This is a bold statement but I stand by it: water slides are one of humankind’s most brilliant contributions.
They’re the most fun. And, lucky for all of us, the technological advancements of water slides (or, hydrated gravity propelled downward exhilaration units) are only getting better.
The best improvement? Moving the party indoors! Someone recognized that the only way to put a damper on a day at the water park is to let the weather get in the way. With an indoor waterpark, the only chance of a downside is a wait to get down-the-slide.
Here’s a roundup of the top 5 best indoor waterparks in the US.
Wilderness Resort
(Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin)
Wisconsin Dells is proud to be known as the “Waterpark Capital of the World.” This popular spot is home to more waterparks per capita than any other place on earth. Among these, the Wilderness Resort stands out with its four indoor waterparks spanning a total area exceeding 250,000 square feet (almost 5 football fields)!
Attractions that make a splash:
- Klondike Kavern’s Hurricane: a high-speed, multi-person raft ride through a winding funnel before being released into a splashy finish
- Thunder Falls in the Wild West Waterpark: A daring drop slide perfect for adrenaline seekers
Great Wolf Lodge

The Great Wolf Lodge is more than just a waterpark adventure; it feels like entering a whole new realm of wilderness-inspired fun. Every site features its own animal theme and exclusive attractions, guaranteeing that each trip is a fun and fresh experience.
Water Wonderland:

Grand Country
(Branson, Missouri)
Branson, Missouri is actually known as the “Live Music Show Capital of the World,” which is pretty cool…but it would be even cooler if that live music was being performed at indoor waterparks in the US. While not the biggest around, the indoor waterpark, Grand Country, offers 40,000 square feet of excitement with slides, lazy rivers, and wave pools, brimming with charm and enjoyment.
Soak up the fun:
