The Ridge Indoor Pools include a leisure/activity pool with lots of play features. Floor geysers, bodyflume slide, current channel, bubble bench, zero grade entry, children's play structure with tot slide. Something for all ages and swim ability! I loved this place when my kids were itty bittys because infants are free and then define infant as not walking. If you live outside the district the fees are $5.25/7.25 for children and adults. Be sure to call for updated pool times as they change from season to season.

Another fancy water facility with winding river and water slides. You'll pay about $1-2 more if you live outside the district but at $5.25 and $7.25 for kids and adults respectively, it's still cheaper than a movie and you'll wear your kiddos out that much faster!

We frequent this pool because it is very conveniently located in the Lowry neighborhood. If you are a non-resident it is a little more expensive at $3 for kids and $10 for adult but for us residents it's $5 or you can buy different memberships. My kids love the "roundy roundy" slide and the zero grade entry makes it suitable for all ages/levels of swim ability. Be sure to check the open swim times before going!

The aquatic facilities at the Golden Community Center are another great option for indoor water play. Their leisure pool features interactive play equipment and 150 ft. slide with water depth ranging from 0" to 3'6". Another place perfect for all ages and swim ability. They have also added an indoor play area that rivals any playground!
Tots 5 and under $2.00
Youth 6-18 $3.75
Adult 19-59 $5.50
Seniors 60+ $4.00

My kids (9, 7, and 4) have always loved the water and swimming. Apex Center in Arvada has the most spectacular indoor water facilities I think I've ever seen. 23,000 square feet of indoor water fun: body and tube slide rides, zero-depth water playground, vortex pool, activity pool, lap pool, adult and
family hot tubs. There is something for every age here and we often bring our lunch with us and give the kids some play time in the free indoor playground before heading home.
The facility also has a gym, 2 ice rinks, childcare, climbing wall.... you get the picture!
