Never mind the fact that the park itself is like being in an echo chamber filled with tortured cats, this place is an accident waiting to happen. It seems that this is nothing more than a convenient place to abandon kids while you sit at a table and get pleasantly bombed. As a result, you've got little tribes of kids running around tormenting smaller kids, all the while screaming like Banshees.

The rules are supposed to be enforced by what are laughingly referred to as "Lifeguards". From what I saw, these people stroll around the area, displaying the insouciance normally reserved for billionaire debutantes forced to rub shoulders with the peasantry, while studiously ignoring any and all transgressors. Those that would like to do something can't because the noise level varies from "mind-blowing" to "ear-splitting", drowning out any requests for assistance.

On a positive note, the water must be clean since there is enough Chlorine in it to kill birds in the parking lot.

We stayed here with a Fairfield Inn package that included water park passes each day. Even after 5 days of using the water park for several hours each day, we were all sad to leave it. There are two HUGE tube slides and a long regular slide, as well as a lazy river and an incredible kids area. There is also an arcade and bar/restaurant area that we did not spend much time in. The kids could not get enough of this place. We could have stayed here for 10 hours a day if it was up to them. Will definitely come here again!

Just wanted to say that we had a nice time this past pre New Years weekend! We stayed for two nights and left on New Year's Day...bummer! Sounds like the facility had great things planned for that evening! Although the electricity went out the morning we arrived, and there was a line of people waiting to check in, the ladies behind the desk were tremendous and very, very, helpful! The manager was a gem! She came to our room to try and figure out the remote/TV and also gave us tokens for the arcade. We had conversations about the hotel, lets not forget the discussions we had about the Hotel Alex Johnson! :O), and the Black Hills in general, words can't say enough about your wonderful employees! We look forward to coming back real soon!

The indoor water park was so much fun. We all enjoyed it. My favorite part was going down the slide with the kids and the lazy river. You can never be to old to enjoy a cool slide. I felt that the park catered to all ages. There was a kiddie area with lots of activities for my little ones. I felt very safe, they had a well run security procedure. No one was able to leave the area without a matching wristband to a parent. It made us feel at ease. My 2 oldest were able to run free. while I was able to stay with the little ones. It was an enjoyable experience. We are sure to return.
