8.What is this place?
The Cove is a miniature water park. There are three water slides, one lazy river, and one kiddie pool complete with water playground. That's all. It is situated on just a few acres. It's nice that it's small because you can keep an eye on your kids while you relax on your chair. But, it's small and it fills up quickly because Riverside County is a furnace during the summer.
9. What was so fun about this place?
It is filled with WATER!!! Who doesn't like going on water slides or laying in a lazy river.
10. What makes this place unique?
It is the oasis in Riverside. It is close to home for all of the inland empire folks. If you are in from out of town and you've blown $500 at Disneyland, don't spend another $200 at Raging Rivers or Soak City. If all you want to do is get wet and see what the local color does, spend $50 here and beat the heat.
11. What should I do while I am here?
While you are here, relax. Take it in and have fun with the folks around you. When you have had enough sun, head out to Downtown Riverside for a pub crawl, or to stop in at one of the many historic buildings. Do both at Heroes Restaurant and Brewery. Take a trip even more East to Perris, CA and visit the Train Museum (I'll review this place later). You can head south on the 15 to Tom's Farm too.
If you are in town for a few weeks, or if your dropping off the kid at grandma's for the summer, they offer swim lessons. My kid attended 5 sessions for swim and he always had wonderful instructors. Breanna was my favorite.
