Typical waterpark. It's loud, it's busy, but the park is clean, staff watch for problems, it's organized. The temp is perfect, lots of places to sit. Lockers are available for a moderate price. Food is pricey, but standard for destination food fare. The towels are plentiful. Attached arcade is typical and clean, fun for all ages. Lazy river is fun, as is mat racer. Kids area is safe, and large. Teens will like the larger slides. Change rooms are messy and I blame both staff and customers, a little effort from both would improve the cleanliness, mostly damp towels strewn about. Price is what it is, a park cost money in labor, utilities, so it's expensive. We appreciate that, unlike great wolf lodge, day passes are available to all. Disregard the poor reviews from March break, u get large crowd's on spring break, even at a dollar store, get over it and plan to wait. If you are within 2-3 hours of this place, it's worth the trip.

Great time for all!!! They have an area for little kids that don't want to or aren't ready for deeper water. Like a splash park with all kinds of stuff to play on. They have five large and really fast slides, two medium sized slides and one small slide. They have a pool with basketball nets. A couple other things to play on in the pool as well. There's one of those simulated waves you can surf on. A good sized arcade. A snack bar that sells adult beverages.

Everyone was friendly and helpful. Midweek wasn't the least crowded and the price wasn't extravagant either. Great section for smaller kids, with fountains and shallow pools to splash in. Lots for the big kids too. Four bigger slides, the surfing wave and a nice arcade.

Prices stated on the website are $10 more per person, every inch of the place is a rip off from $26 dollar pizza to $6-10 for a locker. Stay away from this milking operation, folks. Complete disregard for safety by barely teenage staff.

Is there an out door heated pool or hot tub at either resort... Boyne Mountain, Boyne Highlands or Avalanche Bay

Mellisa Lalonde | Mar 31, 2019
Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark (Owner) | Apr 1, 2019

Hi Melissa! Yes, Boyne Mountain and Boyne Highlands both have outdoor heated pools and hot tubs. If you are staying on property you will have access. Avalanche Bay is located at Boyne Mountain, thus if you are staying at the Mountain in our Clocktower or Mountain Grand Lodges, you will have access to those heated pool facilities!

Is there a splash and ski pass. All in one day? I’m interested for a family not staying on property. If so, how do I find info?

Brad Walker | Mar 31, 2019
Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark (Owner) | Apr 1, 2019

Hi Brad! We no longer sell one holistic package for both ski & splash - BUT you can absolutely do that! I would recommend booking a ski package and then adding on evening passes at the waterpark! The best way to save on your waterpark tickets is to buy them at least 21+ days in advance as that will save 25%. Here is a link to our upcoming ski package deals: https://www.boynemountain.com/packages-and-deals/plan-your-ski-trip Here is a link for our waterpark deals calendar: https://buy.avalanchebay.com/ecomm/shop/calendar/8720429/?productcategoryid=1029

Debra Friedman | Mar 31, 2019
Henri Charlebois | Apr 1, 2019

I'm pretty sure there's a label on the ski pass that says only for only one slope activities but if you already have a water park pass and you don't have it with you could show that to the desk employee they can easily search you up but you have to pay money on Friday and Saturday with the pass.

Hey is this place still closed? Wanting to go to indoor water park for spring break!

Logan Zieber | Mar 30, 2021
Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark (Owner) | Mar 31, 2021

Sadly Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark is still closed. Based on the emergency order issued by the MDHHS n March 2, 2021, waterpark attractions must remain closed until April 20, 2021 in an effort to curb the rising rate of COVID-19 infections in our state. Our current plan to re-open on April 23, 2021 is dependent on the extension of this current order.

If you spend the night do you have to pay for water park?

Christin Cabrera | Mar 30, 2021
Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark (Owner) | Mar 31, 2021

If you book on a Splash & Stay package, your waterpark access is included. If you book lodging only, then you can purchase passes for the sessions of your choosing. Thanks!

How much would it cost for me amd my fiancé to stay 1 night? It wouls be june 3-4. Im 21 and hes 23.

Britt Fowler | Mar 30, 2020
E Hilliard | Mar 31, 2020

I would call. Rates vary depending on weekend/weekday. If suggest giving them a call to get a proper quote. Honestly, I would buy the park passes for $36 each, and then stay at a super 8 or something. The rooms are beautiful, but I paid $600 for 2 nights (2 adults 2 children). Would go the day pass route if I do it again.

Can anyone from your facility return phone calls? I have left 3 messages with no response.

Corey Pfeiffer | Mar 31, 2019
Nicole Ryan | Apr 1, 2019

I dont work there but my guess is it is due to be it being "off season" so number of staff is decreased. Personally I find if a business has a twitter account they respond more timely so if they dont answer you here i would try that route. Good luck!
