Buccaneer Bay - Spring Hill, Florida

C C.

I Haven’t been here since I was a kid, I took my kids today to show them the park & mermaids. I was surprised the price was still $13 for adults and $8 for kids. But after entering I realized why, NOTHING has changed with time, it is VERY VERY outdated. My kids said it looked like a place you see in an old movie made in the 60s🙄🤣 one of the snack options in buccaneer bay was named “snack shack” ..”shack” is a really fitting name by the look of the building. The kiddie area was closed meaning everyone was forced to be in the spring, and there were only 2 slides with the same line that overflowed down to the side walk. Not enough to do and to many people. There were also LOTS of pop up tents like you see at the beach, it reminded me of a festival, lots of ppl camped out with wagons jammed in a little area with tons of stuff. It was a very messy scenery we had nowhere to sit to eat our packed lunch out of our normal sized back pack cooler.

We made it to the first mermaid showing. I remember it being a little mermaid skit when I was younger. I’m not sure if each show time is a different show but my kids were very bored with the one we saw today. They talked about the parks history, added a couple puns, and Danced a little. I guess you get what you pay for but definitely won’t make the drive to do it again but it was something different and an adventure for the kids and I so I gave it 2 stars.

Park also hit capacity by 11:30am

So this place is ok and water looks amazing and they have like a little mermaid show a floating dock to jump off of and 2 little water slides. Now for the bad and why it got 3 stars. The water is freezing cold. The price getting in isn't to bad but nowhere does it say till your in that the tube's for the lazy river are 10 extra each. Ok np bought them at 335 and didn't tell me that part closed at 4. Overall not horrible but they should specify things better.

Canaan and Kaylee gave great customer service. They both assured my safety and well-being. I Spoke with Canaan about high diving and had a conversation with Kaylee about CpR something about blowing through someone's nose with their mouth open when there conscience.. It makes a noise... 😂 ..I like swimming out to the dock .. reminds you what your capable of... It's a must ... That's where everyone is... Everyone is really friendly and I have to say I made many friends.Thank you Buccaneer Bay!

Had a pleasant morning with my husband floating in the lazy river, taking in the beautiful scenery, and enjoying the nice cool water. The mermaid show was cute and definitely is for the kids. They put on a good performance and swam their butts off! As a mermaid lover myself I do feel as tho with all the moneys brought into the park a few should go to updating their props, tank, and tails. The tails look like they cost $5 from amazon when there’re so many other beautiful ones out there. But other than that we had a great time!

It was such a fun experience. The park was really big. Wasn’t overcrowded. The water was super cold but also really pretty and blue. I got to see fishes in the water while snorkeling and it was really cool to see. Everything was also pretty affordable. 10/10 recommend.

We arrived shortly after opening, waited about 20/30 minutes to enter. The staff was friendly, the park was clean. My only major complaint is the lack of signs. We were a little lost looking for the boat entrance. Also, when we rented tubes no one told us we couldn't use them in the more shallow area, only to float. When we tried to float and use the kid float we brought with us, it wasn't allowed. I think the staff taking money for the tubes could've explained that especially since we were holding the kid float as we paid. Overall, it's worth the admission price.

This state park was nice and very small. The water was great, very cold, and they had a 20 foot dropped which was fun to jump on. I say the "lazy river" is overpriced because it is just a quick 2 minute float. It's just $10, but you're not missing much. The food was good but at the end of the day when you want to eat well you have no options.
