Decent, but can improve.

Wild Waves Theme Park. It's a decent park with some good things, and some bad things about it. What I like is that it is great for the family, everyone can enjoy every ride. Some things aren't that great though, or could need some improvement. There is like very little scenery in the park, just basic grass, sidewalk, and fence. Also the prices for everything is rediculous. The food stalls are the major price consumers. But you can fix that for your own benefit with this tip: • Bring a cooler with food and drinks. Don't bring it in the park, but keep it in your car. So when your hungry, just get a hand stamp, and grab a bite from your car. Solves your food problems. :P The rides there are indeed fun for the most part. Wild Thing, although cheesy, but you get to ride it twice. That feature doesn't happen in any other park in the U.S for a roller coaster with at least 3 inversions. Also, TimberHawk, very smooth ride. The lines for the ride usually aren't long at all, maybe a 5 minute wait at most. Other rides like Timber Axe, Klondike Gold Rusher, Octopus, are great additions to the park for your enjoyment. The people,in my opinion seem to not really care about others. I haven't really talked to many people there, since they are either 'busy' or I'm having fun on some rides. When you are in a line for a ride, take a chance to look at their faces. You can see that most of them just seem to be bored out of their minds. It may be because they must yell out the rules and policy for every ride. I rated Wild Waves a 3 for the main idea that this is a decent park. I can see a great future in busness for them if they can render some more benefits of the customers, so they can come back, instead of only once a year. --PurpleDuck--

It's a slippery slope to watery exhilaration at this fun factory.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

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.
