The Long Branch Saloon, Dodge City

Went to the entrance and when they charged me $14 for 3 people, I thought they were crazy. I'm used to paying Disney prices! 🤯 I was blown away by how nice, clean, well staffed and great this place was for the price. Would give it 10 stars if I could. 🌟 Stayed at the KOA next door and it was a 5 minute walk. Get here at opening, noon on Friday, and have the entire park to yourself for about an hour. Crazy. Only around 3pm did it start getting busy. Two big slides, huge pool with diving boards, lazy river, concessions, multiple smaller slides, clean bathrooms, amazing. If you come to Dodge City, come here 100%.

I love that smaller kids can ride the water slides with a bigger person! There was a shortage of tubes at the peak hours, but we still were able to get one after a small wait. The lack of a drinking fountain is a bummer. At 4 they kicked everyone out of the pools for a “safety” break, but really it was just to sell more concessions. They also charge a $10 concession fee if you bring in outside food or a cooler. The lazy river was a favorite. They also have a smaller kids play structure, high dive, diving board, family slide, two water slides, two more short steep slides, a mini wave pool, a small climbing wall and a big pool. We had a blast and might stop back by again!
