To me, a great waterpark has to include 3 very important things...#1 it has to have a lazy river, a legit awesome lazy river that adult men like me can just float in for hours while the kids ride slides. #2 it has to have a wave pool, wave pools are a blast and they are as adventurous as I'll go in a waterpark. #3 finally it has to have a killer concession stand area or preferably a bar. Do any of the waterparks in the top 5 have these things? I don't know I have never been, but if they do I'll plan a trip asap!
