Grand Bear Falls Waterpark, Oglesby

At Grand Bear Falls Waterpark, the 24,000 square feet of slides, pools, and play areas stay at perfect swimsuit weather year-round. Aqua-based amusements for all ages are spread around the park, which was renovated in 2018. A beach-like atmosphere is provided by the lazy river and wade pools while water slides encourage a walk (or slide) on the wild side. Lifeguards are stationed around the venue while the wave pool, tube slide, body slide, and dumping bucket operate to ensure safety for all swimmers. Should families work up an appetite, the Wave Cave offers concessions like soft pretzels, hot dogs nachos, and adult beverages.
