Noah’s Ark Water Park
With 41 waterslides, 2 wave pools, 2 endless rivers, 5 gift shops, 12 restaurants & outdoor lounges, 18 hole mini-golf, 3 arcades, and 1 incredible adventure, Noah’s Ark is definitely worthy of the title of “America’s Largest Water Park.” Furthermore, the park continuously adds rides and slides every year to keep everybody happy and coming back for more. Our family makes it to Noah’s Ark Water Park at least once every summer, and it is still a blast every time we go.
New to this Wisconsin Dells Water Parks in 2006 is the Time Warp, the world’s largest bowl ride. “Time Warp” is an enclosed ride and riders feel the effects of total drops of 70 feet and speeds of 30 mph. It’s unlike any other ride I have ever seen.
Some of the other more popular rides include Stingray, Point of No Return, Black Anaconda, and of course the Big Kahuna Wave Pool.
The water park is open from May 29 to September 6. Hours are subject to change without notice, but the park is open from 9 am until 8 pm for the most part. For more details on pricing and the 2006 summer schedule, check out the Noah’s Ark website.

Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park
The Wisconsin Dells water parks at Mt Olympus is in a complex called Neptune’s. Triton, five stories high, is the most first and most noticeable part of Neptune's. It is actually not in the outdoor water park complex, so take note of that. Triton consists of three different 5-story water rides, Triton’s Fury, Triton’s Rage, and Triton’s Challenge.
Needless to say, we tried them all on our adventure there. They are all family friendly rides. Triton’s Fury and Triton’s Rage are multi-person raft rides and allows an entire family to sit in one big tube and enjoy the ride down. Triton’s Challenge is a bit different in the respect that you go down the speed slide by yourself. However, there are six side by side lanes which allow you to race friends, family, strangers, etc.
Walking into Neptune's, The Tidal Wave, one of the Midwest’s largest wave pools, was the first thing we saw. After 10 minutes of wavy fun, we got out and moved onto some of the slides. Mt Olympus has 37 water slides too choose from. We tried the four magnum body slides the Wipe Out, Kamikaze, Corkscrew and Twister first, then did the double barrel tube slide, and finally it was onto Demon’s Drop and Dragon’s Tail.
I don’t know if we hit the right time, or if people were scared of the two single person speed slides, but there was no wait whatsoever. Demon’s Drop was first. It is said to be one of the world’s steepest and fastest water slides and I believe it. We found out that it's an 85-foot drop…straight down. The rush is incredible, but I do have one piece of advice, make sure your swimming suit is tied on tight. We then tried Dragon’s Tail, which wasn’t as drastic, but the 7-story double drop speed slide is nothing to sneeze at. And once again, tie those suits on tight.
After these two, we needed a little break so we floated around the Endless River. Although we were a little old for the kid areas, there are a lot of options for the younger crowd at this Wisconsin Dells water parks. There are two main water play areas for children, Huck’s Lagoon and Kiddie City, and if I was 10 years old again, this would a dream come true.

Riverview Park and Waterworld
The Riverview Park and Waterworld has a nice mix of water and amusement rides. Obviously, not as big as say Noah’s Ark, but that means it’s usually not as crowded. We went there last summer and only a short wait in line for rides. If you pay for an all day adult or kids pass you get the next day admission free. So if you have a lot of kids and plan on staying in the Dells for a couple of days, this is a steal.
Kalahari Resort
Although The Kalahari Resort is known for having “America’s largest indoor water park,“ the Zambezi Water Park is nothing to sneeze at.
The outdoor water park features 75,000 square feet of activities, including a "spin and flush" funnel ride called the Swahili Swirl, a lazy river, speed slides, a half-pipe flume ride, tube slides, a huge whirlpool, a sandy beach, and much more. Make sure the kids get to experience the Splashdown Safari which has multiple levels of water park fun and includes geysers, twisting slides, a giant bucket and many interactive features.

Great Wolf Lodge
Thunder Bay is the name of the 60,000 square foot outdoor water park at the Great Wolf Lodge. This outdoor water park is filled with slides and rides, including the Howling Wolf, two intertwining inner-tube slides, a large activity pool, lazy river, water basketball, whirlpools, and a children's play area.
Not quite as big as the indoor water park at the Great Wolf, but if the weather is nice and warm, it is a great place to soak up some rays and enjoy some family fun. Thunder Bay is only open during the summer months from 9 am to 8 pm.

Chula Vista Resort
The all new 120,000 square foot Adventure Lagoon at Chula Vista Resort should prove to be full of fun and excitement for children of all ages. The park features 12 water slides, an outdoor pool, whirlpools, activity pools, kiddie water play areas, and a sand play area. If you are a water slide extremist, try the 60 foot high Durango Drop.
Or if you feel like relaxing and enjoying a nice summer day, the outdoor water park has hundreds of lounge chairs waiting for you. Adjacent to the outdoor water park are the new challenging mini-golf, volleyball and basketball courts. The Cactus Bar and Grill and the pool side Desert Oasis are also there for snacks, sandwiches, and drinks.

Wilderness Resort

You have to check out the Gold Rush Tube Slide, a 400-foot tunnel slide that launches off of a 40-foot high enormous tower, you won’t be disappointed. There are also two other water slides, a 600-foot long lazy river, three pools with waterfalls, and Bear Foot Island and Toddler’s Cove for the youngsters to play in.
