Indoor Water Park near Dallas Texas?
So you are going to Grapevine Tx, right outside of Dallas where it is known to be really hot for most of the year. Why would you want to go to a resort with an Indoor Water Park? There are a number of reasons to consider an Indoor Facility. On really hot days, you might just want some shade and get out of the heat of the sun for a while. What if a big storm rolls through, your kids will be thrilled that they still get to frolic and play in the water even when it is bad weather outside. If you have not been to Grapevine in the Winter, you might be surprised at just how chilly it can be. Over the past years, they have actually been hit with a number of ice storms.

Slides for All
Since you have a limited amount of space in any Indoor Water Park, a great way to pack more in is to take some of the rides outside. What I mean is, some of the Large Water Slides are so big that they would take up all of the space if they were completely housed in the enclosure so a way around this is to enclose the slide and put the main part outside. This allows you to start and finish inside but most of your slippery adventure takes you outside of the walls of this massive building. Enjoy 4 large Water Slides for the bigger kids and adults as well as Smaller Slides in the Kids Area.
