Seven Peaks Waterpark Duneland

So sad that Seven Peaks has such bad reviews. It’s a great place to go and relax. Clean facilities, polite employees, great stuff for the kids. If you compare them to Deep River, in my opinion, Seven peaks is way better. For simple reasons like, not so crowded you can’t see your kids. Everything doesn’t smell like urine. It’s not as «dark» as Deep River and it’s in a great location. So I’m sure the bad reviews are made by people who can’t appreciate simple, and their lives have to be filled with fake, overrated, irrational thoughts. If your looking for a place to take your kids, relax, enjoy some fun and sun seven peaks is the place. If you want to waddle like zombies, rub up on each other like cattle, and have a stroke trying to find some relaxation go to deep river, or better yet go swim in the swamp we call lake michigan.

Small park, but not too bad. The wooden stairs at the body slides are kind of scary. Otherwise it’s an okay place to spend the day.

I am pretty well off so spending 48 bucks for me and two kids is not that big of a deal, but then to be nickeled and dimed to death once you are inside the park! NO THANKS — Not Again EVER.
$ 5 bucks to get a one-​man tube ($ 4 after you return it)
$ 10 bucks to get a two-​man tube ($ 8 after you return it)
$ 5 for a locker
$ 5 to park
There is no Lazy River for my fat butt to laze around in and one of the attractions was closed.
The pools were dirty, the attendants were mostly attentive and the only redeeming benefit was that it was not all that crowded even though it was groupon day.
Good luck and bring your nickels

I really like this waterpark. It’s not very crowded. They don’t have many attractions, but they have a wave pool and that’s all I need. The price is great. I’ve been getting passes for 3 years now and it’s a great price. You can’t bring food in, but you can leave a cooler in your car and they will stamp your hand so you can come back in. They will let you bring in water though.
I do wish they had more ticket booths open. The line can get long.

The good… Seven Peak is a small park. I can take a bunch of kids and can keep track of all of them. The price of the pass of all passes makes it affordable.
The bad… They will not let you bring your own food which is terrible for families with food allergies. The food at the concession stand is a joke. I witnessed other patrons being served raw pizza and barely cooked french fries. If they are going to restrict customers from bringing in food to accommodate their children with food allergies, a suitable option should be available for these children. It is unfair to make customers go out to their car to eat because of an allergy. They should allow coolers or offer something healthy to eat.
We ended up there on a day that children were bussed in from a local child care club. These children were running around unsupervised, taking tubes and items that did not belong to them. The even dumped three of my kids off and took their triple tube. I had to get the lifeguard to give it back and it even took him getting in the wave pool to retrieve it. They wouldn’t listen nor did they care.

Its a small park. Good for an afternoon of fun with kids. Theres 3 toddler slides and a splash area. Two slides where tubes are needed. 4 body slides where no tube is needed. Also 4 other slides I haven’t been on because they are the steep ones. There is a wave pool too. No lazy river :(The food is reasonable with family pack options. You can bring in small coolers with drinks… I have seen people bring in food as well. I got the Pass of Passes for 20 dollars and it included parking and 2 tubes for my family. Its not as big as deep river however it isn’t as crowded. Also there is shade and umbrellas around and if you get there early you can have a chair too.

Disappointing as all the others have said. No umbrellas no landscaping, so no shade except for the 1 tree in the park, or if you want to sit at a picnic table in the pavillion.
Paying for tubes is so ridiculous, if you don’t want to use a tube slide, someone has to «babysit» them so somebody else does not take them. Most water parks these days have free tubes, but you wait in line to get one. If you pay for one, you don’t have to wait in line for a tube. Deep River makes you turn in your tube after the ride and get back in line, so folks are not waiting very long for a tube. Much better system.
They say the black and yellow slides can’t operate since they closed the lazy river and the holding area isn’t big enough??? The pool at the bottom of the slides seems to be the same as the body slides. They said hopefully next year, but maybe 2015.
I think if they wait until 2015, there will not be a 2015 season, as business will flop in 2014.
Paying to park is a joke, but if I MUST pay, please come up with a better system, 6 cars in front of me, and it took 13 minutes to get through the line. Can’t imagine how long it takes on a Saturday, when cars are lined up down the road!
Here are the 2013 attractions:
1 Funnel Slide (Tube necessary)
1 Sling Shot Slide (Tube necessary)
3 – 4 Old fashioned Body Slides
3 – 4 Straight slides of varying steepness.
Mediocre Wave Pool (finally open)
Kiddie Splash Area, with 1 or 2 small slides.
Glad I got a Groupon, and didn’t pay full price!

