the cove waterpark

I went here with my mom and younger sister this past week and was sadly disappointed after having read the reviews on Yelp. I think the thing is that this is probably a great park for parents with young children. However, for a twenty-something trying to find something fun to do with her 14-year-old sister, it was a bit underwhelming. They have a couple of slides and a big play area for the younger kids. We ended up sitting in the lazy river for about an hour before we just thought it would be better to go home. Definitely not worth $16 for a group of teens/twenty-somethings. I think next time, I'll just find a coupon for Knott's Soak City and enjoy a bigger water park for only $9 more.

I have been coming to the water park for a couple of years now. I do not have any kids, I come with an adult girlfriend. We love it because it's relaxing, a great way to get your vitamin D and much less expensive and closer than Glen Ivy. They do have a limited number of chaise lounges, but you can bring a mat and a rolled up towel for a pillow or a small chair if you want to. Ask about bringing one of those banana chairs! The food is okay. The nachos are made with corn tortillas they deep fry on site covered with plenty of canned cheese. Not health, but oh so good. I believe they do offer some healthier options to choose from. Get a season pass if you are retired, you'll love it!

Not your big water park. Just a nice place to cool off in the summer if you live or are staying local.

I went to this place when if first opened and my kids were around 12-ish. Too old for this place I think, but it would be a blast for the younger ones.

I would not recommend to go to the polar plunge. It is ver disorganized and the waiting is too long just to dive with santa. Even if it is free, i would not go back ever. We were there from 10 am and waited for 3 amd a half hours just to dive with santa. It is so upsetting.

This is quite a small park with four 'rides' but, it is close to home, the crowds aren't bad and the cost is ok. The kids enjoyed the three slides and especially liked the flow rider. The good at the park, like most places of this type is greasy and expensive. But for an afternoon get away, it is great!

Obvious present of lifeguards on every few feet keep the crowd on check. The use of life jacket for younger kids is strictly enforced. This is the only place where I saw in numerous time, the lifeguards would go on resolving the potential problem right away. Wild teenagers alike with their rowdy behavior won't have any chance to hurt the younger kiddos. I feel safe, and that's important because the feel of safety then translate into everybody's focusing on enjoying the park, smiling and nice towards others. All those positive stops when you enter the restroom and the cafe. Like night and day. Those two facilities are disgusting, dirty, with constant nasty wet floor. Tissues everywhere. Crumbs and trashes everywhere. You have more chances to get hurt on those wet floors than getting hurt at the actual waterpark it self. What an irony.

They have lazy river and a big water slide, no big lines. Admission is $18.00 for adults and $14.00 for juniors, They also have food inside and lockers, offer lifeguard lessons and swim lessons. It can be hard to find a shady place under an umbrella. It is a lot of fun, and my kids had a blast. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is that I went there, with 2 free junior admissions coupons, won by my kids for finishing the reading program at the local library, and they said they have to charge me $4.oo/kid anyway, "because kids are taller than, 30-40". That should not have to do anything with their reading award, in my opinion.
