Mom Tips Before Heading to the Massanutten Outdoor Water Park

Pack light so you can fit everything inside of a locker easily.
Wearing pool shoes that can be indoor /outdoor is a great idea especially for children. The walkways can get kind of slippery, and the outdoor pavement gets HOT in the summer on feet.
Pack your waterproof phone case so you can snap photos without worrying about your phone getting wet! It’s also a great place to add a debit card or ID for drinks and food without having to make a run back to the locker.
Dress your children in neon bright bathing suits and swim shirts. Being able to spot them in lines and around the water park will save a lot of stress for parents trying to keep eyes on multiple children.
You will need to bring your own life jacket or floaty for non-swimmers!
The waterpark clears out in the late afternoon if you want to go at a less crowded time plan on staying until close!
