Largest Inflatable Waterpark in Indiana's 2025 Opening Date

Old Ben Adventure Park in Winslow, Indiana, has announced its 2025 opening date, along with some new unique attractions in the works!

Pike County is the home of an inflatable waterpark that opened in 2023. It sits on a 266-acre former Boy Scout Reservation, Old Ben Boy Scout Reservation, in Winslow. The reservation got a major makeover, and it was converted into a new adventure park known as Old Ben Adventure Park.

What is Old Ben Adventure Park?

This place is actually the largest inflatable waterpark in Indiana. According to their website:

Besides the 300ft x 150ft floating obstacle course, the park offers watercraft rentals such as paddle boards, kayaks, and pedal boats. If the course is not for you, the beach area has sand volleyball, a 40x 25 foot jump pad, bounce house, and plenty of outdoor games for everyone. We have a shallow area on the edge of the beach for the little ones to play in and the adults to cool off, but we do not have a swimming area.

On top of all of that, last year, Old Ben Adventure Park opened up a laser tag range and Indiana's only 3 1/2 story geometric multilevel climbing dome.

The website says that they have a few new attractions coming soon, such as The Cannon Ball Blob, a 125-foot water slide, and zip-lining. Again, this place is absolutely awesome!

When Will Old Ben Adventure Park Open in 2025?

According to Old Ben Adventure Park's website, the 2025 opening date will be May 24th. The inflatable AquaPark will be open Friday through Sunday from 12 p.m. until 5 p.m. EST. I can't wait to take my family here this year. It's surely going to be a highly popular hangout in southern Indiana during the summer.

Old Ben AquaPark and Campground is located at 5737 E County Road 175 North in Winslow, Indiana. Be sure to visit the Old Ben Adventure Park website, as they will be updating it with more details soon.

KEEP READING: 40 Real Indiana Towns with Quirky, Weird, and Funny Names

Outside the major cities, the Hoosier state is full of tiny little towns you've probably passed through on your way to one of those cities. Most of them are likely 100 to 150 years old, or older, and have been around far longer than the large metropolitan areas such as Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, South Bend, and Evansville. Typically, they were started by early settlers who found their way to the state and decided to make it home. Eventually, others would join them, and a community was formed. Over time, as the surrounding areas grew, most of them were folded into those areas and governed by the nearest city or county's governing body officially making them "unincorporated," meaning they did not have their own formally organized municipal government.

A scroll through Wikipedia's long list of unincorporated communities in Indiana shows several of them have names that by today's standards would be considered weird, quirky, or just downright right funny. These are my 40 favorities.
