We paid about 700 in total with taxes for about 2 nights stay so I do think it is a tad expensive hence the 4 stars. Also the lodging, not sound proof at all with kids running sounds at 1 am and water running through the pipes sounds all the time also. That's all the negatives though. For 5 year old with parents we loved the water park! We could go to all the slides even the big family one! We only skipped the ones that were 48 inches and above overall about 3. It wasn't as big as I thought it would be but nevertheless loads of fun! Daughter didn't want to leave the water park after 2 full days. The mountain coaster ride was also fun although you don't get the scenic view of the area as the elevation it takes you to is not so high. Bowling lanes are pretty small so good upto 1-2 graders I would think! Mini golf is also small indoor kinds really geared more towards smaller kids and these activities are additional cost! Hemisphere has good all you can eat but little expebsive at 17 for breakfast and 24 for dinner for adults! Nevertheless, I would still recommend since it a good sneak away weekend for mostly folks in new York New Jersey metropolitan area!
