Oh where do I start?
From the beginning I suppose. I went to this park with my daughter and three grandsons. While I enjoyed every minute with them, the park was disappointing.
1. Overpriced tickets: $75 per person is the standard rate. We paid $44 a person which is still way too much.
2. Food: you are not allowed to bring in outside food or drink, except water. However, I saw many moms sneak out the snacks from home later! 😂
$14 for one slice of pizza.
Kids meals are $9.99. Drinks are outrageous. The one thing I saw as a decent price was the turkey leg at $14.99.
We opted to order kids nugget meals for the three kids, and my daughter and I bought kids turkey wrap meals for us! The wrap wasn’t on the adult menu. Weird! But it was generous and a decent lunch for an adult. So at $9.99 for each person…. Not too bad. We also paid $20 for a refillable souvenir cup. Free refills same day, so we took advantage.
3. The Park:
Was reasonably clean. Plenty of chairs in the shade if you get there early.
Broken attractions everywhere: at the elementary age area, one slide not working, other play features broken.
At rock diving area: half closed, caves dry
Hot feet: so much walking on hot rough surfaces. My feet are a mess. Was not comfortable.
Wear water shoes!
4. The Dress Code:
Apparently there is none! I was appalled by the number of moms and teenage girls WITH THEIR MOMS wearing bikinis that showed their entire rear! Even some employees with one piece suits up their crack.
5. Weather:
As usual… the afternoon storms rolled in about 4 and everyone had to get out. Not a let down for us, since we got there at 10am. So we got $50 dippin dots and headed home.
Summary: if I knew all this ahead of time I would have opted for a splash pad or the aquarium.
Seems that bush gardens is not maintaining this park, and I’ve heard the same about the main park. Kinda sad, as I have sweet memories of the main park as a child and young adult with my kids.
