Awesome Lazy River Introduce

Awesome Lazy River, located at 165 Dawson Dr, Shepherdsville, KY 40165, USA, offers a river floating experience. As a featured location within the "Water Parks Near Me" category, it aims to provide a relaxing outdoor activity.

However, customer reviews indicate significant issues with the experience. Visitors have reported that the river's current often flows in the opposite direction of a typical lazy river, requiring constant paddling. This has led to extended completion times, with some trips lasting over four hours instead of the expected two. The lack of adequate paddles and the limited availability of double rafts have also been noted as problems.

Several reviewers have expressed strong dissatisfaction, stating that the experience is more akin to paddling upstream than enjoying a lazy river. One reviewer even indicated that the current was so weak that everyone was turning around, making it difficult to progress. The provided paddles have been described as "tiny baby paddles," inadequate for the task.

Despite the intention to offer a relaxing experience, the execution has been criticized as poor. The fundamental issue of the current flowing in the wrong direction appears to be a consistent problem.

Went with a group of about 9 people. It was decent for the price. I would definitely recommend going earlier than later. They ran out of the double rafts and were running low on others. Also, my group did not receive any paddles. It was supposed to take around 2 hours to complete, but ended up lasting 4.5 hours. The wind was blowing the opposite direction and there was absolutely no current. Can't really have a good lazy river with no current. A few members of the group had to get out of their float ever so often to pull the group so it didnt last 6 hours. Not a terrible lazy river, but I will not be going back.

I’d give zero stars if I could. This is not a lazy river. The current goes the opposite way for a lazy river and they give you 1.5feet tiny baby paddles to be used the whole time. When we were there the current wasn’t even strong and the staff still told us everyone was turning around. I had kids with me they said it would be impossible to do and not be worth it. Currents don’t change so it’s always going to be a paddle upstream situation. They had a good idea and executed it very poorly.

There was nothing awesome about this lazy river!! The river was dead water and did not move. You had to paddle the whole time against the current. Let me remind you they give you a dollar tree paddle that isn't worth the plastic it's made with. Do not make the trip, do not waste your time nor money! I did give 1 star because the staff was very nice

Great experience! Amazing and knowledgeable staff. Be prepared, it is a river and expect it to be a river. We haven’t had any rain in a few weeks so river level was low and we had to paddle most the way. Trip took us 3 hours from getting out of the car to getting back in. Perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon. Make sure to pack river shoes for the end because you will have to walk across the river bed.

Tried “floating” on the river for the first time. At time of purchase, staff said the river was “slow.” Let me tell you, there is nothing “slow” about the river. They have you padding upstream to get to their designated end point. If you stop paddling for any reason, you will float back to where you started. Have you ever tried to paddle while sitting in an inner tube?? Forget being enjoyable, it’s torturous. We ended up letting the river take us back to the start point. I’d like to chalk it up being an “off weekend” but it’s not. The company needs to change their start and end points to fix this issue. And yet, something tells me that they don’t do this because they save money by not having to run buses. Save your money. Don’t go.
