I loved the location woukd recommend anyone going up to niagara falls for me it was right in the middle, and they have a ton of things to do. The bad i wish guests at the location can get a break at the water park or even a discount for kids and food at the location is slim....

We loved this place! We were a group of 8 people- 2 families. 5 adults two kids and one infant. The water park was small but so fun. No lines at all for the slides. The arcade was fun for the kids and we loved our room- the River Rock Suite. The first night we had dinner at the restaurant and had great service and the food was good. Service was great overall. We will definitely return!