Went to this park on July 5^th. They had just opened for business a few days prior. They told us at the entry booth that the huge wave pool was not opened, but did not offer any discount in ticket price. The wave pool was one of there reasons we came to the park, but after driving 90 minutes to get there, we didn’t want to turn around. We were hoping the rest of the park would be good enough to make up for it. It didn’t. One slide looked to be either under construction, or demolition, hard to tell, but it wasn’t opened. There was no lazy river. There were three slides that were opened. One of them had rough seams on the flumes and left huge red scratches on my husband’s back (I saw people all over the park with these same scratches). One slide required tubes, which the park did not provide for free. I had to pay $ 16 for two inner tubes to ride this one slide, and the lines were SO long for this slide we could only ride it twice. In fact, the lines for ALL the slides were really long since the wave pool was closed, there wasn’t enough to do for all the guests. Overall, the place looked unkempt, with weeds and no landscaping, cracked sidewalks, etc. There were NO lawn chairs available to sit in or places to put our things. They have some, but not many, and they were all taken. Lockers were all taken. We had to pay for parking in a rural area adjacent to the park, a gravel lot that didn’t even have space markings. And since they insisted for charging for this gravel vacant lot, we had to wait in line for 15 minutes for the pleasure paying them. The only positive is that the snack bar was reasonably priced, thank goodness. I was able to get a hot dog family meal for $ 20 (4 dogs, sodas, chips). DO NOT GO TO THIS PARK!!! Big waste of money! If I could give it ½ star I would. I would have rather gone to our local park district slide pool.

Oh geez… took my daughters on Tuesday, July 17 knowing already what i was getting myself into. Had heard from friends that many slides were inoperable as well as the wave pool. Wasn’t ready for the security checkpoint before i had the pleasure of standing in line for 15 minutes just to enter the park. As the officer/​security guy/​high school student put his hands all inside my bag with my extra clothes, panties, bra, towels, i told him i thought this thorough check was unnecessary. Really. It’s one thing to look inside a bag, and a completely different thing to rummage through my personal belongings. Like, what are you looking for anyway? He stopped and asked if i had cigarettes. Umm, no. No i don’t. I’m just trying to take my daughters to this crappy place so they can quit bugging me about it everyday. Now, get your hands out of my bag. Thanks. Like i said, then i had to wait in line to show them our pass-​of-​all-​passes. Walked in, packed. Tried to find a chair, nope. Not a big deal, didn’t want to stay long so we plopped our stuff down under a tree. Refused to spend $ to rent a tube as the line for those slides was ridiculously long. My girls had fun in the kid-​infested area and the other wobbly slides that were working… so, two stars.

FIRST TIME and LAST TIME.
Worst waterpark ever!
Basically still under construction. You have to pay for parking, for the tubes for basically two slides. $ 8.50 for one double tube. They say there are all 17 slides. But really it’s only three.
The wave pool is derelict. You don’t find this out until you pay your money. A note saying «wave pool coming soon» and «no lazy river this season».
I didn’t feel safe on the steps to any of the slides. They were old and shaking etc.
No food or drinks allowed in. So you are stuck with buying overpriced rubbish.
I will go back to Deep River. It all amounts to the same price once you pay for all the extra crap.
DON“T GO HERE. It is awful.
