• Slide: Whizz down the nearly four-foot Slide.
• Foxtrot: The Foxtrot is a challenging balance beam that’s great for head-to-head competitions.

In addition to the Aquapark, Honey Creek Resort offers its guests ample opportunity for recreation on Rathbun Lake – Iowa’s second-largest lake, boasting 11,000 acres of water and 150 miles of shoreline. Beginning this summer, Honey Creek will offer laser tag, disc golf, Kan-Jam, karaoke, and oversized games like Jenga, Connect Four and pong.

Also included in every overnight stay at Honey Creek is the use of its water trampoline, stand up paddleboards, kayaks, beach volleyball, horseshoe pit and fishing equipment; or guests can rent a variety of seasonal watercraft like jet skis, ski boats and pontoons. Visitors can also bring their own watercraft and use Honey Creek’s marina with a boat launch, fishing pier and 40 boat slips.

In addition, Honey Creek Resort features Buccaneer Bay Indoor Water Park, educational naturalist programs, outdoor recreation like hiking and beach volleyball, and The Preserve at Rathbun Lake, an 18-hole, Audubon-certified golf course.

The resort also recently announced Honey Creek Live, a new, six-week outdoor concert series that will take place on Honey Creek’s Great Lawn, overlooking Rathbun Lake, every Thursday from June 28 to Aug. 2.
