Hyland Hills Water World Review

This is a fun place to go. I've worked and lived by this park for decades. Water shoes are a must for really hot days when the walk ways heat up. Don't leave your stuff on the hill like everyone else does I've had my stuff stolen before. Use the lockers. Be prepared to walk a lot and take 3-4 people with you for the most fun.

((Off Topic)) . I admire Water World's efficiency. They use water storage in holding lakes/pounds along the creek just south ((after treatment of course)). I notice they also have a green house in the back to grow their flowers for the year. They hire mostly young people so you support them too by going. Over the years I've walked around the park and in the green areas nearby. Its a nice area. Its run by Hyland Hills. I think they are a non-profit. They operate a lot of parks and a mini golf course.

Very displeased with this place. Spent a lot of money for a dirty "cabana" that we only spent 2 hours in since the park closed early. Ground was so hot it burned my 3 year olds feet and her 9 year old cousin's leaving blisters. I strongly suggest anyone who unfortunately goes here to wear shoes the entire time. Staff was very unhelpful, and when I tried to express my concerns with management I recieved a very rude email then was ignored. I will not return to this place again.

My girls love this place. We got season passes and got our moneys worth. We preferred over Elitches.

Water world is always great but a few legit hot tubs would be good on a day like today whe it a little cold.

Loads of fun but get the early if you want to enjoy all of the rides without crazy wait times.

Many attractions, clean areas, and a great way to spend a summer weekend.

Well I see pic and every one in my family want to go do can some one plz tell me the websit about the titcket

Every year we go with my family. We buy Family Pack tickets at the king sooper and they give you a pizza bounch and 4 sodas.
You can also carry your cooler with food. Recomendadosuper recommended !!

Awesome place for all ages. They have plenty of free parking but if your kids are taller than 48 inches they will be charged as adults. For my 7year old, 5 year old, and myself we paid $135 to get it. Bring water world marked mountain dew cans or local coupons to save a few bucks or buy the season pass it's only a few dollars more.

Great family time to create memories together! The fast pass is the way to go. Avoid the lines and no carrying the tubes up the hills. The updates are great!

Should be renamed to 'Walking World' We were there for an hour before we rode any rides, even with the Tube Valet. We could NOT find our way around that place all day. I asked several employees where to enter some attractions and no one could tell me where to go. The map is horrible and does not help. We had to stand in 3 different lines just to get in and get settled into the park. Even though I did everything I could to bypass this by having tickets at Will Call and pre-arranging Tube Valet and lockers ahead of time. They sell too many Tube Valet tickets. There were people carrying their tubes into attractions from the bottom of the line before we got our Tube Valet and got in ourselves. This is not a place we will revisit. For the same drive time, less money, and better customer experience we'll go back to SilverWood in Idaho.

Didnt go for actual water world went for the Christmas light display. and had a great time. after the 1.5 hour wait to get in

Great fun but worth getting fast pass with out it you cant ride best ride without an hour wait

Gotta go during the week or the weekend crowds make it unbearable.

It was clean and nice, life gaurds could have been a bit more friendly (in regards to those walking around, not on a station). There was some steep hills to walk up, with heavy tubes. Very difficult for this asthmatic, but I did manage with several breaks and slow walking! Everything else was really clean pleasent!

Wish we wouldn't have gotten rained out. Got free rain check for another day which was cool

It is a fun but overpriced place to hang out with your family and friends.

I am so upset today. Every year for the last 6 years we have gotten a Water World pass. Today was the 1st day we went for the season and we drove around for 40 minutes and there was no parking. We left, had lunch, came back and another 20min of parking searches before we left. Cars were parked on curbs, sidewalks, in no parking zones, blocking the street, getting tickets on the public street on the North side, blocking stop signs, in the neighborhoods ... in all these years I've never seen so many people and so many cars. We didn't get to go inside today at all. I'm considering asking for a refund for our passes I'm so mad. Valet parking was full. The place was a mess. The dirt hills were full. I could see the water coaster line and it was 2 hours long on a Monday! This place isn't what it used to be. I can't imagine the mess it is inside. So if you're planning a trip, get a Lyft and plan on lines. I'll try again tomorrow and update the review. It's only 3 stars right now because of our past memories.

Oh dear! It was a year ago that I found out about waterworld and I was finally able to get the family out there from Albuquerque. It was everything we hoped for and so much more. A well kept facility and knowledgeable attentive workers impressed me to the core. We will definitely be back next year to spend a couple days AT LEAST

Always one of my favorite places to go during the summer

Very well paced based on the volume of visitors. Very well run. Music is times to the lights. There are 2 types of the 3D glasses. One shows snowflakes, one snowmen. A wonderful time for my family's visit from IL to spend a nice evening and and we'll worth the cost.

LOVE Waterworld. Season pass holder for 11 years. June is great, short lines but can get cold walking around wet. Parking is free. Coolers and food allowed (no glass). Do the rollercoaster (Mile High Flyer) early as the line gets long.

