About the Venue

Idle Hour Park Splash Pad is one of the most complete public splash-pad outings in East Alabama. The official Phenix City park page lists a splash pad, playground, pavilion, picnic areas, restrooms, a jogging path, nature trail, and Moon Lake. Splash-pad rules on the city page say it runs daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., weather permitting, making it a strong warm-weather choice for families who want more than a quick splash stop.
