I have a lot of trouble ranking this place.  Though it is massive and has a ton of different "fun" things to do, it's kind of overrun with out of control children.  Also, it's outrageous to get into, ($15 unless you are a citizen of Maryland Heights...ridiculous!).

So, now to describe this fine water park of sorts.  Aquaport was the first of the big pool renovations in St. Louis.  Now, it seems every municipality has their own fancy pool.  Since Aquaport has been around the longest, they have some really different things.  Of course, they have the lazy river, which as I said is overrun with children.  Just try to relax in this thing.  I once even asked the lifeguard to please tell this incredibly obnoxious group of boys away from my friend and I, and he just stared at me like I had six heads.  Great job keeping those kids in control buddy.  They have some decent slides too, fast to slow and the lines are never that bad.  But the best part, they have the big toilet bowl.  Basically, jump in and start swirling around the tube like water in a toilet until it dumps you out the small hole in the bottom and shoot into the pool below.  Talk about water up your nose, but hey it's still pretty fun!

Generally, I like this place.  It's clean and it's well maintained.  I never feel gross getting in the water here, which is certainly a good sign.  However, between the out of control children, the lazy lifeguards and the high prices, I just don't go here all that often.  It simply is not worth it.
