Deep River Water Park in Merrillville is calling it a season early, closing August 15th despite power restored just four days later—damage from August 11th storms, including a shattered main sign and ruined umbrellas, plus the slow cleanup of the lazy river, made reopening impossible before summer’s end. All event deposits are refunded; tickets bought in packages, won in contests, or for closed days will roll over to 2027, with reopening slated for May 28, 2027. Attendance woes persist—rainy, cool June weather and stiff competition from other entertainment options hurt crowds. Once open 102 days (Memorial Day to Labor Day), they’ve shrunk to just 84 days this year due to staff leaving for college earlier. Power’s back, but the park’s done—for now.
