Hartland’s Caroselli Aquatic Center

A great and easy place to have a birthday party. There are a few spaces to choose from depending on the size of your party, and you can also rent the pool side in addition to the play area. We rented the whole facility several times but the kids seem to love the play side most. There’s a fun water slide, lazy river and splash area. There’s also a hot tub for the adults.

I went here as a guest to a private party (they rented the whole pool for the evening), so I can’t comment on what it is like during public hours. This place was great. It has a large twisting water slide, a tiny lazy river with those swimming noodles to hang onto (or in my case, put under your behind so you float along in the sitting position:), and a little kids area that is shallow and has water cannons, a little slide and buckets that fill up and splash down on everyone. They also have a lap pool, diving boards, water basketball, and a hot tub. Lifeguards are on duty and they will blow their whistle at you if you try and catch a little kid coming off of the big water slide (oops;) They have life jackets and goggles you can borrow, although I am sure those go quick during the public hours. It is not a huge place, but a neat little gem found in a local high school!