This place is run by teenagers. If you have any issue and need a manager, you get three levels of kids that have zero ability to help you, plus give you a juvenile attitude in the process.

Be weary of their cabanas - they bait and switch you and then send over the teeny boppers to tell you they cannot do anything with no adult to be found. Waste of money and energy. Elitch is a much better time and actually run by adults.

Thanks for ruining my sons bday WaterWorld!

Very fun park lifeguards are kinda young but other than that we really enjoyed our visit

Super fun rides, awesome and helpful staff, clean, organized and HUGE! The bungalows are worth their weight in gold! Far drive deep ding on where you live or are staying... but the admittance price is TOTALLY worth it. Skip Elitch's, come here instead!

Fun place to go for the day. So much to do you'll want to go back.

Great park, favorite with locals. Hands down the best waterpark you can go to.

One of the best water parks in the country. Lots of variety in attractions.

Alot of fun and plenty of rides. Fun as always and it was 80's night tonight

Great place for friends and family. Super fun and great variety in rides!

First time going here and it was a blast. Carrying rafts gets a little tiring haha. But fun!

Super fun, only complaint is how busy it was, but that's just cause of how much a blast it is.

Normally my visit here is awesome.. but when we went there were only 3 rides open. The big wave pool was closed it was 105 that day. They should have given tain checks. I will try it again but was very disappointed

The rides were amazing. Lines didnt take all too long. The food there was kind of expensive, but only at certain shops. The staff was super nice. I highly recommend journey to the center of the earth and the wave pool. Those two werd my favorites. Just remember water proof sunscreen and reapply it often.

This place is very family friendly, has good food, lines are decent, rides are awesome, and wave pool is fun! Good place for families, and friends during the summer!

If you don't get the fast pass, it's not worth your time.

It is very very fun it's just that the life guards don't really save you because I was kind of drowning I was still breathing in water and screaming HELP and they just looked at me.

Everything is great besides the pricing on food and tickets. Lines on weekends are huge too. Other then that, it's a great place to have fun! Lifeguards are friendly as well

Great place to spend the day. The tube valet makes the rides move A LOT slower than they have to, but there is sun and fun for sure.

Fun time for the whole family. More shady areas would be nice on a very sunny and hot day!!!!

Fun as far as water parks go, it's nice that they cut the price in half after 1:45

Amazing! The tube valet is worth the money! Be prepared for a lot of walking. Don't waste your money on the early entry. We arrived early enough to be in the front of the line to get in. Don't forget to reapply sunscreen throughout the day.

Great wave pool and slides and only gave it a 4 star due to waiting in a long line twice due to employee not explaining which line we needed to be in because online tickets have to go to a special line. Waited almost two hours all together so make sure you know for sure if your in the right line to get into the park. (Go early to beat the hundreds of people it will be worth it). I reccemened to buy the velet tubes pass you get a special line so no long wait and don't have to carry tubes up hills.

Rides are fun but the lines are awful. It's like herding cats trying to get in the park. For the lines alone, I won't be coming back.

If i could spend every summer day here, i absolutely would!! It's a little pricy but I highly recommend the tub valet! You'll thank me at the top of the Indiana Jones ride ;)

A little on the pricey side, but well worth it for the niece's birthday. Definitely great that they allow you to bring outside food and drinks.

Family 4 pack tickets are an awesome value. It includes pizza and a drink.
You can bring your own food but their food prices are very affordable no much more than the average fast food chain.

It was awesome and it was wet... I loved it! Beware though, bring your own food. And don't forget your own sealed water!

Kids was hot after the 7th day of Broncos training camp so we went to go chill out at water world for the after noon thanks great staff and great place for kids

Awesome place Certain things can be unprofessional and the Food is too Expensive But other than That awesome place.

Good and ausome but a lot of kids poop like fr but other wise ausome well done and keep on being ausome

There are so many great rides and slides here, you won't be able to get to everything in one day. Great place to spend a warm summer day.

It was so much fun to go! There are so many options that it never seems too busy. The fact that you can bring in your own food also helps keep the costs down. The only thing I would say is that they should make sure the tube valets never run out of tubes (they did, but it was still worth it). Also a larger group ride (for 10-12) would be awesome!

So much fun! Cabanas and early entry and tube valet were clutch!

Love this place! Way better than the water park at Elitches.

My family and I go every summer. It's so much fun!! There's so much to do and see.

Theres a lot of complaints about the food and having to walk everywhere. But there are gondolas that take you to the top and the bottom of the park. And the food is served by KIDS, NOT five star chefs. So yes, almost everythings going to come out of a bag or be prepared ahead of time. Also if you're going to complain that you waited in a line forever, remember sometimes theyre short staffed and you are NOT the only one that ordered something. Theres always a rush and every stand and they deal with rude customers everyday. They're kids working at a water park, its some of their first jobs.

Absolutely love this place! Great times with the family!
