Read more about this location
Battle of Lake Erie is Waldameer Water World's signature splash-play structure in Erie. The attraction is themed to the War of 1812 and centers on a multi-level water playground with over 100 water features, seven slides, interactive sprays, dumping buckets, and a massive 400-gallon tipping bucket. It is best for families planning a full paid water-park day rather than a quick public splash stop, and it offers far more activity than a typical neighborhood splash pad.
