Reviews of SouthTown Wake Park (Park)

Dean Rogers

The park was a really cool place. The kids loved the water park course. The website leaves a little to be desired. Plus even though it is great for their business with the day camps they provide taking priority over walks ins, they were short on equipment for the general public to use. Thus we were unable to use the wakeboarding features which were the main reason for our visit. This would have been good to know prior to driving there, but they did not have enough staff to answer the phones. We hope to return at some point to try the wakeboarding.

First time here and LOVED this place. Easy enough for beginners, challenging enough for advanced riders, and just a nice place to hang out for the rest of the family. Owner was super welcoming AND my son was thrilled to run into some pro wakeboarders.

This place has extremely nice owners and staff. Everyone is very helpful and quick to try to help you succeed and have fun. It’s a great place to wakeboard or just hangout.

nice

Doug Cha

Loved it. Fairly new to wake boarding but thought this was a well run operation. Professional and friendly staff as well! They just need to add a hotdog bbq pit

Sam Galphin

Well organized, plenty of help, good web site, and a lot of fun. Easy to access, great outdoor space to watch festivities and hang out. You can bring or rent everything you need (except a suit). Saturdays and Sundays are busy during "the season". They want kids 7 and up on the obstacle course I think.

Absolutely love this place. One of the funnest places I’ve been to to ride. The features are great and perfect to learn or progress on, but the general vibe is really what makes this place my favorite. The owners and all the staff here are all amazing. You feel right at home whether you are experienced and know what you’re doing or if you have never been on a wakeboard in your life. Would and do recommend to everyone.

My wife decided to surprise me on my birthday with a trip to SouthTown. Amazing experience. I am horrible with names, but I believe it was Parker who helped this first time wakeboarder start to shred. Okay, shred may be a bit of an exaggeration, but I had a blast, and will definitely be back. The entire staff was friendly and helpful, as were the experienced riders.

Went today with a small group of boys (11 and 12) and loved it! The staff and owners were amazing! We had so much fun we are planning another trip back with the husbands! Thanks for a fun day Southtown Wake Park! See you again soon!

I went to South Town with a group of nine yesterday. There were three adults and six kids. The kids ranged in age from seven to ten. The kids and two of the adults had no wakeboard experience whatsoever. All of the beginners did the 20 minute "get started pass" which is only $20 and includes equipment. I would highly recommend the get started pass for anyone new to wake boarding on a park. Even if you're experienced behind a boat, it's worth the $20 to have a dedicated instructor explain how to do the park. Ask for Kyle if he's available. He is an outstanding instructor and very good with children. After our lesson, we all (kids and adults) wake boarded and knee boarded for another three hours. Everybody enjoyed it. Nobody got hurt. It was just an all around great day. We had so much fun that some of us are coming back again today. Something else worth mentioning is, there were around six regulars there that were absolutely incredible; spinning, flipping, etc. It was like something you'd see on tv. Even if you're not planning on participating, you can have an absolute blast just relaxing and watching the experts. Another tip is, bring food. They sell beer, but I didn't see any food. I'd suggest bringing a pizza, some snacks, and water.

This is such an amazing jewel for outdoor recreation in the area. Wake park is good for kids and adults. The water park area has awesome floating obstacles for kids ages 7 and up. Staff is super friendly, go check this out!

Harry Bolton

I have been there twice since the park has opened, and have become absolutely hooked on wakeboarding. Such friendly staff and coaches that are wanting to help and see you improve. Great environment to spend time in and I can't wait to be back!

Is it it's official it's a !must do! cable Lake wake park

Brittany Henning

I had an awesome time here! The owner was so nice and hospitable. The features were great and not too many people there. The cable operators are very happy to help you succeed if you are a beginner. I will definitely come back with all my friends! They are dog-friendly right now too :)

I took 2 children and 2 teenagers last Sunday and we all had the best time. I loved talking to and hanging out with owners, Beth and Jack Ellis. This was our first time wake boarding and they both helped coach and took care of our every need. Thanks to Alex for helping my 10 year old twins at the big lake. Everyone was having so much fun we didn't want to leave. We will definitely be back. :)

Jennifer Avila

Chris Doran

Super awesome time...my kids got up almost immediately and haven't stopped talking about it since. I foresee many, many more days there.

Robert Burke

Really cool

BERNICE HALL

Nice place to have fun and watch, join the fun.

Gets a 5 only because I can't put a 6/5

Daniel Franklin

Went for my first time last weekend and loved it, just started wakeboarding last summer and this will be perfect to grow better on. Staff was absolutely amazing the whole time. Price is well worth it, two hours on cables seems to go so much further than two hours behind a boat. Can’t wait to head back down.

Chelsea Reagan-Summers

My husband and I just spent the day here and could not have been more pleased! A great experience, reasonable price, and awesome time spent. The owner, Trent, was so helpful and kind along with all of the rest of the staff! You will not regret going here!!!

This is an AWESOME place to take your kiddos for the day. Very nice family environment with employees that love to be there. Better than any other complex I've been to. Lots of features.

We live in the community and decided to visit the Wake Park on Sunday afternoon. Our 8 year old grandson had never been in a kayak and wanted to try it. He enjoyed it so much that we went back Monday. My 2 nieces and a friend enjoyed trying the beginner's wakeboard. Family atmosphere and great, friendly staff. I encourage people to check the Wake Park out.

Nick W

Love it. First time there and I got in less than 10 min. The staff is nice and dog friendly.

Pedro Ramos

What a great surprise to find a Cable Park in the Charlotte area. This place exceeded all my expectations! Super nice staff, everyone is very welcoming and friendly...including the cable operator. This park has effectively added a great option for a super fun day, morning or afternoon for everyone in the area. Wakeboarding in this Cable Park is super fun for every age. Therefore, this is a perfect activity to do by yourself or with the whole family. Highly recommend for everyone to try it out and perhaps find a healthy new hobby in town.
