“KALAHARI RESORTS IS REINSTATING FAMILY TIME, STARTING WITH SUMMER VACATION”!
“Authentically-African Themed Resort is on a Mission to Save Family Time Before it Becomes Extinct”!
In my home, It’s that time of year when we start thinking about family vacation time! It’s something we only get to do once or twice a year. “Due to the demands of modern life and overbooked schedules, families are, on average, spending less than eight hours per week with one another“. I know this is true in my family. We are always so busy with work, school, extra circular activities and the like that we’re like ships passing in the night. Finding a time we can all cut the ties that bind us to our responsibility has often proven to be a difficult task. That;s why this summer my family has decided to divide our vacation time into three separate weekend getaways. We’ll be headed to Kalahari Resorts in Sandusky, Ohio for a fabulous weekend adventure! The Kalahari is and African-themed family destination boasting the largest indoor water park in the entire US.

Been wanting to go there for awhile! Looks like so much fun!
This place sounds awesome. We have been planning on going to Wisconsin Dells for awhile now so this would be perfect for us.
I loved the Dells when I was a kid and I am excited to take my own there. This place would be perfect.

Living only an hour from the dells, we’ve been to the Kalahari before, but that was before we had our son, who is now 2. I would love to go again and watch him enjoy the water park!
We’re heading to WI Dells the end of this month. We’ve never been to the Kalahari. It would be a blast!

Oh this would be so much fun we always have been there in the winter for our family Christmas but we do not do that anymore because everyone lives so far a way the outside looks like it would be very fun to try!
This would be so much fun! I have 3 kids and they would love to do something fun like this!
My husband and I would love to take our grandkids. They would have a blast. Ours would be the Sandusky location so we would be by Cedar Point too. Plus you can’t beat a $40. Gas card.
I did not think I would want to go to a waterpark, but this looks amazing!!

This would be a great vacation with my husband and kids
I’ve been to the Sandusky location, and it was so much fun! There is so much to do. I’d love to go again.
This looks like a lot of fun, and it would sure take a big bite out of the expense for us taking all five kids on a summer excursion. Kids never seem to sleep as good as when they have been playing in the water.
I would love to take my kids there
