This place is absolutely crazy.  We went on a weekend in March, "Spring Break season" per the front desk.  Must be why we waited in line over a half hour to check in. It was sooo crowded, I think if I ever went back I would shoot for a weekday night.

It is fun, but pricey.  Our kids loved their "Wolf Den" room.   It had bunk beds and a separate TV just for them.  At $280 and up a night, it should be a nice room.  

The water park is really cool.  Waterslides galore, lazy river (not really very lazy on a crowded day), kids pool, adult pool too (I didn't get to check that out).  But, there is really no escape from the humid chlorine-infused air here, even in your room.  At some point it all began to feel a bit toxic, and I was ready to head home  for some peace and quiet.

This gets three stars from me because I've been to better water park hotels (i.e., the Wilderness in the Dells).   It's a nice hotel, the rooms are fine, the water park itself can be a bit small and crowded especially if there is rain and every one gets to go inside.   The dining leaves alot to be desired.   We ate here the first night and I wouldn't go back.  Who messes up a club sandwich?   They did.   You can find deals, so keep your eyes open.

A great place to water blast people you normally wouldn't with squirt guns (jk).  Whether you are 6 or an aspiring adult, this place makes for a good weekend to pretend you don't live in Kansas City.  Go to this lodge if you cannot afford Cancun, want to return to your youth, or want to go nuts in the indoor water park.  If you are 8, tell your parents that this place has hot tubs and a make believe river, and good pizza. Yaaay!

Wonderful location at Village West next to Cabela's and the Kansas Motor Speedway. The area now has a large promenade style mall called Legends with tons of restaurants and shopping. The hotel is a bit on the pricey side but there was just two of us. The hotel really supports families of 4, 6 or 8. They have an arcade much like you would see at Chucky Cheese, mini-golf, an interactive "Magicquest" but their best known for the indoor water park. A lazy river, a basketball pool, two hot tubs (one adults only), a kiddie area for the little ones, an outdoor pool and inside, 5 water slides-3 tubes and 2 none needed. It is a blast as the tubes make their way from inside to outside and back inside. A huge play area of water sprayers is topped with a huge bucket that dumps every 5 minutes. Lifevests are provided for small kids at no extra charge. The only thing is your waterpark pass-it must be worn at all times during your stay. You sleep in it because once you put it on, you cannot take it off or its $15 to replace. Did not venture into the restaurants on site because there are so many nearby to choose from. Overall, its a great time and would be perfect when swimming is no longer available outside
