CAMELBACK MOUNTAIN INDOOR WATERPARK RESORT

From my previous blogs, you may have gotten to know that I enjoy going out and exploring new "kid friendly" locations. I usually tend to run out of ideas in the winter, because I do not enjoy being out in the cold. Last summer we visited Camelback Outdoor Waterpark and it was such a great experience. We did not did have to wait on long lines to go on rides and the price for food was reasonable. This first visit to Camelback, led me to book a weekend at the Indoor Waterpark. Previously, I had a bad experience with a nearby waterpark know as "CoCo Key". It was nothing that we expected. It was my son's 3rd birthday and trip was his birthday gift. All I remember was walking in and being drawn back by the smell of chlorine. I thought to myself, "ok, at least it's clean". But the smell was so strong that we did not get to enjoy ourselves. The location itself was small, and there weren't many option for the kids to choose from. At the end of the day, we felt sick. The rest of the time there we stayed in the hotel room or went out exploring the town.

Let's get back to Camelback. Our check in time was at 4pm, but we had access to the park at 12. Upon arrival at 11:45am we were told our room was ready. Great! We quickly got ready and headed down to the indoor waterpark. My kids were excited. The best part of our stay was the outdoor hot tub. Our least favorite part was the snow tubing. We were prepared with snow suits and all the gear possible, but we were still freezing. We went down the mountain once and quickly got back on the shuttle back to the hotel. I will definitely revisit this resort next winter!
