Texas families will be able to enjoy adventures on slides offering thrills “from mild to wild”; catch an epic wave on the FlowRider® surfing simulator (beginners welcome!); float down the action river, tiny tot fun in Rascal’s Round-Up (our children’s play area) and splash in the Swimming Hole – all amidst a spectacular resort-quality setting with amenities that include a café, full-service bar, rentable cabanas and complimentary parking. The waterpark is now ready for visitors to experience all the awe-inspiring slides, Texas’ longest indoor action river, outdoor wave pool with sun deck and more beginning May 29, 2020.
“There is no doubt that as a country we have been through a challenging time. We have heard from so many families who have been counting the days until they could once again enjoy outings together. We are proud to offer a family- friendly atmosphere with a focus on a superb guest experience,” said Richard Coleman, American Resort Management CEO. “We can’t wait to welcome back friends and fans and see their smiling faces in our waterpark again.”

About Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark:
Situated west of Highway 161 between Arkansas Lane and Warrior Trail near the southwest Dallas County-Tarrant County border, Epic Waters is an 80,000-square foot, resort-styled, indoor-outdoor waterpark that offers year-round operations delivered courtesy of an enormous retractable roof and a climate-controlled wintertime interior. The facility is the largest indoor waterpark under a single retractable roof in North America, as well as the largest indoor waterpark in Texas.
Billed as a “cruise ship on land,” the park boasts wet and dry attractions for every member of the family, including 12 waterslides, (three of which are waterpark industry firsts), the longest indoor “action” river in Texas, a children’s play
area that’s equipped with an aquatic fort, a double FlowRider® surfing simulator, a 45-game arcade, a café and full- service bar, private event space and table-service cabanas, and much more. In 2019, the park added a 10,000 square- foot outdoor wave pool.
