Seven Peaks

I have only been to Seven Peaks Water Park once. I was about 12 and I went with my friend Bree. Lindsay and Zane both got free passes from their school, Gavin is still free until his birthday (even though he looks likes he should have been paying for a pass for a couple of years, since he's such a big kid!), and I found some cheap passes online for me and Dan. Lindsay's and Zane's passes expired on June 26 and we could only use them Monday-Thursday (stupid stipulations!). Since June weather was more like April weather, we waited to go until it warmed up which happened to be the week right before they expired. Everyone else had the same idea. That place was packed! It took forever just to get into the park, then the lines took forever to rent tubes and lockers. AND although it was pretty cheap for us all get in, they raked us over the coals once we got inside! We spent over $50 on renting tubes and snacks! Not lunch, SNACKS! They wouldn't let us bring our own food or water in. RAGE! Lindsay and Dan were able to get on one big waterslide, The Boomerang, before it got so crowded the lines to the water slides went all the way down the stairs and about 20 feet out from there. So we spent most of our time in the kiddy pool, lazy river and wave pool. Sooooo not worth it. And did I mention the bathroom only had 3 stalls? They are just asking people to pee in the pool! The kids still had fun though which I guess is what matters, but we decided they can have just as much fun at the local Rec Center. So I don't know that we'll be going there again for a very long time, if ever. I'd rather spend those $80 in DISNEYLAND! :)



Our good friends and neighbors came the same day we did so that made it fun for the kids.

Hahaha! This one makes me laugh! The sun was hurting their eyes so this was the best I could get! Zane, Gavin and Alex

I've never been there but it seems like more trouble than it's worth. We went to the Lindon Aquatic Center this summer which was so cheap and still so much fun!
