The waterpark was great for our kids. It’s really nice that it’s attached to the hotel. The park isn’t as extensive as a great wolf type hotel but was a fun stop while at Cedar point.

We had a lot of fun during our stay. Very kid oriented- which is exactly what we wanted. The lifeguard fist bumped my son every time he went to the water slide- my son thought it was so cool! He would keep my son at the top of the slide until I was able to make it make it to the bottom in time to catch him. That’s not typical of places so we truly appreciate the level of customer service and decency of the staff! My only negatives were that the entire building needed power washed (so many bugs/spiderwebs on the window) and more outdoor seating (went off season so it could be due to that).
