Park Entrance
Water Country USA moved its entrance about 1,200 feet to the northeast along Route 199. The traditional entrance closed permanently because of a nearby construction project. But the new entrance still leads to the mid-Atlantic's largest water park - home to more than a dozen rides and slides for the young and young-at-heart.
