Rosemeade Rainforest Aquatic Complex

I’ve enjoyed taking my kids here since they were little, and we always have a good time. There is a 1 foot deep toddler area, a 2 foot pool, a lazy river 2 – 3 foot deep, a diving pool and a variety water slides — all in completely separate pools. I also enjoy coming here alone to swim laps and lay in the sun in the «grown up» area. Coolers are allowed and the concessions are cheap. They check the coolers for alcohol.

Dear City of Carrollton, please train your employees to treat patrons with respect. Your young employee at the counter is so disrespectful and rude, it’s shocking to see her as the face that greets customers as you walk in. She can’t be older than 17 and boy does she have a mouth and attitude on her! Bitter little thing!
I am a 50 year old business woman and would’ve fired her a long time ago. Sensitivity training goes a long way. Either train them how to behave ethically, morally and respectfully or get rid of the bad apples!

We love this place for the kids! It’s always clean and full of laughter and life. There are many different pools to swim in. There are large pools for the more advanced swimmers, a medium pool for beginners, a diving pool with boards, a large water slide for older kids and, our favorite, there’s a toddler play area with smaller slides and entertainment for little ones as well as a small lazy river for everyone. If you’re a resident it is super cheap to get in, which has made this our summer go-​to place when my 2.5 year old wants to get out of the house.
The only reason I am giving it a 4 star review instead of a 5 star review is that there seems to be some inconsistency among the life guards as to whether or not life jackets are required/​allowed in certain areas. One life guard told my nephew he couldn’t wear his life jacket in the lazy river, but when I asked another, they said it was fine. Which has made it a little confusing as to which areas the kids are allowed to wear life jackets and where they’re not. That’s the only place I see that could use some consistency and improvement. Otherwise, it is a perfect place to take your kids if you’re not looking to spend a ton of money, but want the kids to have a fun day.

Great place to bring your family and they have lifeguards. This this is the best place to go in the summer. I love this place and you like will it as well.

This place is within walking distance of our home! It was part of the reason we decided on the house we bought :) It’s a great place, 2 of my children do not know how to swim yet but there is a wonderful area only 1 ft deep with a slide and other fun things to do. We have gone almost every day this summer. Only giving 4 stars because a few lifeguards are rude on occasion. I get it– they probably repeat the same rules to a thousand people a day. But when talking to children they should use more tact and not take such a harsh tone. My 4 year old brought a floaty into the 1 ft area and apparently this is against the rules. The lifeguard practically yelled at her to get it out of the water when i was standing 3 feet away. Made her feel sad like she had done something wrong but we really did not know this was a rule. We know now though! :-/

Nice water park.

It’s a great place for the family. Got the family pass and go once a week. Munchkins love it.

Seems a little overpriced at 9 $ per person on a weekday if u don’t have a Carrollton addie, but we did enjoy our visit. The water was clean, the employees were friendly (young lady who answered the phone was helpful and pleasant) and the snack bar was nice. I particularly liked the small winding river with inner tubes.
We were able to bring in a cooler, food and drink, as long as no glass was involved. I believe part of the enjoyment came from it not being super crowded or super hot that day. There were shady spots and an outside shower for rinse offs. Bathroom was a little messy but typical of bathroom associated with public pool and was not gross, just not monitored for clean ups as well as it should have been.
We had fun for a few hours. Life guards apparently switch out every 15 min, prob to keep them fresh and on their toes. I witnessed a male lifeguard tell a child to not do something while in the winding river in a very professional and kind way. Public pools have come a long way since the 70’s and 80’s!
Btw, ck out the story behind the huge palm tree at front entrance… unique and touching addition to site.

Love this place, my son is 5 so the toddler play area with a 1ft pool with slides is perfect for him, very minimal supervision required, if they get out of your sight of range. They get to socialize and play with other kids. They also a small pool for kids that want to learn how to swim, it goes from 2ft to 3ft. He also enjoys this area as he’s still learning how to swim and he’s able to touch the floor if need. For older kids the have 3 diving boards separate from the other pools and also bigger slides for kids over 4ft. The main pool consist of 4ft thur 10ft with a water volleyball net at 4ft and inter-​tubes at the 9ft side. Lazy river also available and it’s about 3.5ft deep.
The staff seems well organizad and very alert of their surroundings, only thing that gets annoying is the consist yelling of no running when the floor is to hot for kids little feet.
Overall a great place for kids and teenagers its inexpensive if you live in Carrollton, $ 5/​person, they will ask for your ID to verify residence. $ 10/​person if not from Carrollton. As of 2013.

