Lake Pines is fun for a special treat. Off the Murch. A little pricey but nice. A few years back we went to Waldo's beach once and had fun. I've never been to Fantasy Water Park

The only other pool option I know of is Seabrook only $1 per child (12 and under) and $2 per adult
the pool is nice especially for little kids. The only downside is it gets crowded when school is out.

A free option for a hot day is the splash pad. mostly for preschool/ toddler age but there is also a playground and covered picnic bench beside the sprinkler park.
