This is our second time here. First time was 5/5- workers were great, check in easy. Today was exact opposite. Check in was a nightmare. Only one worker checking in. Absolutely no organization. When second desk opened, they allowed other guests just cut in front of all of us that had been waiting well over 20 min. When someone tried to correct it, we were told too bad so sad. My kids love the park. And the slides are great. But just a cluster truck for check in and seating.

Great place decent choices of water slides and related. Far better then great Wolfe lodge in my opinion as far as water park goes the location is the only downfall I believe being its hour from Traverse City which would honestly bring it way more business if there or even 30 min closer . But overall well worth it. Cheaper also

I want to leave less stars but my kids had a good time. It was $246 for two kids 47" and two adults. The kids could only go on 2 slides and the Mat thing. It's more than full cedar point prices, just wild they charge this . There was a lazy river they liked thankfully. So overcrowded. 3 chicken tenders = $15😳. OK. Enough said. Even the girl charging us apologized as soon as she handed me the dish 😅. $7.50 pet slice of pizza also. The staff was so nice though, very respectful.

We had a blast celebrating our sons birthday here! The avalanche did not go off once on this trip, though. Usually, it pours down; we spent the entire day and were a bit disappointed that it didn't happen. Of course, they all had a great time anyway. We had cheese bread and pizza for lunch, and both were good.

I’ve heard this is currently the largest indoor waterpark in Michigan. To me if felt the same as Zehnder’s Splash Village in Frankenmunth, however Avalanche Bay feels managed more efficiently and uses space better. I think they both have the same count of slides. The changing rooms here were much better and more spacious compared to Zhenders. The key difference to me is that you don’t have to wait as long for anything. Hands down the infrastructure is just better. Zhender’s has more people that go, I assume because of its proximity to the Detroit metro area. We visited Avalanche Bay during Michigan’s mid-winter break and I think the 3.5hr drive was worth it. Wishin the first hour alone we experienced more attractions than all day a Zhender’s. Two things really stood out to me and they were the surf current and kids/adult play structure. The surf current was so much fun and the staff was very helpful. The play structure with 2 slides was a lot of fun. Everything is adult friendly too as the slides were rapid and the water was warm. A small warning, this is the wettest play structure I have ever been too. So much water is squirting or falling from somewhere. Whereas places like Zhender’s you can safely navigate with your kids with getting only marginally wet. In short it is a lot of fun. I highly recommend this place as the quality is high and the property has many other offerings.
