"I’m not sure why there were any bad reviews about this place to begin with.. this place is magical, a little slice paradise. My mom and I came yesterday on a Tuesday and we had the most relaxing afternoon. We spent about 4 hours here and it was so hard to leave. The owner of that place greeted us and was very nice and helpful with all of our questions. People were saying in the reviews with how expensive this place was?? I didn’t think so. $20 to enter somebody else’s property and swim all day and do whatever you want with no rules seemed like a fair price. The owner offered us a blow up mattr"
