For the price, it was good. Its not a large water park, but if you’re local it’s a decent place to spend a late morning/ afternoon in the summer. The place is practically run by kids. Wish they had more security to protect against kids wandering off. But overall decent value.

This place is cool. We visited on a Monday and it was crowded. I can tell it would be crazy on the weekend. My son had a good time. The only thing is he's 3 and they won't let the parent go down the slides with the kids, so he was pretty limited.

A lot packed into one small park. Water slides for every age, two-person tube slides, mat racer slides, lazy river, kids splash playground, obstacle course, hot tubs, and more. Me and my son did the weekday warrior deal and it was well worth it. We did everything multiple times with minimal to no wait time. The floor of the water park is rough in a lot of spots and we wish there were more slides on the tower, but overall we love visiting here every summer. Also, use the Amusement park flat rate parking, or else you'll be paying a $50 parking ticket if your meter runs out.

This is such a great place for people of all ages. Friendly staff, attentive life guards and clean.

It was okay however it's not as good as it was when I was a child. Multiple slides not open, worn out paint everywhere. Much more expensive. If you didn't come a long time ago you wouldn't realize how down hill its gone though.

Had a wonderful time at Keansburg water park with my kids 8 and 10 years old. No reservations needed. It says till 5 pm but park opens till late time.

Lines were short. The staff were helpful and friendly. They had some good rides. Will definitely come back and I definitely recommend.

Great spot for a day outing. Decent amount of water rides to enjoy...the food is good. One can choose to go early and stay until 4pm or come in for the evening hours of 4 to 6pm. The 4pm segment is a much cheaper alternative and one would still be able.to experience all the rides and water fun. Once done you can walk across the street to the Keansburg Amusement Park.

Had a wonderful time at Keansburg water park with my son. I ended up choosing this place because reservation was not needed which gave it a big +. Got here at 9:45am , the water park didn’t open until close to 11. Lines were short. The staff were helpful and friendly. They had some good rides and most of all my son enjoyed himself. Will definitely come back and I definitely recommend.

Update 7/2022

Went back again and I had a great experience. One thing I realized this time around, it’s mainly for the kids. You’ll have fun as an adult but the kids will enjoy it much more.