Nice place to let the kids play, and it wasn’t too much of a bore for me as the slides and diving boards were not too shabby. As other reviewers have already described, it’s a very nice public pool option. The snack bar has lots of yummy treats as well, and it wasn’t too overpriced. It’s a great value coming here when the kids need to cool off.

Pretty fun place. If you get here before 1:00 only the kiddy part of the park is open. After that the whole park is open. Big pool, pool with diving boards, and 2 slides. The slides go pretty fast. It was a fun day. The price is 9.00 per person if your not a residence. You can bring your own food & drinks. Would come here again.

Worst name ever. There’s nothing «rainforest» about it. But the place is a great time, regardless of the completely inaccurate name.
Here’s what you get for $ 5:
— 4 isolated water slides. Five minute wait time for a pretty fun mini-​ride. They range from kiddie size to a pretty fast tall ride
— A huge bucket that dumps a little tsunami every minute or so
— Massive kiddie area full of squirting guns, playscape areas, etc
— 2 Diving boards in their own isolated pool
— The world’s smallest lazy river. It’s more of a tranquil donut
— Main pool divided into 3 areas: Volleyball area, 5 foot medium area, and deep end
Watch out for the ground though… It gets CRAZY hot. Walking to and from the pool without running is nearly impossible without burning your feet.
Great value. I wish I had tried the snow cones, funnel cakes, and frito pies though.

Great place for a kids party! We only found this place because we were invited to an evening bday party for a 6 year old. The whole family was invited to stay and swim. I didn’t realize until the end that the two pools we were using were completely reserved by the party guests. There was a 10 inch deep pool with a slide and water sprayers that was GREAT for the littler kids to safely play in, as well as for the adults to wade in with their little ones. The other pool was a 3 ft deep 8 shaped ‘lazy river’. I was worried about my 6 year old using it because even though he has taken lessons he isn’t comfortable swimming on his own completely, and even though he could stand up I thought he might get nervous and panic or something. The water flows at such a perfect pace that he just swam around with his friends. It was great! Honestly a great place for kids tall enough to stand easily to practice/​learn to swim. There is also a big slide next to this pool. Oh yeah, and huge plus… life guards on duty. Not only were they there and watching the water consistently, but they were also good sports. The kids had water squirters, and the life guards (more than one) let the kids shoot them without getting mad about it. It was a great time and we will definitely try to go back… maybe for a 7^th bday party!

This is a very nice Municipal pool. Basically, it is a Swimming Pool with a water-​park add-​on at one end. They have a small-​child «Adventure» area and tiny Lazy River on the north end of the complex. The majority of the complex is regular swimming pool.
The designer separated the pool types into distinct and separate pools so there is no risk of someone straying from one pool type to another accidentally. The shallow wading pool is separate from the diving area pool. The lane pool is separated from both the diving pool and the wading pool. There are two Adventure Slides that terminate in their own pool. Good design!
On my way in, I noticed a sign-​up sheet for swimming classes. Turns out that they teach adult swimming classes for not much money and they keep the total enrollment to a very small number. One of the people who is my Lazy River Buddy officially can’t swim. We are after her to get some Drown-​Proofing! She is working on getting signed up. This is a good thing.
OK. The Lazy River Review. Tiny Lazy River. But, what it has that is entertaining is one of those giant water-​dump buckets that splashes down onto part of the Lazy River. It was fun. So, is this the ultimate Lazy River I am seeking? Nope. Would I go back? Certainly, if what I wanted was inexpensive swimming pool entertainment for the entire family. This place is a bargain!

Wow. I was really impressed with the City of Carrollton after going here. It’s a great waterpark and CHEAP $ 3 for residents, $ 6 for non residents. You can bring a cooler — no alcohol, of course, but you can pack food and drinks for the family.
I wish the people would be a little more courteous and pick up their damn trash. Also, in the kiddie area — you can find some random kids swimming around — like their parents use this place as an unsupervised daycare.
Other than that, I think this is an awesome cheap way to spend a weekend.
