Remember a couple of months ago how we were complaining how cold it was? Well summer is now in full swing in metro Detroit and things are really starting to heat up. Here are a couple of local waterparks/splash spots that will help you and your family beat the heat.
Red Oaks Water Park
The Madison Heights based waterpark features various pools and splash zones that kids and adults are sure to enjoy. For the kids, the park features the Terrific Tides wave action pool, a triple-fume waterslide, and a Soak Station that has over 60 features including water jets, slides, and a tipping water bucket. The park also has a Spray & Play station for toddlers which features different water jets and bubblers at zero depth.
The waterpark also features a 990-foot River Ride. Guests can walk laps around the moving river or relax in an inter-tube. Red Oaks also hosts a River Walk every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday this summer until August 19 from 7:30-8:30 p.m.
Waterford Oaks Water Park
Another Oakland County Park that features water park fun for the whole family is the Waterford Oaks Waterpark. The park features a tropical Wave Pool, a children’s playground complete with over 30 interactive activities, and the Ragin’ Rapids group raft ride. The 515 foot long slide takes riders through numerous drops and turns before reaching the splash down pool at the bottom.
Troy Family Aquatic Center
For families looking for a waterpark and other outdoor activities, the Troy Aquatic Center offers a little something for everyone. The waterpark is complete with water slides, a splash pad and zero depth entry pool for children, and lap lanes for more experienced swimmers.
