Editor's Take

A stronger all-ages summer choice than a simple splash pad, especially if siblings want both slides and shallow-entry play.

About the Venue

The Onalaska Aquatic Center combines full pool amenities with splash-friendly play for younger swimmers. Families get an 8,500-square-foot zero-depth pool, lap lanes, multiple slides, and a dedicated water play area with a small slide for younger kids, making it a stronger fit for mixed-age groups than a basic splash pad alone. The facility also offers concessions, birthday party rentals, and exclusive private rentals on summer weekends.
