Splash in the ‘Boro

I never thought I’d see the day that we were booking it out of Savannah to spend a day in Statesboro :-)  We considered heading to Summer Waves in Jekyll for some fun in the sun, but decided at the eleventh hour to give Splash in the ‘Boro a whirl.  I’m SO glad that we did!  It’s an hour closer (about an hour from Savannah), cost half the price ($12 for above 48”, $10 for under and $6 for seniors), and was super clean and FUN!!

We arrived right at opening time and stayed for about five and a half hours.  Surprisingly, we probably spent half of the time in the lazy river.  An unexpected luxury for Mother and me!  There were also couple of large water play areas, a lily pad obstacle course, a huge mat slide, a raft slide and two body slides in addition to a pool with a diving board.

If you go…

  • You can bring in bottled water or clear containers with water.  I will say that they didn’t check our bag at all.
  • Get there early to stick your stuff on a chair in the shade.
  • You can purchase a little pouch to wear around your neck with your phone and cash for $5, if you don’t already have one.
  • Food is very reasonably priced – there are sandwiches, burgers and fries, ice cream, etc.  You can also get your hand stamped to re-enter should you choose to leave.
  • Parking is free.

We stopped at Sonic on our way back to Savannah for slushies and vanilla cokes.

With that, it’s time to get the littles to bed.  I think they’ll be out as soon as their heads hit the pillows!

Musings

There’s not much I love more than summer.  We’ve spent most of our days doing something that resembles this… friends, a pool, card games and maybe a cocktail here or there for the adults. Honey treated us to a yummy Waffle House style breakfast on his hibachi grill Sunday.  We lounge around in tailgate chairs… Read More
