I
found these items on CLEARANCE so check your store too! These pics were
taken at Big Lots in Elmwood - these items were in the back left of the
store - not on the regular school supply aisle!
so for $5 more you get unlimited admission through the end of the season!
SOAK THIS IN! I am giving away TWO 1-day passes -
scroll to the bottom of this post to enter to win!
WHAT YOU CAN DO...
The park has a Wavepool - Lazy River - Kiddie Splash Park area - mini-water slides - BIG BIG water slides - every time I turned around there was another slide!
My kids could hangout in the LAZY RIVER and Wavepool ALL DAY long...Ok, ok I really enjoy lounging in the tube and just floating along too:)
Earlier in the summer, I posted info on the BIG water slides of the park (you can see this info here)...On our last visit, we spent a lot more time having a Lazy day on the Lazy River - the music is fun and upbeat and you just simply grab a tube and start floating along...
There is LOTS of fun spray areas for the little ones, even a few mini-water slides for them too! My kid's favorite is the Pelican Bay bucket drop - the alarm sounds - everyone runs over - and SPLASH!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW...
Besides the fact that you are guaranteed a day filled with WATER FUN - they are all about the deals! As a Mom of 3, this is something I truly appreciate!
ADMISSION - prices are reasonable for 1-day admission ($29.99 and $21.99 for under 42"- Weekend price is higher at gate, so buy online!)
BUT the SEASON PASS IS THE WAY TO GO!!! Reduced now to only $34.99 - this pays for itself in basically 1 visit - and you can go back as many times as you want! Get yours here!
The park is open EVERY DAY thru August 10 - then weekends only thru September 13 (and September 7 Holiday too!) See the entire calendar of dates HERE
I upgraded one of my season passes to PREMIUM (for $36.99) - I got (2) free guest admissions (worth $60!) - a FREE cabana rental (worth $50!) - a FREE Refillable Sports Cup (worth $10) AND (2) free drink refills (worth $4) - and discounted swim lessons onsite! I saved over $100 with this upgrade! NOTE: No longer offering the upgrade as of 8/1/15:(
Rent a locker to store your valuables for $7 - and get $5 back when you return the key - Super easy to use and access- and only $2 at the end of the day!
COUPONS - With every season pass purchased (I got 4 of them) - you get a COUPON book good all summer long with over $1,000 in coupons that you can actually use (I have 4 books = $4,000 in coupons!)
For instance, I used these couponson our last trip:
Used (1) Family 4 pack hamburger combo meals for only $20 (reg price $7.75 each)
Used (4) upgrade the chips to fries coupons (worth $2 each) = FREE
Get a FREE refill for your water bottle (reg price $1.99) = FREE
So in coupons alone - I saved $21 on lunch!
The coupon book also includes Buy one Get one FREE Guest Admissions (so 2 guests for $29.99= $15 each!) $16 friend admission after 2 pm on Sundays (with a season passholder) - and a TON Of other great deals that are good ALL summer long!
WHAT IS FREE...
Parking is FREE!
Life jackets are FREE to use (especially helpful for the little ones! Limited supply)
Tubes are FREE to use!
Arrive early and grab a table/umbrella and chairs for the day (it's FREE too!)
FOOD - The food was AWESOME and cooked to order - hamburgers on an open flame! I think the fries were the best I have ever had!
The prices were totally reasonable - where else can you get 4 hamburgers, 4 fries, and 4 drinks for only $20? (see coupons used above!)
Note: If you buy the Refillable Sports Bottle for $9.99 you can get refills for $1.99 (or after 3:30 pm they are only $1.00!) - ask for a cup of ice or two and you can share with the kids!
No outside food or drinks allowed (and they do check your bags at the door) - but you can bring your Gulf Island Sports Bottle back every time!
Here is an idea of food/prices - they also have pizza (whole or by the slice)
