If you stay at the hotel it's only $5 for entry. This place is separate from the facility, and they don't really advertise it- but it is awesome! I was salty I missed it a few years back, but I make sure I get in here every time I get a chance!

There's eight activities to do here including a haunted house, escape room, XD dark ride, mini golf, roller skating, and a bounce house - you could definitely spend a few hours here. If you're going to do at least two of the activities, consider doing one of the passes rather than paying individually. Place is clean and fairly large. Staff is friendly, but seemed a little overwhelmed when 2+ groups were waiting in line. Plenty of parking available in their large lot.

Honestly, it's just as fun for the adults (if not more fun!) because of the awesome atmosphere, friendly owners, and swim-up bar! The water slides are huge, the splash playground/little kid area is so much fun, and there's also a small lazy river. This place is fun for anyone from a baby to a grandparent. I would highly recommend! Skip Castaway Bay and Cedar Point and come here sometime instead. It's an epic place.

I realize this is a huge place and you can't watch everybody but there are dangerous predators all over your establishment. Security and police were called multiple times for different unrelated incidents during our 3 night stay. Upon checkout, one person hogged over 7 carts and left their belongings on them. Have an employee hand out one cart per family. We were on the 3rd floor, so I needed a cart that was not available. I took half my belongings down by hand before a cart was available. Housekeeping also never made the beds or replaced the caffeinated coffee pods in the room. So, I left zero tip for them. In summary, this place's upside is AMAZING FUN. You come here to relax and go on the slides. Everything else I mentioned doesn't hold a candle to the amount of fun you can have here.

We booked a two room suite with kitchen (due to dietary restrictions which Kalahari cannot accommodate). I had reached out to get a list of items provided in the kitchen to know what I would need to pack in order to prepare a dinner and breakfast for 6 people. The following are items in the unit versus what was supposed to be provided. - 4 steak knives, not 6 - 8 spoons, not 12 - 6 forks, not 12 - 11 knives, not 12 - No whisk (I was making a salad dressing, so I did need this and did not pack one) - 10 dinner plates, not 12 - 4 coffee mugs, not 6 - No kitchen towels (I had to use a bathing towel to place all of our washed dishes, and another for drying) - No dishwasher detergent (I planned to run it before we left, but there wasn't anything available). My guess is this is why dishes were so dirty. If guests cannot run the dishwasher, housekeeping probably has to do this in addition to their other chores. In addition, the one pot we used (I brought my own stock pot, large pan, and colander), the glass lid was disgusting, so we washed that. We also hand washed everything else we needed before using it since the cleanliness was lacking. I should have taken a pic, but we were hungry and I wanted to get dinner started. The dining table had a film on it, like it had not been properly cleaned in a while. Fortunately we packed Chlorox wipes and wiped down everything we planned on using. And the jets in the tub had noticable mold (pic of one, but all jets were dirty. And I didn't seek this out, it was visible while sitting on the toilet. I mentioned it to two other people and they had already noticed it as well). I know this may sound picky, but we didn't seek to find anything gross or look any further than obvious things we were using. So I imagine there was more dirtiness we didn't see. For the price per night, we expected to have all listed items and basic cleanliness. This will probably be our last trip to Kalahari as the quality has gone down, prices up, and so much nickle and diming.

Greg's Coaster Collection: Ride #9 - The Mine Ride Category:…read moreFamily Coaster | Rating: 3.5/5 | Best For: Families & Young Coaster Fans | Wait Time: (usually short lines) The Mine Ride is one of Cedar Point's classic family-friendly attractions -- it's a fun roller coaster that's definitely not about speed or scares, but it's perfect for kids and anyone looking to take it easy while still enjoying a coaster experience. The layout is cool, with some gentle twists and turns that give it personality without overwhelming younger riders. It's a nice change of pace from the big thrill rides and a great way to bring the whole family into the fun side of Cedar Point. Ride Stats: Moderate length and speed (official stats not listed) Best Seat: Anywhere, it's a smooth, comfortable ride Pro Tip: Perfect for a quick break or to introduce kids to coasters. Photo-Worthy? Not really, but it's charming in its own way. Personal Note: The Mine Ride is a solid choice when you want to slow down but still enjoy Cedar Point's coaster magic with family or little ones. It's all about fun and smiles, no thrills required.

When riding in the evening near the water, there were some big clouds of bugs, so may want to keep mouths shut lest you eat some.

Greg's Coaster Collection: Ride #10 - Iron Dragon Category:…read moreSuspended Coaster | Rating: 4/5 | Best For: Families & Coaster Fans Looking for Fun | Wait Time: (usually short to moderate waits) Iron Dragon is one of Cedar Point's smoothest and best-designed suspended coasters. It's not a white-knuckle thrill ride, but that's exactly what makes it great -- it's fun, fluid, and has a unique layout that feels different from the traditional coaster. The swooping turns and suspended seats give you a nice, breezy ride that's easy to enjoy whether you're a coaster newbie or just want something a little more chill. It's a solid park staple that's likely to stay around for a long time, and I'm happy about that. Ride Stats: 2,200 feet of track * Moderate speeds and smooth turns Best Seat: Anywhere, but front seats give the best views Pro Tip: Ride at less busy times for a more relaxed experience. Photo-Worthy? Not super, but the track weaving through trees makes for some neat shots. Personal Note: Iron Dragon is a great way to take a breather and still get some coaster fun in. It's classic Cedar Point, and it's here to stay.
