Red Oaks Waterpark

Kids enjoy Soak Station, a children's water playground with 68 features, including water jets, curtains and slides, plus bubbler jets and a six-foot tipping bucket; toddlers splash in the Spray & Play, with 15 water jets and bubblers at zero depth.

Grab a tube and float on the River Ride, a 990-foot moving river. Other waterpark features include: Triple Turn, a triple-flume waterslide; and Terrific Tides wave-action pool. The pool is heated to 78 degrees, so the water is just fine, all the time.

Waterford Oaks Waterpark

Splash in wave-action pool with shallow-end bubbler fountains. Pool water is heated to a very comfortable 78 degrees. The Big Bucket children's water playground features more than 30 interactive activities including a giant tipping bucket, waterfalls and sprays. Ragin' Rapids, a group raft ride starts at a height of three stories, carries riders 515 feet through drops and turns and ends in a splash-down pool.
