We visited on a Saturday afternoon and it was wonderful! We just did the $5 per person for the day. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We floated the down Shoal's Creek some and sat in the water and played. We had a great time. We found that earlier in the afternoon is less crowded on a Saturday. It started filling up really fast starting at around 4-4:30 for the dinner cookout crowd. Great little place to stop right off I-44 and relax for the day!
