I would set up your home base by the kids section of the park. I guarantee that is where your kids will want to spend the most time. Long lounge chairs go fast, but they have tons of the short chairs. Unless you plan on lying out, you can just grab a few chairs to have somewhere to keep all your stuff and go back to when you break. It's a really fun park. My nephew and niece agree it's their favorite. My family has never rented a cabana, in our opinion it's a lot of money just to have that space. Most of the time you'll be in the water somewhere so why pay to have a chair? Make sure to do teamboat springs (the family raft ride), it is so fun. You can take the chair lift up to it.
