What People Are Saying About Wild Waves Theme Park

In Short – Chances are, you've never met a kid who wouldn't go crazy for water slides. Wild Waves has amusement park attractions such as a giant swinging pirate ship and a roller coaster--but the real draw is the wide selection of water-themed thrill rides. Multiple slides, a wave pool, inner tube river ride and small pool for kids help the entire family have fun. An arcade section with old-fashioned games like ring toss and balloon darts round out the park.

GREAT!
by pdxqueen at Citysearch
We got tickets on sale on their website so we saved about $10 each ticket. But parking does cost $10..so there goes that. The locker rental line was long, and we decided not to get a locker after seeing they cost $14!!!! Instead we put all things inside a waterbottle..which came down the rides with us and kept things dry!!! GREAT IDEA!!
We did the theme park rides first..big mistake because when we were done the water ride lines were huge. Tube rentals are expensive..but I'd rather rent one than stand in line for extensive hours.
The rides are great! And although the food is expensive it's pretty tasty! (bottle of water= $3.25 + tax. Pizza = $7.00 +tax for pepperoni. Soda is expensive..and snacks are as well). Next time I will bring a feast and leave it in the ice chest in my car..since there is re-entry!! And absolutely bring my own water.
I love this park and am going back before summers over. Theme parks cost a lot of money..but if you get a cheap ticket online, bring food and water and don't rent a locker you will save about $50! Hope this helped.
PS. No maps of the park were handed out..it would have been nice to have one.
AND if you rent a locker or tube you better get inside at opening because lines start forming very quickly and take too much time later on.
- Pros: Rides are great. Good Food! Can get cheap tickets online!
- Cons: Locker Rentals expensive, Tube rentals expensive, Long lines

Green water slides
by littlefawn16 at Citysearch
The green water slides are as old as the park, 1985 I think. I don't know about water slides and what they do to maintain them however on my last visit and visits before that I would get stuck on one of the slides. I was a season pass holder for a few years and noticed it then. I don't remember if it was the Rampage or Bonsai. When that happens I need to sit up push myself along until I get going again. I think that the green slides should be fixed or replaced.
- Pros: Hydro Slides, Lazy River, Zooma Falls
- Cons: Taste of food.
The Details on Wild Waves Theme Park
Look Good:
On cold days, warm up in one of the on-site hot tubs.
The Extras:
Ask about group discounts on tickets and about reserving the onsite picnic areas for large crowds.
Save Money:
Buy a season pass if you go often--it pays for yourself in just three visits.
Know Before You Go:
It's a good idea to wear aqua socks or some other water-friendly footwear--walking on asphalt can be tough on the feet, and you don't want to step in a stagnant puddle.
When to Go:
Watch out for crowds, especially on weekends. It's tough to get the whole family together during the week, but that's the best time to avoid lines.
