HAOLE Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I am looking to take the family to an indoor water park this weekend. Where is the best for the money? Has anyone been to the coco keys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Great Wolf in Cincy FTW. Very family orientated, they even have "den" 2 story rooms with area for kids and adults ect. Tons of kid orientated activities, and very reasonably priced for what you get IMO. Also about the closest one that is decent. I've heard great things about Kalahari as well though.

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I've been to the Great Wolf Lodge, the one by Kings Island. If you have the cash to spend, it's a super nice place. The indoor park is really nice, the staff is cool, the rooms are nice, and the building itself is just really nice for a family weekend trip. They have 5 or more different styles of rooms depending on what your trip is for. Hope it helps, have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin5s Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Kalahari seriously, you can end the thread, Kalahari is BY FAR the best indoor park. My wife loves indoor water parks and has been to pretty much any park that is within a 12 hour drive of c-bus. I have been to Kalahari twice now. the rooms are nice and the park is HUGE.

Kalahari seems to come up as the nicest. It is also the priciest. They are about 240/night this weekend. I guess that is not bad considering that covers admission to the park too.

verse Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I've been to the one of Hamilton Rd. It's pretty fun. We didn't actually stay there, just were there for a Thanksgiving dinner buffet and water park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Coco keys sucks bad. Try the great wolf or ft rapids are much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Come down to Great Wolf, it's not far from my house. Never been in, but it looks impressive from the road. There's also a great side trip if your kids are into trains: http://www.entertrainmentjunction.com/ and remember...the wife will prolly have sex with you. makes any price a-ok I'd side with the one that makes her let me sleep.

Drewhop Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I have not been to CoCo Keys but I have heard a few good reviews about it from some of my customers. (They are poor people) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 A frined from work had a horrible experience with Coco Keys, to the point that the owner personally refunded his money. He said the park was ok, but the service and room was terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Anyone been over here to the one at Hamilton Rd and I-70? Doesn't look very big, and it seems odd to build it in a declining area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I worked on, great wolfs, coco keys, and ft rapids over on hamilton. I have been to them all. Ft rapids isnt the best but we have been there about 20 times and the kids enjoyed it. Coco keys was aweful. Great wolf is the best of the 3 but not so much so I would drive clear down there just for it. You could have fun spending a day in ft rapids if you had kids. Dont be an adult and think your going to go there by yourself and not be bored after a few hrs at most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowsnake Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 We,(wife,myself, daughter) went to coco keys last year and loved it. the rooms where pretty big. we stayed the night and did the park and are goin back for my daughters b-day in about a month.. Not a fan of Fort Rapids b/c of the area....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Kalahari is by far the best. One thing to remember about Sandusky there are 4 or 5 other indoor water parks to choose from. Kalahari Cedar points park great wolf Ramada inn small little shithole that isn't worth the time. also ranked them from best to worst.

TheHaze Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 A coworker of mine just came back from Kalahari about two weeks ago; he has not stopped talking about how amazing it is since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
integranator Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I'm actually looking to book kalahari for my gf's bday. Gonna get the family suite and pop about 8people in it.
