I dont know what to say about this place except its amazing. My boys really enjoyed themselves. I enjoyed myself. It wasnt too many people here. They have simple, easy to handle food. It is very family oriented. We just really enjoyed ourselves today. It is probably the best day Ive had in a really long time. We will definitely be back.

Great pool with very broad zero-depth entry area which allowed me to splash with my 1 year old while watching 5 year old play and jump a little deeper. Multiple fun sprayers to check out in addition to splash pad area with slide (which was great because my 5 year old was too small for the big waterslides but went down this one over and over happily!) and a sand area that could entertain for hours.

Me and my siblings surely had a great time swimming and going down the water slides. The water was fairly warm, too. Its a fun place to be during the summer especially on hot and sunny days. FYI, its best to go after 4 PM when admissions cheaper and theres less people.

This preserve is on the former estate of Brook McCormick and is adjacent to his uncles estate, Cantigny. The natural areas offer nature-lovers (Im a birder and nature photographer) a variety of opportunities. However, Mr. McCormick was an equestrian, so a number of building and statues of horses are at the preserve. The preserve is well worth a visit.

My kids love to swim so they, of course, had a great time. In the past we would bring in snacks to enjoy while we were there, but when we went an employee asked to check our bags and told us outside food was not allowed. That was the only downside.

The park overall is a good park. They definitely need to keep the urinals clean in the locker room. You can smell the scent of urine when you first walk in. I want take away that its nice and big. The water park is really nice for kids, but I seen adults having more fun than kids. The thing that I really dont like if a child is a little under 48 they cant do the slides. You all should change that as long as they slide with somone over 48 or an adult. My 5 year old granddaughter was really upset. She cant help God made her short.

I really like this place. Its a great little neighborhood water park. They have everything you need for fun on a hot summer day. They have one inner tube slide (single & double) two body slides and two high drop slides. They also added a rock climbing feature in the deep pool. There is a toddler pool and a wade pool with two lap lanes. A food court lots of green space and a sand volleyball court round out the space. They also have special swimming events like movie night and night time swimming and offer birthday party packages.

Pool area etc we like and enjoy as family.Last year they allowed snacks so I packed some. After rude cashier!( how hard is to say THANK YOU and PLEASE to paying customers? )Second person gives you your wrist bands asks to check my bags of course i am happy to open it and show. She sees the snacks and says its not allowed. I was like ok sorry last year we brought some so my bad. Can I go in leave my two small children with a friendInside? I will take the snacks leave them in my car after. She says no. Seriously you expect me to walk back to the car two bags and two small children??? Where is the common sense in this? Clearly person too young to have kids of her own! So I left the snacks with her which were like couple of gold fish and two chips said she can have them!Very disappointed other then that it was a week day so not over crowded, restaurant was nice. Kids really enjoyed the time.

Been going to Phillips Park pool for years. Conveniently located. Not a full water park, but a little more than just a pool. There are also a couple water slides, some plunge drops, rock climbing wall in the water, etc.

Beautiful facility, great pool. Kids had a blast there. Its a great place to bring your kids in the summertime to cool down a bit.

Review №29

This place is an incredibly inexpensive place to go to with your friends, and its conveniently located! The only thing that I don’t enjoy is how dirty the bottom of the pools are, and how sometimes the lifeguards lose there temper easily. The food there tastes like basic cafeteria food from a school, but other than that it’s a GREAT place to go to!

Pool is never cleaned. Kids are in charge so rules arent enforced with any consistency. If you dont get there shortly after it opens, good luck getting a chair. Lots of room for improvement

Great place for children to enjoy themselves, just wish got more waterslides.

Review №42

This is a nice clean pool with a great separated small kids area. What I don’t understand is why there are no lounge chairs allowed in this area. Parents are not allowed to be comfortable while watching their kids play?? Only upright low chairs are available, it makes no sense.

Updates are needed but still has charm, visit with your family and the little kids will enjoy their time there. #waterfun

Review №45

Larger waterpark fun for smaller waterpark money. Love the multiple slides and sand area. Practically no wait to go down slides. Only con is they are strict about the 48 in size minimum for the slides even when going down with an adult in a tube so if the kids arent big enough to go down them might not be as fun for them

Me

Bathing suits need to be enforced and thongs should not be allowed. This is a family pool. Disappointed.

Place is inexpensive but has enough to keep the family entertained for a couple hours, food isnt great but it is edible and not the main attraction anyways. The kid area is small but its great for small kids

Phillips Park is a more calm, but still a fun environment for.kids and adults. Some places are too stressful, but here you either know that your kid is in the sand, on a slide, or in the pool that slowly drops down. The lifeguards there are amazing. They are always focused on what they are doing.

Review №64

The life guards need to be more consistent.... My son and I went on the waterslides for 2hrs with different lifeguards at each station. After 2hrs and going all summer we were told hes to short and that his hair makes him look tall enough. I just took him for his kindergarten check up and he is over 48in dont feed me some BS that his hair makes him talk enough.

Review №67

Lucky of all 4 slides are working...the lifeguards never monitor the tubes so your stuck waiting in line while the same 10 kids use the only 10 tubes for hours...others judt standing there guarding their tune with their life lol.. I asked the lifeguard if they had some sort of system and if they are supposed to put tube back once they ride, and get back to end of line. He said yes and then stood there while this continued. We gave up and didnt get to ride the slides. The pool is ok but its primarily a kids pool. It looks like theres roped off areas for laps but people were hanging out there so that couldnt be done either. Was nice to relax in the shallow end.. but that was only fun for so long. Seems as if they need some structure and it could be better. Good snacks.

If youre just looking for a pool and a couple slides, this place has it. But unfortunately there is no lazy River and the pool gets a little crowded.

This water park has gone down hill. Dirty people swearing acting ignorant staff doesnt seem to care or bother to do anything about it. I went with 2 other families this week and non of us will ever go back! Its a real shame because this place used to be great
