Bubbling Springs Park

I don't think I'd go out of my way to go to bubbling springs, but my mother-in-law happens to live a few minutes away, so we went twice. ;-) 15$ a person is not 'cheap' but thankfully there's a family pass for $25 that covered the 4 of us. No extra charge for parking. Plenty of lifeguards on duty, lots of camp kids on a weekday, we witnessed a "missing-camper"-drill which was interesting. Liked that it was a sand beach so our little one was very content with a bucket and a shovel - water depth: 1 yard in 1 foot deep, 2 yards in 2 feet deep and then deeper faster - this is my impression- only meant to help other parents. Other sides could be very different. Water was refreshing. I don't remember seeing any vegan options at the store - the mozzarella sticks tasted like my husband's childhood. 😆 I loved the convenience of it, not far to begin with, parking lot not far from the beach, a few picnic tables, plenty of shady areas, and a playground too.

Just went for the first time yesterday and it was actually surprisingly great. We were not expecting there to be as many life guards as was there and there are also grills to make your own food as well as the option to buy food and drinks and ice cream there. Water was clean and were fun slides and deck to jump from for the kids. Will definitely come back and recommend to others who live in the area to check out if they haven’t already. So much fun for the kids!

Great place to go with kids and have them play with others. Beach kept clean, very good lifeguards, swimming classes available, water green but everyone still a live without skin rashesafter soaking for 5 hr😊overall 5 stars! …

Absolutely loved it here! Perfect place to bring the family for a summer lake day! Very clean… picnic tables and grills.. reasonable concession stand and not crowded and the lifeguards are excellent…everyone had a blast!

Not a bad lake for a vacation with small children . Safe lake for swimming both adults and children . There is an opportunity to buy food, there are tables. There is no barbecue. Overall good - but too many rules.
