Man, it has been hot in Chicago this week. One of the places we love to take the kids is Raging Waves here in Yorkville, IL. Over the last couple of years, you may have seen some of the many photos that we have taken while having fun there. There is something for everyone at Raging Waves. Over 45 acres, you will find Koala Cave for the younger crew, Kangaroo Falls for the older ones, and all the slides for the teens, tweens, and adults. They also have a Lazy River and Wave Pool and a huge area where the kids can play in the sand! I love that their prices are very reasonable too. Several years ago, I packed clothes for everyone but myself to change into afterwards. Awkward, let me tell you. I was able to buy a souvenir shirt for $10. $10, that's it! My mistakes wasn't an expensive one, and I got a great keepsake that I still wear! I also love that they add new things every single year! Wonambi is their new slide this year!
If you have a food allergy or a kid with one, they are so willing to work with you. I highly, highly recommend calling beforehand and letting them know. They can and will tell you what you can/can't have and are more than accommodating.
You know how clean Disney parks are? Well, I would rank Raging Waves up there for cleanliness. You constantly have employees sweeping and picking things up. It's actually quite impressive with the amount of people there!
There is always tons of shows and special events there too! You can even do a birthday party there!
Since we love this place so much, I have arranged for my readers to get$5 Off General Admission Tickets! Just useRAMBLINGS16when you purchase your tickets online.
What is your most favorite thing about Raging Waves? Will we see you there this summer?
That sounds like a great place to hang with the family. There really is nothing like a water park for great summer fun.
Oh my gosh, my grandkids would have an absolute blast there. I’m sure I would as well because I’m a big kid at heart. The savings would be worth trying it out for anyone in the area.
We actually live within driving distance of Chicago now. I hope to visit sometime this summer or fall.
That looks like such a fun place to visit, glad you were able to go!
We usually go there at least once during the summer. My kids are huge fans of water parks, and there is always something fun to do there.
This water park looks super fun! I would like to bring my family. My girls will have a blast there.
This looks like so much fun to go to with the kids! All three of my kids love waterparks and the water slides.
That looks like a great place to go. My family would love it there. We always enjoy going to waterparks.
Raging waves sounds like a blast. I love a good summer spot everyone enjoys.
We love to go to places like this. It is a great way to stay cool in the heat.
This sounds like a great water park for sure. Kangaroo Falls sounds like fun and it is awesome they add something every year too. Thanks for sharing your experience.
What a fun place for the summer! I WOULD BE THERE all the time if I could!
What an awesome discount! Thank you – this place looks so cool. The kids will have a blast there in the water.
This sounds like a perfect way to spend a day out. I want to go to a waterpark with my boys this year too. We don’t have a raging waves in our area.
Wow, this looks and sounds so nice. We have a couple water parks in the area but I think they pale in comparison. I love that they are so accommodating, work with you on food allergies, and they work so hard to keep the park so clean. Thank you for sharing!!!
I love finding a great waterpark, especially a super clean one. Our local one is very clean and nice.
I love a good water park and that one looks awesome!! I need to go to the park near my house soon!!
It’s awesome when parks really take cleanlinees seriously. This looks like a great place to take the family.
I have never been to Raging Waves but it sounds like fun. I will have to add it to our travel bucket list. – Yolonda
