Indoor Water Park


At Massannutten Resort they had a huge, 86 degree water park.  We purchased a 3 day pass and had the best time.  We went all 3 days and really got our money worth.  They had a kiddie pool, a wave pool, a swimming pool and warm water pool (bath water temperature) and huge hot tub, 3 inner tube slides, 9  huge water slides, a huge water structure with hoses and sprinklers and water play structures everywhere, a generated boogie board section and a lazy river among a few other things I'm forgetting.

It was a lot of fun and really sucked the energy out of all the kids.

Joey loved it!

Mikey is a total fish in the water.

Joey even went down the slide.


Erica and Joey.

Joey just loved the lazy river.  He was practically in a coma state of mind and completely relaxed while just floating around and around again and again and again and again and again.

Mikey and Katie liked the lazy river too with tunnels to go under and water falls to go under or try and escape from.


Taking a little snack break.

Katie baby fell asleep.

Exhausted at 5pm.

He makes a little splash.

Update:  I forgot to mention that Katie went down this water slide too.  The big red one you see in the pictures above and below.  Yup.  She is completely fearless which can be good but is bad too.  Once she saw Mikey go down she wanted to go down so I went down first while Jamie stayed at the top with Katie.  The water slide attendant told Jamie and Katie when she could go down and Jamie said she sat down and pushed herself off at the top with no hesitation and I was at the bottom to get her.  When she came out the bottom she was on her belly face first.  We got a laugh out of it because somewhere along the water slide she must have had a wipe out because to go down the slide you have to be sitting with your feet in front of you.  She loved it and wanted to go again. I told her once was enough!  She is such a stinker!
I got to go down the water slides too!

Even 10 year old Bryan was worn out.

My napping princess.

She was nice and cozy for 2.5 hours in the makeshift bed at the water park.

By the third day Mikey was really comfortable in the water.  He decided to go down one of the large water slides.  He had to ride by himself; their rules.  He also was swimming by himself in the pool.  Held his breath, head in the water, kicking his arms and legs for 5 to 10 seconds at a time and swimming about 10 feet to get to me.  So proud of him.  He was proud too!
