Niles Park District Oasis Waterpark

Let me tell you, Nile’s Oasis Water Park is not just a water park—it’s a life-changing experience. As the winter rolls around I find myself reflecting on this day in the summer. I went in expecting a fun day splashing around but came out with an epic story of heroism, laughter, and one of the most memorable moments of my life. The day started innocently enough. As a proud 300-pound queen, I was determined to conquer every slide and diving board this park had to offer. But it wasn’t until I found myself in the SHALLOW END of the kiddie pool that my day truly took a turn. You see, somehow, a rogue pool noodle (which is not allowed at this fine establishment) had it out for me. One moment, I was floating gracefully like a water goddess, and the next, I was flailing like a majestic walrus in a tidal wave. The shallow water, combined with my impressive physique, created what can only be described as a “scene.” Enter the lifeguard team. They didn’t hesitate—nay, they SPRANG into action like Olympic champions. One grabbed my hand, and offered encouraging words like, “You’re doing great!” as they helped me find my footing. The entire rescue lasted about 30 seconds, but the applause from the crowd made it feel like a lifetime achievement award. Now I want a “Survivor of the Shallow End” T-shirt and to rename the kiddie pool after me (still waiting on that plaque!). The slides are incredible, the food is delicious, and the vibe is unmatched. But it’s the staff’s kindness, humor, and quick reflexes that make Niles Oasis a place I’ll rave about forever. 10/10 would absolutely get “rescued” again. P.S. The shallow end is now my favorite place in the park—purely for nostalgia, of course.

Best trunk or treat. Definitely worth the drive & price.. Kids under 2 don't pay. Neither do adults & wonderful treats plus so safe, FUN!

Wow and I mean wow. Where do I begin? The facility? Perfect. My toes have never grazed a finer pool. The ph? Perfection. The temperature? Perfection. The maintenance person must REALLY know his or her stuff! The lifeguards were SO friendly and I could tell they really love what they do! The managers were SO awesome when I went into cardiovascular failure! No wonder it’s a five star facility!

Cool place, good for visiting with children, tons of lifeguards, feels secure. A bit confused to where to get coins for lockers, wish they notified about it right when you pay for tickets and offer exchange instead of you finding out locker situation when you already naked 🥹 Also I would prefer water a 5f warmer, but this is probably just personal preferences :)
