Last year, a brand new water park opened in Butte as part of a welcomed renovation and expansion of Stodden Park. After a successful first season, they’re gearing up to open again for summer 2019. And whether you have little ones in your life or you’re just a kid at heart, you’ll definitely want to check this place out.

Stodden Park recently wrapped up a renovation that included a million dollar destination playground.

The playground rivals all others in Montana, and it's just one of many new perks locals have to look forward to. A tennis court with working lights is another.
Of course, nothing has been more eagerly anticipated than Ridge Waters, Montana's newest water park.

When it opened last summer, attendance exceeded expectations substantially.
The biggest perks of the park are the two water slides, gusher jet, diving board, and Montana's longest lazy river.

This water park was several years in the making, and needless to say, the locals are thrilled.
