I'd heard good things about this place over the years - a private spring that allows you to bring alcohol and float down the river. How could you beat that? Unfortunately, it was a pretty bad experience. To start, the price is pretty high - $20 a person. For that kind of money I'd expect there'd be plenty of grills and picnic tables and clean restrooms. Nope. No picnic tables, grills, or anything in site anywhere. The place was so crowded, we were eventually able to find an area about 10'x10' where we could leave our coolers and bags with clothes, etc. but we had people right on top of us. The spring is relatively small, so it was essentially elbow to elbow. A lot of people had ridiculously large floats (like 10x10 that are designed to hold an entire family). The gigantic floats made it a challenge to do any swimming without being run into. Speaking of, the people on the floats were largely drunk and could not care less about running into you. I think I probably saw about 1500 people, and saw exactly 1 person wearing a mask. If you're concerned about social distancing, this is definitely NOT the place for you. Like I said, the spring is pretty small. The tubing run looks like it's actually a river that connects to the spring, but unlike other places I've been, the area where you tube is not spring water. It's regular river water (not transparent and not cold). The tubing was better because the river allowed more room for people to spread out. There was also a rope swing and several trees that people were jumping into the river from, and my family enjoyed that. The worst part for us was when we tried to leave. There is a "guard shack" type thing with a gate at the exit, and when you leave they collect the "tickets" that you got when you pay your admission. I guess this is to prevent you from giving your ticket to someone else after you leave. The problem is nobody tells you that you need to keep the tickets so when we got back to our car and threw our trash away, we threw the tickets away as well (because why not). The staff at the exit refused to let us exit the park without turning our tickets in. When we explained that we'd thrown them away they actually told us that we would need to go back and go through the garbage to find them in order to leave. Um, no...that's not happening. We had to speak to a supervisor, and even then we had to threaten to call law enforcement because they weren't going to let us leave. Eventually we just laid on the horn for about 30 seconds until they opened the gate and let us leave. If you don't care about social distancing, rude staff, overcrowding and hordes of drunk people then this place is for you. Will not be going back. …
