The Coolest Place: Pocahontas State Park

We have been talking about going to Pocahontas State Park for a while to check it out. It is relatively close (15 - 20 min) and Jon kept hearing about their water park. They are a very well kept secret and don't even have a picture of their water park on their website. Well it was awesome!
We went on Sunday morning, hoping to get in a few water hours before the "big storm" was supposed to hit. That made it even more perfect as it wasn't crowded.

This "playground" area was great. Lots of valves, buckets, tunnels, rope pulls and slides.
Charlie loved the slides! They also had 2 big slides. He went down once and wanted to go back, but we just ran out of time. They also had a 1 ft wading pool, a 3 ft pool and a 5 ft pool. All staffed by lots of life guards.


Both Charlie & Jon had fun going to the slide. I got one ride in and busted my butt!






Sorry this is sideways... I can never figure out how to rotate videos. UGH don't take videos sideways!
