For a place that is geared towards families, I have to say our
experience was horrible. First I have to tell you that the water park is
on the top floor of a parking garage. This may seem unimportant but
because of our experience it is very important. We will never again go
to any indoor water park that is not on a ground level. Great Wolf Lodge
would probably be much better bet.
So the experience did not start
out negative. My son had about an hour and a half of fun and that was
it. And I do understand the situation that happened is not within the
control of the water park but what is, is how they handled the whole
situation.
A car caught on fire with excessive smoke right below the
water park. The water park had to be evacuated immediately. You could
smell the smoke and see it coming in. I completely agree with this and
glad they did it. But here is the problem. I could not find my son. I
let one of the employees know who was very nice, he took my son’s name
and info and I also handed over a picture. And I proceeded to leave as
instructed. I also spoke with several other employees as I was leaving
asking if they had seen my son. I did of course eventually find my son
who was crying to no end. I asked him why he didn’t go to an employee
and tell them he couldn’t find me. To my surprise he told me he did but
was told to keep going. This is unacceptable. There should be something
in place for kids who are unable to find their parents. You do not let a
10 year old child evacuate a building without an adult or at least a
designated area for him to go to where parents can find their children
and where they will be safe.
My son wanted nothing to do with this
place after this incident and nor did I. I find the handling of this
situation incompetent and laughable to say the least.
I usually have
photos but since we did not stay anywhere near the 6 hours I thought we
would, I did not get a chance to take any photos.
