Grand Texas hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for Big Rivers Waterpark and Gator Bayou Adventure Park on December 14, 2017. Both parks are the newest additions to the 630-acre Grand Texas development located on Highway 242 and Interstate 69, near Houston. Monty Galland, Chief Executive Officer of the developer, proclaimed, “It’s great to see the concentrated efforts of the development team come to fruition. Adding Big Rivers Waterpark and Gator Bayou to the existing Speedsportz Racing Park and Grand Texas RV Resort will make Grand Texas one of the most exciting destinations in Houston.”

Big Rivers and Gator Bayou will sit on 80 acres. The waterpark portion will comprise the largest lazy river in the Houston area; the largest interactive play structure in Texas; a wave pool capable of generating the tallest waves in Houston; and a variety of waterslides and activities for guests of all ages. Guests will even be able to learn about Texas’ rivers through entertainment, interactive activities, and theming. There are activities for families, thrill seekers, and students at Big Rivers Waterpark.
