History

WildWater Adventure opened in 1991. The park carried out an extensive phase in 1997 and added the Snake Pit slide complex, the Mine Shaft family raft ride, two wave pools, and a children's play area. When Cedar Fair purchased the park from Roger Jourden they added cabanas to two of the wave pools and in 2005 added the Funnel of Fear tornado slide. In 2010, Michigan's Adventure announced over Facebook that a new attraction would be added to WildWater Adventure called Beach Party.
