Open for the Season

Our splash area is the perfect place to cool down during your visit. Kids can have fun boarding the Alice Dean steamboat, firing water cannons, guiding toy boats along the river, and more. This area is full of hands-on activities that encourage pretend play and family interaction.

  • Splash and Play

    We've created this experience with your comfort and convenience in mind. Large storage cubbies can accommodate towels and beach bags, and dimmable lights in the nursing room create a relaxing experience for those nursing a baby or a quiet space. Additional shady spots outdoors invite adults to relax in the shade while keeping an eye on their children.

    River Crossing is located on the other side of the covered bridge in The Junction.
