Wild Bear Falls Water Park

A small but decent indoor waterpark at The Westgate Gatlinburg Resort. There are only two moderately thrilled water slides but only one was opened on the day we went. The stairs to go up the watersides were extremely uncomfortable. They have a lazy river and an outdoor hot tub and pool which was nice. The indoor pool/basketball area is a good size but the flooring is very rocky and all my kids had blisters or cuts from walking on it. Overall, it wasn’t crowded when we went in August (might be more crowded during the winter season) but they need some updates and repairs.

It’s a small waterpark, but great for the kids. Has a kiddy section, large hot tub, water slides and lazy river. It has showers in the locker rooms and provides towels. Food court has reasonable prices except for the soft drinks. $5 a cup and $1 for every refill. They should have free refills for the $5 a cup. Overall, not a bad place to just cool down and get wet. It’s an indoor water park, so rain or shine, you could have something to do with the kiddos.

My special needs son loves the water so indoor water parks are great in the winter. We’ve been here several times in the cold months and it’s always too cold. The water is very cold and the temperature inside the building isn’t warm enough. The lifeguards on duty are wearing pants, jackets, hoodies, and beanies if that tells you anything. My son would barely go to to enjoy anything but the hot tub because the pools are just too cold. We spent over $100 to get in here so it’s very disappointing and frustrating. I don’t think we will come back here unless it’s in the summer.

One of the worst water parks i have ever been to. Both slides were broken and both hot tubs. Not worth the money my kids and family thought it was a joke to be honest I don't recommend at all...

A hidden secret. This place can be difficult to get to coming from PF but worth the effort. It wasn't busy like most places. Great choice to keep the kids busy for a day.
