Splash it up and beat the heat at this watery refuge in Simpsonville. This Greenville County waterpark has a variety of slides and water activities for kids of all ages! The park has rentable cabanas, perfect for parents to relax under while their children choose between the tube slide or the body slide at the top of a 25 foot tower. Older kids can test their balance surfing on the park's FlowRider Perpetual Wave (the only wave-generating ride for surfing in SC!). Kids of all ages will enjoy floating in tubes along the 270-foot-long lazy river. The park also features a 4-tier Splash 'n Play Structure in the zero-depth section of the main pool. Discovery Island has concession stands and public lockers. The park also has 3 party huts available for rent. The park makes planning your child's summer birthday party a breeze with packages that include waterpark admission, pizza, cake, ice cream, drinks, utensils, printable invitations & thank you notes, a personal party host/hostess, and a 2-hour Party Patio rental. The FlowRider surf machine is available for exclusive rentals on Sunday mornings. For very large groups, the entire park can be rented out. All rentals can be booked online through the County website. The park is generally open from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
