Pretty nice place, but way too crowded. We drove over an hour and a half to go there, and didn't get there until 3 - thinking four hours would be plenty of time to hit all the slides a few times. That was our mistake. We purchased the family pack thinking we could just walk right in when we got there (why else would they charge a convenience fee for paying online?), but of course it couldn't be that easy. We had to wait in line for an hour in the hot sun just to get up to guest services and give them our printout for some tickets and wristbands. We have a two year old daughter and since we didn't anticipate waiting this long my group held our spot in line while I went back to the car to get water for everyone. When we asked for a locker we were told they were all sold out. So then we had to go back to our cars to put away our stuff. By the time we got into the park, it was about 20 minutes before they told everyone to get out of the water because there were some clouds above us. No rain, no lightning, just a little bit of wind and a temperature drop. We decided to go use our meal voucher that came with our family package, but after waiting in line at the Raging Dog, we discovered that they didn't have any fries there and we were supposed to redeem our voucher at the Shark Bite restaurant if we wanted our "Bucket O' Fries". At this point they resumed operations and we then proceeded to wait in another long line for food. By the time we got our food it was already 6 (they close at 7) and I had about 15 minutes of time in the water. We ate our food and then only had enough time to go in the lazy river before we had to leave. I had a feeling this place was going to be crowded on a day like this with 94 degree weather, but the lines were ridiculous and management did nothing to make them go faster. My advice to management: get some covering for people who have to wait in line before getting inside, give people a heads up (maybe printed on the voucher) that they should go to the Shark Bite restaurant to redeem the meal voucher if they want fries, and get some more lockers. If you ever decide to go there definitely get there early and try to go on a weekday when there aren't a bajillion people. Only thing I can say is at least they have good fries.
