The lifeguards in the water park have eagle eyes. I got knocked down in the wave pool & each time I came up for air another wave would hit me & I couldn't get my breath. A lifeguard named, Blake, saw what was happening & jumped in and saved me. I could not get out by myself as a large gentleman was blocking my access to the side. Thank God for Blake.

Some of the rides are rickety such as The Hurler and sometimes it's overcrowded. The Fury's 1st drop is incredible as well as the Intimidator but they are terribly bumpy if you have neck problems.

Scarowinds is not very scary but but fun for teenagers. Anyone younger than 13 may have some nightmares though. Make sure you know your kids. Also, the fog is rough on your lungs if you have asthma or other lung issues.

The food is good and they give free cups of water and encourage people to stay hydrated each day due to the extreme summer heat.

You really need to be in good shape because there is an extreme amount of walking as with any amusement park.
