Every year, we try to take the kids to a water park.  It's great fun for the whole family no matter what age they happen to be.  Our kids have a 4 year difference in age of each other, so it's particularly helpful to have so many diverse options to make everyone happy.

According to 10Best.com: "When the summer is at its hottest, millions of visitors head to America's water parks to cool off. We asked a panel of experts to nominate their favorite outdoor water parks in the country for the ultimate day of sun and fun."

Coming in at number one was a place called Aquatica Orlando in, you guessed it, Orlando, Florida!

Rolling in as runner up?  Lost Island, the largest waterpark in Iowa!  This Waterloo waterpark offers a variety of rides "for the faint of heart to the extreme daredevil."  A perfect road trip destination if you the tropics but want to save some cash.

We are honored to be voted #2 in USA Today's 10 Best Outdoor Waterparks in the US for 2022!! Thank you to all who voted for us! We look forward to another season of making memories with your families!

They're Hiring!

Imagine working there for the summer! Most positions require staff members to be 16, but they have a few roles available for 14 & 15 year olds.

Why Should You Go?

It's an island getaway in the middle of Iowa. Surround yourself with palm trees and island music while you relax in our lazy river, race your friends and family down one of our 11 major waterslides, take the little ones through our four kids areas, and finish your day with a race at Monaleo speedway and a round of adventure golf.
