KOOL PARK POOL,

3170 31st Ave Ct NE, Hickory, NC 28601, United States

"Wonderful place to stay cool. The remodeling is beautiful and the staff are wonderful. My scouts loved it, and a week later, my granddaughter and friend had a blast."

"Today I changed my review because the place is infested with wasps and I got stung and had to go to ER. It was so very painful and red welts appeared on my skin. I felt sick and confused. The owner must find a solution before someone dies. Once this is completed I will resume the 5 star review. Exterminators may have a solution. Previous review bf todays vist-The water park is a 5 star! There are 3 different level diving boards and the pool is 15ft on that end. It was fun to watch all the kids dive and do flips. I thought this is a great place for families to come. There are picnic tables and grill. They have food trucks on certain days. We went to the night session and it was perfect weather and min crowd. Nice and cool. Prices are very reasonable in comparison to other town waterparks. Even though I do not agree or think its fair for any adult chaperone to pay admission that is not going to be in the pools or slide, I was ok paying at this one because of the low rates. I have expressed to other parks that paper bracelets are an option to keep people from being dishonest bc not every chaperone will partake in the park activities. There were lifeguards and a police office for security. We didn't see thongs or bees! There are wood benches to sit on or place your things. The waterslide was fun. It's not super slick where you fly down it. There are different depths all over the pool and it is very large. Our kids wore water shoes and had no issues. Bring drinks and snacks or food of you are staying all day. The walk to your car is a very short if you need to keep a cooler in your car. Recommendations- drink and or snack machines on site or small concession stand, mirrors and papertowels in the bathroom. Lockers to place things such as wallets, jewelry cell phones etc..(not just for security for your items from people but also from water or moisture) we look forward to coming back! We drove about a half hour to get there and it was worth every minute!"

"Our 1st time visit was today The entry fee is $18 for anyone over 12 so the price isn't too bad It's a large pool There's some water slides, a few diving areas, a big kiddy play area, and large pool area. They also have a night swim too There's benches to lay out in the sun but fair warning their wooden, flat, and hard so it's not comfortable You're better off bringing a towel or beach chair They have picnic tables in lots of areas They play music and have a concession stand It's in a nice, quite, country setting It's a very nice establishment and definitely worth visiting this summer"

"First time there and it was absolutely amazing. A little on the expensive side but it's well worth it. The entire place is clean. The food was good. The lifeguards were attentive. Reminds me of a 1950's swim club lol. 4 diving boards, a long in ground water slide, small cliff to jump off of, picnic area with grills to use. Will definitely be going back!!!"

"We love this place. It is a little dated but considering it was built in 1935 it’s understandable. The pool itself is huge!! It’s got the water slide and several diving boards all different heights. You can bring a cooler in with you. It will be checked. I saw people bringing grills inside! It does have poison growing up the bathroom wall. I’ve read a lot of bad reviews and it’s like this. Every experience is going to be different. Honestly it is a little overpriced but to see the joy on the kids face,, it’s worth it. I been coming here since I was a kid and will continue to come back. I recommend stopping here for sure."
