Summer is not over yet! My family and I were invited for a day of play at Mountain Creek Waterpark Resort in Vernon, NJ.
Did you that Mountain Creek has activities that can take you through all of the seasons? It is 47 miles from the George Washington Bridge which makes it pretty convenient to head over for some outdoor fun!
Mountain Creek Waterpark has so Much to Offer
What I like most about our visit to Mountain Creek Waterpark is the laughs and smiles from all ages. Look at them laughing after going down the slide together in a two-person tube. The Vertigo and Vortex slides were two of our favorites.
Enjoy a Comfortable Cabana
I always love when places have fun props to take a photo with. To enjoy the day and keep our things all together, we enjoyed our time in a cabana. A great idea when you have a big group and need a home base. There are also lockers right next to the cabanas too in case you would like to lock up any valuables. We also had a wonderful waiter come to our cabana so that we could place an order. With waterpark lines for food being what they are, we were very happy to order.
While at the Wave Pool, my daughter headed over to the skis. As you can see, she is contemplating the next time she will be skiing down the mountain. Lol!
Wave Pools and Slides
The High Tide Wave Pool is definitely an intense one. Be prepared for younger ones to wear life vests and stronger swimmers to enjoy riding the wave.
Although not allowed on some rides, water shoes or some type of footwear is necessary for walking around on the terrain. There is a lot of area to cover to enjoy all the water fun so you definitely need some type of shoe to make it around the park. For rides that you are not able to keep your water shoes on, they have an area that you can leave them.
Bombs Away is the perfect name for the slide. A far climb up the mountain but well worth the ride down. She went on three times before venturing to another part of the park.
Mountain Creek Waterpark is built into nature. Some of the pathways are rock and definitely be on the lookout to see where you are stepping.
We did our best to enjoy as much as we could before a thunderstorm rolled in. Although it is close, after a day at the park, it was great to stay at The Appalachian at Mountain Creek. We enjoyed our evening in the spacious suite and with the storm brewing, we even turned on the fireplace to give the feel of cooler times ahead. We could see how this room would be a great size for a family coming with ski and snow gear too.
So Much to Do at Mountain Creek Resort
In addition to the waterpark, there are so many other outdoor activities to enjoy! Mountain Creek Resort is home to a variety of outdoor recreation activities including Mountain Creek Bike Park, Mountain Creek Waterpark, Great Gorge Golf, the TreEscape Aerial Adventure Ropes Courses and Mountain Creek Zip Tours. Just 47 miles from the George Washington Bridge, Mountain Creek Resort is easily accessible for New York, New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania residents looking for a world-class resort experience.

No haven’t been to that resort , but at current heat level at my place anything to cool me off would be great . Water park sounds like a fairy tale
I never have been but that looks like a fun place to visit. With the heat we have here in SC I wish there was a park like that here!

Looks absolutely amazing , would love to go there
I would love to take my family here. It looks like so much fun. I love the cabana
Have never been to here before. I love the look of the place though lots of green scenery.
Looks like lots of fun. Too bad it’s 2,000 miles from me.
This looks like such a fun, family spot for sure! Love the cabana!
Water parks can be so much fun & nice way to keep cool during the summer.
This is beautiful I have never heard of this place before. What great family fun. Thank you so much for sharing
This looks awesome I went to a water park a few years ago and had a blast. I would love to go here
This type of water park is fantastic because it has something for all ages. My family enjoys a good water park much more than an amusement park.
I have never heard of this place before. But it looks and sounds awesome! Thanks for the article.
The cabanas, while not inexpensive, really make a trip to the waterpark SO much nicer.
Wow! This looks so fun! It got me thinking about family vacations and how many memory making opportunities are out there for family travel. What a great idea to visit a waterpark (I’ve actually never heard of mountain creek). Thanks for sharing
I really love the mountain setting of this park. It makes it so much more enjoyable.
