"We LOVE lagoon! We buy season passes every year. I love that my entire family ranging from 10 months-13 years old can enjoy our day. Food is good, it’s clean, and has plenty of shade for hotter days. We also love lagoon a beach! Especially now that the water is heated. Sometimes we take a break and swim and sometimes we come just to swim! Excited for this year!"
