I grew up going to this park, as I got older I continued to come, with family and friends that I have met along the way to adulthood. My boyfriend and I came on Sunday, my first time back in a couple years, we pull in, parking was raised to 15 dollars instead of 10. OK, no problem, we park in the back of the lot, no problem, we gather our things, put our sunscreen on and walk to the entrance. I was SO excited. Started waiting in line to get our tickets, then I realized the prices has been raised to 45.99 per person, with tax, 50.59 per person. For most people they wouldn't even think twice, OR they have already paid for parking and made the trip down so they buy the tickets anyways. We came from Kirkland, which isn't terribly far, but already being tight on money and finally having a day off together we wanted to enjoy it in the sun at Wild Waves! We ended up leaving, no refund for the parking when we were only there for 20 minutes. I was so upset I couldn't enjoy the rest of my day. I'll still come back to Wild Waves when money isn't a option, but I will never come back without buying my tickets online before hand at a discount price. I cant imagine the families with 3+ kids who want to spend at day at the water park. Really breaking the bank Wild Waves.
