Located on Long Island, New York, this Palace Entertainment owned property features a strong and deep water slide lineup with lots of great attractions. And the park also compliments the attractions with an abundance of shade, some theming, and great operations. Find out why this is the northeast's best outdoor water park!

    What a throwback. I used to go to Splish Splash all the time as a kid, before I became a lifeguard and water parks were ruined for me. A lot has changed over the decade. It was certainly a better place than Adventureland, or anything else Long Island had to offer.

    I used to work at Mountain Creek Waterpark, which used to be a Palace property, though not when I worked there. Have you ever been there? I noticed a few similarities to Splish Splash in this video.
    We had similarly good operations. We tried to hit the minimum interval whenever possible. It's incredibly frustrating at Six Flags waterparks how slow they are. They won't even let you load until the previous rider is completely out of the pool, and they usually send multi-slide complexes one at a time, defeating their purpose. It's nice to see that other waterparks do a better job.
    The shade is very important, and we were also lucky enough to have that. Not only was it better for guests, but it was also easier to work there.
    I rarely visit waterparks because I am usually by myself and can't go on a bunch of the rides that don't allow single riders. Do you just ask random people to pair up with you? At Mountain Creek, most of the slides had only double tubes, but if you were a single rider, you just rode by yourself in the double tube, sitting in the rear position. The only slides that you couldn't go on as a single rider were the proslide tornado and family raft ride.
    If it was back in 2015 (my first year working at Mountain Creek), I would've argued that it was better than Splish Splash. However, I now think the opposite is true. Unfortunately, Mountain Creek has lost so many attractions since I worked there. Cannonball Falls, Tarzan Swing, Upper Cliff Jump, Rogue River, Thunder Falls, River Runner, and Junior Rapids were either shut down by the State of New Jersey or are otherwise no longer listed on the park's website, and they lost their proslide tornado called High Anxiety to a fire and didn't replace it.

    I live here at Long Island, pretty close to Splish Splash too it’s only a 10 minute drive there. I go there once a week every summer with a few friends and it’s very fun, our favorite ride is the Alien Invasion. I’ve been on Dr Von Dark as well a few times and it’s pretty fun, and haven’t had any problems luckily so perhaps ours over here might have been improved. Unfortunately last week there was a thunderstorm and it hit Bootleggers Run so the ride was closed when I went there. I hope it reopens, it’s the only ride I’ve never been on and now want to try after seeing the replays of it.
