Summer is upon us here in the Motor City, and warmer weather means one thing: it’s time to take advantage of Michigan’s many opportunities to cool off! While there’s nothing quite like a trip to one of our state’s Great Lakes, there’s something to be said for a chlorine-filled adventure at a water park. Luckily for us, there’s one delightful water park tucked away just outside Detroit — and you’ll certainly want to visit.
Red Oaks Waterpark is located at 1455 E 13 Mile Road in Madison Heights, approximately 20 minutes from downtown Detroit by car.
This waterpark might just be the perfect spot to spend a hot summer afternoon. No matter what your age, you’ll find something to enjoy at Red Oaks.
The park is overflowing with features: from waterslides to a wave pool, it’s nearly impossible to visit this summer attraction without having a total blast.
If you’re feeling adventurous, zoom down a slide or splash with loved ones in one of the park’s many swimming areas — this is the ideal place to let loose!
For those who prefer a calmer experience, never fear: Red Oaks also offers a wave pool and 990-foot lazy river where visitors can float peacefully along in inner tubes.
Younger visitors will enjoy the Spray and Play area, which is perfect for toddlers who want to feel the water but aren’t quite old enough to swim or slide.
Let yourself be drenched by tipping buckets of water, exciting jets, and all sorts of fun waterworks. You’ll feel like a kid again as you peruse this amazing park.
When you’re ready for a break, you don’t have to look far: Red Oaks even offers a picnic area for families who want to stop the splashing and enjoy a quick lunch.
No matter how many times you’ve visited, the endless fun that awaits at Red Oaks Waterpark will keep you coming back for more. Happy splashing!
