Water Park Attractions

This charming water park offers a wide range of activities for people of all ages and interests. If you're coming with family, take them down the twin 30-foot-high, 150-foot-long water slides. Do you want to go swimming? Take a dip in the six-lane zero-entry activity pool or take your small children to the adjoining water splash pool. (It barely goes down nine inches!) There are lots of lounging spaces and a concession stand where beverages and snacks may be purchased when it's time to unwind.

Bucky Dent Water Park also offers a variety of activities, including private swim lessons, swim team practices, and children's birthday parties, as well as public swimming hours and water aerobics courses. Certain spaces are available for hire and must be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
