Even on a cloudy day, it was such a vibe! Everyone was so chill too and so understanding! I had multiple kiddos with me and they let me leave my cooler with them while I ran something back to the car and that means a lot to a mom who can’t just run to and from a car without having to haul a bunch of crap with. Super down to earth, all day! Got mega chilly so we hit the “warming pool” which, in my opinion should be bigger, but it’s helpful! 🌸🙏
We visited over the weekend and this place hasn’t changed at all in 20 years. It’s a ton of fun for not a ton of money. The rides are awesome and ride wait times aren’t to bad. We did get a bungalow so we would have a home base. The park does allow you to sit in the grass areas and picnic tables but it is first come first serve on open areas. If you want a cabana or bungalow you need to book in advance. One really cool thing is waterworld allows you to bring in your own food so if you are needing to budget/save money or have dietary restrictions this is a plus If you’re in a cabana or bungalow then you have the ability to order food directly to your area via their website/qr code. One pro tip - get to the park 20-30 minutes before they open to get parked and in line for the security. It can take 30-40 minutes to get in if you don’t arrive early.
We had a fun time at water world when we came. They had a variety of choices for food and the park has enough attractions for each of our sons, who are different ages. I wish I would have been more cleanly. The bathrooms by the surfing area smelled like pee and it was really disgusting when we had to pass by.
This is one of my absolute favorite places in the Denver area! The rides are fun, the staff is friendly while still keeping us safe, it has such a good local feel since it's run by the city and not like a Six Flags, and it's overall just a magical place. They have lovely gardens and plenty of restrooms. You can bring your own food (but not alcohol). The lines do get long nearly every day on warm days, and it can take a while to get in if you get there in the morning, but that's all just kind of just modern Denver. Make absolutely sure you're wearing sunscreen, and reapply several times if you're there all day! There's quite a range of fashion choices, if you're modest or nervous about sun feel free to cover up more, or if you want to go skimpier/thong-y that seems fine too. I haven't encountered any creepy bikini police scolding us about our bikini choices, so wear what you want. Overall it's absolutely worth going, and if you hate lines go early in the season on the coldest day you can stand. Consider getting there later and not spending the entire day there, if you stay all day you're going to get toasty anyway. Have fun!!
Found shade in shallow water. 98 degrees that day but able to park close to entrance, easy walk to find this fun activity; three fun slides for little ones. Even found a shaded picnic table. Perfect day, ty Waterworld, we will be back!
The responses from the park owner to these reviews is atrocious customer service and a very poor way to represent your own company. We went today and were incredibly disappointed. First of all, the park cleanliness was not great. The water was pretty dang cold. Lockers are small and expensive, everything is expensive. None of the refill station would let us fill water, they wanted us to pay for new waterbottles everytime. The whole park is pretty confusing unless you are a frequent attendee. No refunds, no convenience, no customer service, crap gift shop, expensive crappy food, no consistency between staff, website is misleading and terrible, no accountability. This place needs to be reported to the better business beuro for stealing from their customers. WATERWORLD, DO BETTER! Between the many negative Facebook reviews and the few on Google, your reputation is going down the toilet along with your park. Secondly, don't ask anyone for directions or help or where to purchase an item or check something. Its an inconvenience to them, they avoid looking at you, and just point in a direction saying over to the right or over that way. Last, I can NOT comprehend the rudeness, chaos, lack of signs and accurate information, making people wait in 90 minute line to borrow a tube for a slide. Carry that giant tube up the metal stairs by yourself. Stand in another 60 to 90 minute line for said slide. They take your tube at the end of the slide and you have to do it all over again. Wait in a line to go wait in a line. Also, you'll have to reserve cabanas/bungalow months in advance if you want one but from the comments i read its not worth it. Customer service is wretched. The park is massive and very few connecting paths, it's like walking through a maze. The wave pool last only a few minutes. The lazy river is super super short. You have to rent tube for the lazy river but can't use them ANYWHERE else and If you carry your tube for too long staff will stop you to reprimand you for carrying your tube around the park because apparently thats only allowed when they say it's ok to carry a massive 2 person tube up 5 flights of metal stairs. $25 for one towel at the gift shop. The changing rooms are saunas, they are very warm and it's hard to put a bathing suit on while you're sweating to death in a matter of 1 minute. The curtains for the changing stalls were ghetto and didnt cover the opening well. The locker set up is weird and kind of a pain. There were a lot of older people that couldn't understand how to reserve or use a locker and staff doesnt help with anything so they couldn't ask them. Nobody tells you any of these things. The staff seems to be incredibly unhappy with their job or there just rude as he'll. We planned this on our vacation with soooo much excitement. It was the worst experience we've had on any trip or theme/water park. Supposedly one of the best water parks in the nation, this is false. Im so so so sad by this experience. TOTAL AND UTTER WAIST OF TIME AND MONEY. Maybe Elitch Gardens is the better choice. If we come back that's were we will try next. The best part of the Waterpark was seeing a cute squirrel.
We had so much spending the day at water world! It was a fun way to beat the heat, however if you aren't bringing your own food and snacks, you'd better plan on spending a ton of cash! It's so expensive! The lines are definitely shorter on weekdays but you'll still stand in line for 90+ minutes for the bigger rides. We still had a blast though!
Beautiful grounds with plenty of attractions. Lots to do for little kids (3 to 6 year olds). Friendly and attentive lifeguards make a safe environment.

Beautiful sunny park that has it all. Tennis, disc golf, baseball, and a playground. Nice area to picnic. Overlooks Denver very scenic off the bat. Small pond with nice bridge. 18 holes of disc golf. Not very descriptive. Used a disc golf app like udisc to figure out. Still a nice park regardless.
I only have it 4 stars because many tee pads are still missing and signage hasn't yet appeared but the potential of that property is finally being explored and it is going to be great! New pin positions are challenging and fair. Keep it up!
Very challenging course. Needs more signage for visiting players. I had to ask other players where the tee and baskets were. Overall a great experience and definitely a work out. Lots of hills and terrain.
Very large course, that's a plus. But the third hole was a bit confusing and a grip of us ended up throwing in the wrong direction and lost a couple discs. Apparently some baskets are missing? We only got to hole 5 before the sun went down. Otherwise a pretty good time.
The course is incomplete due to construction and is unnecessarily difficult to find each new tee pad. The course is also awkward because of the many hills and tall brush. Wouldn't recommend, but I can see potential in the future if they decide to fix up the course a bit.
Excellent variety of challenging throws. Fun elevation changes, bring a map as the direction after each basket to the next tee is not clear.
Take my dog over there and we walk sniff around it's nice having the Wilderness in my own backyard
Interesting course, long drives, technical approaches. Poor "next hole" markers. Lots of fun. Very diverse.
