Trying to use an II deposit before it expires and hoping to give two girls (7 and 4) a really fun resort experience, i.e. onsite minigolf, waterslides, resort activities, etc.
During our timeframe we see the following availability: MCP, MHZ, PCC, VIT AND MGV
Wondering which might have the best 'fun factor'?

TIA

I think MHZ would fit the bill. Though mini golf may have a fee for non owners.

MCP - No waterslide. Small mini golf course
MHZ - Waterslide, mini golf and major splash pad. This place was built for kids
PCC - Can't speak to this resort but there will likely be a daily resort fee.
VIT - One pool has a waterslide and there is mini golf
MGV - No waterslide and no mini golf

I agree with Harbour lake ( MHZ). It is very child friendly and it is a small resort so it is easy to get to all the fun things. Last time I was there…pre pandemic….here were a lot of activities for children.

We were at MHZ over NYE and saw activities. MHZ has a small footprint, so easy to get around the property.

Went to VIT just this summer; great sprawling resort, nice areas to walk about, plenty of activities and a steam room that works, lots of families and children abound. No resort fees, free parking.
