Summer is
the best time of year to get out and do fun activities with kids. While DCL
Adventures had several great options in Western Maryland (including Monkey Business
Adventure Park, and Deep Creek Axe Throwing, we opted for some fun in the sun
at their Splash Island location, housed at Will O’ the Wisp. What an incredibly
fun place!!!
Upon
arrival, the staff was very friendly in getting everyone checked in with the
online waiver system. They were patient and willing to answer questions as they
arose. Once we completed the waivers, we were pointed in the direction of the
life vests, and sent down to the lake. The activity was a surprise for my kids,
and when they walked down to the inflatable obstacle course, their eyes lit up!
Within seconds, we were in the water and climbing onto the obstacles. With over
20 different obstacles linked together, my boys were thoroughly entertained for
the entire hour time slot that we were signed up. They easily could have
played for another hour if we had the time. My youngest son even commented that "this is the best activity we did all summer!"
The
obstacles ranged in their level of difficulty, and my kids found the floating
bridges and the hamster wheel to be the most challenging. They also had
multiple life guards on duty, and when one of my boys got stuck they happily
jumped in and helped him get through the obstacle. They really enjoyed climbing
the tower and jumping off from near the top, as well as the large slide and the swing!
This is definitely a place we would come back to in the future, and we would
also definitely try their other activities. The ropes course looked like it
provided a variety of challenges as well.
Pricing: $30
