“Local park is perfect for little kids.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2012

Over about 10 and your kids will probably be a little more bored. It's not a hundred slides, just a couple, but for the price, you get a wade pool, lazy river, and can bring your own food. Not too shabby, Round Rock Parks & Rec!

“Ick Factor too much”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed July 30, 2012

We went on a weekend, so that may be part of the reason we didn't like it too much. The park was at capacity when we got there so we had to wait in line to get in. Then once we did it was just gross. There were so many people you could barely do anything without getting run into or run over. The water was a murky grey color and smelled bad. My almost 2 year old had a pretty good time till he hit his head on a slide, and the lifeguards wouldn't let us go up on some of the slides with him to help him. We decided after an hour and a half it was not worth the money or our time to ever come back. Well at least we know now.

“Great for little kids”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 16, 2012

Great idea to beat the summer heat. Parents can sit under the umbrellas and watch their kids at both the in water playscape and the tube slides.

“Cool Pool but could use some tweeking...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed June 24, 2012

This pool is fun, for sure, but some of the rules aren't very family friendly. The big water sprinkler house in the middle of the pool, for example... only little kids are allowed on the structure... not even parents can get on to help the kids navigate the structure... DUMB... Also, the 'lazy river' has two sections where water sprinkles down on the floaters... my sensory-sensitive kiddo HATES it... I wish they would turn it for a half hour, for sensitive kids, then back on for another half hour for folks who love it... Over all a great place to cool off in the hot Texas sun, but could be a bit more welcoming for folks of ALL abilities and sensitivities.

“Can't Beat the Price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 19, 2012

This water park is just a community park pool so it's very affordable. It has a lazy river, zero entry pool, three story tube slides, and baby pool, and a splash climbing center. My kids love this place. However, I can see them outgrowing the place by the time they hit 13. It's definitely for the younger kids. Only down side is the snack selection is poor and there are no cooked foods, just prepackaged ones. So, pack a cooler with sandwiches.
