Elizabeth Halicki

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What an awesome experience! The ropes and water course was super fun and full of laughs from start to finish. Our group was all adults, and we had a blast. The parking was easy, which made getting started stress-free. Tim, the manager, was great—very friendly and helpful— was so informative. Owned by a wholesome family. The whole place had a safe and welcoming vibe. I felt completely comfortable the entire time and would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fun adventure!”

“What a fun way to spend a Wednesday! Happy Hour at the aqua park was the right amount of fun for a great price! The guards are very attentive and I felt very safe. Families and adults will enjoy this fun way to play!! Thanks for a great experience.”

Whitney Cracco

“So much fun and laughs. Lake water was warm. We went on a Sunday in July. The 45 time limit is perfect because you are totally tired at the end. Helpful young staff. Snowcones are kinda pricey at $6.00 but it’s a pretty large cup. Porto potty on site and Place to change out of your clothes.”

Kelly Daniel

“We decided to do the happy hour on Wednesday, my boys (12 & 13) wanted to try both courses. They had a blast and said they would definitely come back. They limit the amount of people on each course and that makes it so much more enjoyable It really was a neat area. I enjoyed watching the wake boarders and when we were leaving we watched some of the people on the ski course on the other side. Looking forward to seeing yall again next year.”

Heather T

“This was my favorite part of our visit to Charleston. It’s a little outside of town but worth the drive. The teenage staff were the most polite and professional I’ve met at any summer attraction. The water was so great to swim in and our family had a blast. 10 out of 10!!!!”
