"Booked an overnight stay while Nana was in town to enjoy the water park as a family. The water park offered something to occupy everyone for the whole day. Nana, her kids, grandson and great grandson. The hotel and staff were wonderful as well. Everyone in our party was 100% satisfied with our stay and we are certainly planning to go back again."
