This was our second trip and it was just as good as the first. We hit it on Monday and Tuesday after Veteran's Day. Crowds weren't too bad.
We really love the rooms. They're bigger than the Grand Californian, but have the same woodsy feel. With the pullout couch, we don't have to get out the air mattress for our son.
As far as food goes, this place is self contained. They have an excellent sit-down restaurant with lots of gluten free options for those who need it. They have a donuts shop/breakfast area for the mornings. They have an icecream parlor, though you feel so cold after the slides, I'm not sure you'd ever need it. And they have Hungy-Like-A-Wolf Pizza which is excellent - really!!!
As for the water park, it's so awesome! Not only will you're kids love it, but you'll love it, too.
Lazy River
Mat Racers
Super fun wave pool
Fort McKenzie is mostly for kids, but it does have some fun waterslides at the top.
They have a fun waverider which usually has the longest lines of the park. Lots of fun!
Overall, this is a great place. The one thing I wish they had was a giant hot tub to warm up in during the winter months. Other than that, this place really is a perfect place for a 2-3 night getaway.
