Silverleaf Resorts Timeshare Adding Water Park at Fox River Resort
Tuesday, May 28, 2013
Earlier this month, Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. announced its plans for an indoor water park at the Silverleaf Resorts timeshare, Fox River Resort. Located in Sheridan, Illinois, a little more than a one-hour drive southwest of Chicago, the water park is already under development and is scheduled to open some time next summer (2014).
With a $10 million price tag, the indoor water park will include an aquatic playground, a lazy river, multiple indoor/outdoor tube rides and water slides, and a signature “bucket dump.” Covering some 19,000 square feet with water fun, the park will also include a 10,000 square foot structure to accommodate food service, arcade games, a gift shop, and changing rooms.
Thomas J. Morris, CEO of Silverleaf Resorts timeshare says, “We are pleased to announce the construction of our second indoor water park within our network of resorts. The Water Park at The Villages Resort located in East Texas has provided a wonderful, year round, family entertainment experience for our owners since 2008. We are excited to bring this same attraction to our owners in the Chicago area and feel confident that this new amenity will bring lasting memories to our members and their families and will further enhance their vacation experience.”
Silverleaf Resorts timeshare owners and members at Fox River Resort already enjoy private access to on-property amenities, including two swimming pools, an executive golf course, miniature golf, tennis, a softball field, and horseback riding as well as convenient proximity to the Starved Rock State Park.
