Wet Zone

This place is great. Nothing big or fancy but perfect for cooling off on a hot summer day. We went on a groupon but even without, the prices are reasonable. Only a couple of slides but we just really wanted to cool off and get out if the house. Easy to get to right of George Bush. Not very crowded even with a couple if daycares being there. The kids were disappoint that there was no wave pool but this is a great alternative to Hawaiian Park. Much less crowded and way more shaded seating. We didn’t even have to wrestle to get a chair. There is a small snack shop there but I think they let in coolers. Don’t forget your sunscreen! I won’t be making that mistake again.

We went on a Sunday and thank goodness we got there early because it got very full, very quick. This place is more appropriate for small children as they don’t have enough space for teenagers or adults. Thank goodness we went on a groupon because otherwise it wouldn’t have been worth it.

Had so much fun here! We rented a cabana which was reasonably priced. We went bc of groupon and with all 12 of us there were plenty of things to do!

First visit was for a birthday party so later brought the family. Great inexpensive fun for our family on a budget… get Groupon! Short drive basic concession options

Season passes are a super affordable option for beating the Texas summertime heat. It’s a small, no frills place. Love it that you can bring a cooler at no charge.

We decided to give swim lessons a try for the kiddo. It is convenient to where we live and it looked like it would be fun. Well… that is NOT the case!
While she had a good time and learned a little bit, I feel like the lifeguards were not as «professional» as we’d hoped. I realize they are mostly high school kids, but this is a job, not social time for them.
Not only did they spend more time playing with the kids (not babysitters!) than teaching them anything, but they had conversations that were NOT rated PG around the patrons and especially the kids that were waiting for lessons to start.
On more than one occasion, there were multiple guards sitting on the lifeguard stand (a BIG no-​no!) while they talked to each other instead of watching the water/​swimmers like they were supposed to. The female lifeguards (on the stands) were MUCH more attentive than most of the males, but overall we were not impressed.
To make matters worse, there seems to be a HUGE honeybee problem. My son was terrified to go watch his sister practice for fear of being stung! There was a parent that dropped his kids off for practice and refused to stay because of the bee infestation and another parent that had a bee sting his shirt but luckily didn’t get him! Since there is minimal foliage/​flowers, I imagine that was due to lack of cleanliness. I come to this conclusion since most days there was obviously some sort of (blue) stickiness on several chairs/​tables where we sat while swim lessons were in session.
If this is how they are going to run their after hours swim lessons, we most certainly will NOT be attending this water park DURING business hours nor recommending it to others!
What a huge disappointment, Wet Zone!
