We spent all afternoon at the nearby Lakeway Swim Center. It was the perfect size and depth for my kids to enjoy. The shallow area is roped off with the deepest at 3 ft including a froggy slide for the wee ones. There are 2 big slides and a lilly pad crossing for the bigger kids...at least 48 inches tall. After 3 hours of continuous (BIG) water slide fun, 'Alex' was told he is only 47 1/2" tall by a life guard and demoted to the froggy slide. It caused a small tantrum but we got over it and enjoyed another hour of fun.
