Waterpark Rules & Guest Guidelines

Welcome to Adventure—Safely

We’re thrilled to have you join us at the Pecan Valley Resort Waterpark, where desert sunshine meets wave-riding fun. To help every guest enjoy a safe, comfortable, and adventure-filled day, we’ve outlined a few helpful guidelines. Whether you're floating down the lazy river, catching waves on our surf machine, or relaxing poolside with a view of red rock canyons, our goal is to keep the good vibes flowing.
