Fourth Semi-Private Lesson: The second lesson that had no issues. Fifth Semi-Private Lesson (Make-Up): We scheduled on the app for the 9:15am-9:45am class on a Saturday. We received an email that this was our time to go in. We arrived at this time and sent our kids in. There was 5 minutes of confusion in the pool area where Our kids went from one teacher to another and then they were sent out at 9:30am. Apparently although we had confirmation that the class was at 9:15am, their system said 9am in some locations and 9:15am in others. Confused we tried to talk to the older receptionist/admin on duty. She was adamant that we were in the wrong and that we were being rude although she was raising her voice to us. I then showed her the confirmation email which resulted in her changing her tone. In all this confusion, they "graciously" let our kids go back in the pool for another 10 minutes. After which I asked for a printout of their remaining classes and to have them dropped from the program after with the younger receptionist/admin. She did explain that it was a fairly new system and that she could see the discrepancy. What left a real soar spot for me about this whole experience was that nobody apologized for this situation. I was obviously upset about what was happening. Not necessarily at them but about the situation and how they didn't seem to care to help resolve it. They cared more about explaining why it wasn't there fault and making us out to be the bad guys then trying to rectify the issues their system caused. A little customer service to address a poor situation goes along way.

The owner Kate Newey Bilobran wrote me a bounced check for my services and refuses to pay me. My…read morename is Kecia Lee and I am granddaughter of Bob Hanson and niece of Ken Hanson. I'm a full-time yoga instructor in CA. In January I made a trip to visit my family in Arnold's Park for the holidays and to introduce them to my newborn son, Makoa. Studio owner, Kate, had broken her elbow and heard through the grapevine that I was an available yoga instructor. Needing somebody to sub her classes, she reached out to me. I was finishing up maternity leave (my son was just 3 mos old), but I agreed to help her out. I thought it'd be a great way to earn some much needed extra cash and a fun way to jump back into teaching. When it came time to pay me, Kate began to drift in communication. After much persistence on my end, she finally agreed to meet me at the studio on my way out of town to give me a check. Upon my arrival home, I deposited the check. The check bounced and my bank charged me a $19 fee. In effect, I actually PAID to teach two classes at her studio. Any new mother knows how hard it is to part with your newborn. What disrespect to me, my son, and my family members who agreed to take care of him while I taught. I informed Kate of the bounced check and the fee charged to me. She still has yet to pay me and ignores all of my communication. Bad business and completely lacking in integrity. Even more, she is failing to uphold the moral pillars of yoga. On a personal note, I am a single mom, and although $80 may not seem like much to Kate, it's a lot to me at this time in my life. I could have shrugged off her lack of payment if it didn't include a surprise lack of funds and a fee on my end. If she was unable or unwilling to pay me, all she had to do was have open communication with me.

Studio Burn 360 is a boutique fitness studio offering barre workouts, yoga, and cycling classes…read more For you urbanites, the studio is in line with Pure Barre, SoulCycle, and Core Power Yoga- offering challenging workouts, upbeat club music and precise coaching from instructors to maximize your workout. I took Barre Bootcamp on a Sunday morning in July. First of all, the location is super convenient, in the middle of Arnolds Park on 71, with ample free parking for customers. THE VIBE When I walked in the studio, I was greeted warmly by Kate, the owner and my instructor. She had a space set up for me with a mat, stretchy tube, ball, and asked me to pick small hand weights- either 3 or 5lbs each, with an encouraging "class is gonna be intense today!" There were 4 other women in the class of varying ages and sizes, and we had plenty of personal space for our workout. The studio entrance has ample cubby space to stash your stuff, unique merchandise for sale, and a very cool, contemporary club vibe with a stone wall, fireplace, and lounge area for customers. THE CLASS Kate is a professionally trained dancer, she played great music and she wore a headset (I love when instructors do this- so helpful). She did the entire workout with us, which goes a long way in my book--- having an expert model the moves and do it with you builds confidence for workout novices. It also helps build goodwill that we're all in this together, and no matter how fit someone is, there is always room to grow and refine your movements. I like that she gave me verbal feedback "Great form Kimberly, you got it!" as well as helpful modifications "Kimberly, try to keep your left leg bent a little, like that," so I was getting the most from the workout. The class is fun and fast paced, and covers a whole body workout focusing on the abs/core, arms, thighs, tush, etc. There was a great balance of guided stretching after each focused exercise, too, so you warm up and push to that perfect zone of resistance. After a nice cool down and a "namaste," we were on our way. A solid, fun, transformative 60 min workout! Kate checked in with me after and thanked me for coming. All their merchandise is 40% off now, too! COST: This will be the biggest shocker for rural folks and native Iowans, because Studio Burn 360 is not inexpensive. Classes run about $20/each. This is in line with what these classes cost in major cities, but it's pretty steep for the region. That said, I encourage you to try a small package, like what I did. You can do 5 classes for $95.00. This way, I see the SB360 classes being a great, "special" complement to your regular fitness regime at the YMCA or at home. OVERALL: If you're looking to change things up, experiment with a new workout and have some fun, check out Studio Burn 360!
