Hurricane Harbor Chicago

"We thought it was a fun time to spend a hot day. However, the prices for tickets, food ($18 for a slice of pizza lol and it doesn't get better) , parking ($40), "VIP" seats/umbrellas/cabanas ($45-$150)and lockers($15-$30) are exorbitant and not worth coming back. The smells of sewage and dirty backwash water in some places like the entrance to the lazy river and entrance to the wave pool are nauseating. We went on a relatively slow day so wait times for water rides weren't too bad but they only let you ride the lazy river once on a tube - defeating the purpose entirely. You can walk it as long as you Ike, though. The wave pool free seating was completely full all day and they didn't open the "vip" seats up even though they were pretty much the same seats for at least $45. We found plenty free seats elsewhere. We felt the place was clean otherwise and we ended up having a nice time because we didn't buy any food, upgraded seats or products. I can't imagine what a family of 6 would spend here in a day. The business model here is very skewed bit as long as people keep coming here and paying $25 for a locker, $25 for a plain cheeseburger and $40 to put their car on a piece of concrete, this place will keep chugging along."

"Update. Great experience once in the park. Was two starts but updated to four. Slides are amazing, well staffed, and lines move fast, even food lines. Six flags st louis needs to take notes, a lot of notes! Would make 5 stars if they hadn't opened late. Security people seemed to be standing around until they realized it was 11:15 and park was advertised being open at 11am Overall, good experience"

"Children with height 48 can play many items. The map shows specific height requirements. The park isn't as big as a playground, but it's plenty entertaining. There is no need to worry about eating and drinking in the park. Water glasses bought by the season pass can also be used here. But not at the popcorn water park. Can only be purchased at amusement parks. Sun protection is very important. It's really sunburnt. Please be sure to wear tight swimsuits, trunks. I saw some boys 'trunks wash off while surfing."

"We would probably go to different water parks if we didn’t have the season passes. It is super crowded and some of the rides were closed. My kids were disappointed to see their favorite Wahoo Raver was closed and will not open for the entire season. They don’t update this info online or in APP. The lockers will not take Apple Pay. The best part to me is the staff working at the skull island. They were doing a great job regulating the slides for all the kids/families. Thank you!"

"Not classy. Rude visitors. Parking was $40.00 and not refundable due to a rain day. The attendants were kind but overwhelmed."
