If your child is under 40" forget about doing much...

If your child is under 40" forget about doing much of anything at this park. They only offer 4 slides for children under 40" tall. Also, their toddler section is quite limited. Staff is inconsistent, one day you can bring in some snacks for little ones and the next it is strictly enforced. Any parent with a child that is particular with snacks is out of luck. One day kids can ride medium slides and the next, they can't. There is almost nothing you can do together with your child.

They do not staff the park properly during the week so attractions such as the lazy river are "one participant or family tube at a time" so the single hairs on duty can push you and your family around the river. Some of the water features work, others are broken, and at least one major attraction (the family slide) was down for maintenance the two days we were here.

Half of the staff is friendly and also permits the kids to participate on features the kids can clearly handle. Other than that this place unfortunately has nothing for little kids. One life guard even stated, "every lifeguard operates differently." Simply put, this is a ski resort that can't compete with Blue Mountain in that regard and is attempting to compete with Kalahari and Great Wolf as a water park.

The air temperature in the water park area is chilly on overcast days and at night. Water temperature is chilly too. Our kids didn't want to go in the water after an hour or so because they were freezing and shivering; whereas, at Kalahari they played all day until they passed out.

The Camelback channel in the room promotes Aquatopia as "The best and biggest indoor water park on the East Coast". With Kalahari and Great Wolf Lodge down the street, I find this to be sheer propaganda. If you have kids above 48" and want a variety of little features besides the water park, this is a decent place (but all of their other fearures are add on expenses).

As for me, I have a 38" child and a 42" child and I will be heading back to Kalahari this winter. Camelback has lost my business as a snowboarder (local ski club group leader too btw who will never switch from Blue Mountain now) and as a parent.
