Do you remember that feeling, the one you got as a kid when it came time for summer vacation? Leaving school for the last time that year, ditching that heavy backpack, months of fun in the sun stretching as far as the eye could see. It was a feeling of freedom, wasn’t it? A feeling of potential. It was summer. There was fun to be had. Anything could happen. Capture that feeling, or at least a bit of it, again this summer with a visit to Waterways Waterpark in Julian, West Virginia.
Waterways Waterpark, located at 111 Waterway Road in Julian, West Virginia, is a family friendly park that has been serving up delightful summer fun to Boone County residents and visitors for years.
Featuring five waterslides, a lazy river, mini-golf, hiking trails, an amphitheater, picnic shelters, an athletic field, and more, Waterways is so much more than just a city pool.
And don't worry; in addition to everything we mentioned above, if you get hungry or thirsty, there's a concession stand. If you (or your kids or grandkids) are too little for the waterslides, there's a kiddie pool. If you're tired, there's a field for sunbathing. If you're chasing more memories of the summers of your youth, there's a souvenir shop.
To learn more about Waterways Waterpark, including when it opens and closes each year as well as its hours of operation and admission prices, visit this bougie city park and pool on Facebook or at its website. For some water fun that isn’t man made and is also not far from Waterways, try Drawdy Falls. If it’s raining, have some indoor fun at the Coal Heritage Museum. Happy summering!
