If you’re looking for a spot to cool down and relax this summer, look no further than Greensboro, where you can float the day away on a calming lazy river that’s a thousand feet long. Locals who have season passes to Greensboro’s Wet n’ Wild Emerald Pointe know the lazy river is one of the best parts of this colossal water park. And soon, you will too.

Meandering along the Lazee River at Wet n' Wild is as easy as grabbing a tube (if you're lucky, you'll need a double tube), and then just siting back and relaxing while the world passes you by.

The slowly moving current will do the rest. The water park is a big place with lively activity, but the Lazee River is located in a quiet corner of this water park and perfect for getting away from all of the action.
If you're thinking Greensboro is a little far from where you are, then think again.

The park is centrally located in the Piedmont and next to some of the state's biggest interstate highways. It's easier than you'd think to get the Wet n' Wild; the hard part is when the day is over and you have to leave.
Wet n' Wild's Lazee River is always manned by staff so you can rest assured things will go smoothly.

You'll pass through some beautifully landscaped surroundings and slip in and out of areas designed to throw some much needed shade your way.
When you've whiled away a significant amount of time and are ready to rejoin the action at this adventure-packed water park, you won't have far to go.

Although the Lazee River feels a million miles away, in reality, it's only steps from all of the action found in the other attractions in this summer theme park.
As far as other attractions go, there is something for everyone in the family.
