Read more about this location
Juniper Hill Aquatic Center Splash Pad is part of Frankfort’s major summer aquatic complex and is best suited to families who want a full water day rather than a quick splash stop. The facility includes multiple pools, large and kid-sized slides, a lazy river, zero-depth entry pool with water play structure, climbing wall, diving board, and a splash pad for small children. For parents comparing value, this is the region’s stronger destination-style option when you want a broader aquatics experience and are comfortable with paid admission.
