Serengeti Springs at the Hattiesburg Zoo - Hattiesburg, Mississippi

This was a back to school trip for those of us that have children. Really enjoyed this place and although it did rain we were still able to enjoy a few hours before the rain came in and we may have waited maybe 45 minutes or an hour for the storm to pass over and thankfully it did so we were able to stay the entire day. It is HIGHLY recommended that you purchase your tickets in advance bc they do state on their website that DO NOT drive a far without a ticket bc SOLD out means SOLD out and no tickets can be purchased. All over this was a neat little place and we enjoyed our outing. Drove from Mobile, Al.

This should be advertised as a splash pad. Not water park.

Slides don’t dump into water-just water in slide at end.

Lazy River PACKED with people. Kids getting stuck under adults floats. And it’s a very very small River.

Whatever the “max” number of people is should be lowered by at least 100people.

Wait for food 45+min with no where to sit.

Not enough bathrooms. In place for kids and families only ONE family bathroom.

Due to too many people lines for all the slides very long with no control over them-
People skipping etc.

Pics added to show the number of people shoved into a tiny space.

The waterpark or should i say “splash park” was very small and awfully crowded; there wasn’t many slides.. Most people spent there time in the lazy river where it was overly full. The staff didn’t have control over the kids they were just sliding whenever they wanted. Also after getting off the slides, you don’t land into a pool of water, you just slide. overall 6/10

My family and I planned a two-hour trip for my daughter's 8th birthday as we do every year due to her birthday being in June. I can honestly say I regret trying something new. I was not able to rent a cabana because they were sold out and i didnt understand until we got there .Glad we paid for tickets in advance because they were literally turning people around at the door. First impression was it looked cute but small. The rides were definitely designed with kids in mind. The lazy river was short and cramped compared to others. Having the tubes and people just swimming doesn't go well together either take the tubes or don't allow people to free swim because room is limited. There's no regular pool for those who just want to relax. The food line was decent but there was literally no where to sit. We ate on the ground in the hot sun. And I was dissatisfied because I had high hopes.

Had a wonderful time! I do not like the most of the concrete is painted black, as the color black absorbs the sun. Love the idea of a drink in a gallon bag.

I bought tickets online and a cabana last month for my daughter’s 2nd birthday this weekend and this place is a 10/10! I highly recommend buying tickets at least a month in advance as I did. The cabana is also worth every penny!The reviews had me a little nervous, but I think the issue is people don’t expect crowds. This place is nice and affordable, so of course other people want to come check it out too! I arrived about 10:30am and the parking lot was already PACKED, but I was still able to find a spot. I’ll definitely come back!

Bad experience with rain the rule is you have to wait 2 hours if no water before they will gibe you a rain check. I was maybe in the park 10 minutes before they took us out the water. There was no mention of this when purchasing tickets. They coulda gave some warning.
