Freedom Springs Aquatics Park in Greenwood opens for the 2026 season on May 23 and runs through September 7. The outdoor park has the kind of mix that works for a wide age range: water slides, a lazy river, a splash area for the youngest kids and plenty of room to settle in for the afternoon.
On the south side of Greenwood, Freedom Springs offers both thrill-seeker attractions and quieter pool time. Families can stop by for a casual swim, reserve a shaded rental, sign kids up for swim lessons or watch the calendar for special events throughout the season.
Attractions, Activities and Amenities
The park has water features for every age and comfort level. Families will find a tube slide, two body slides, a drop slide, a lazy river, a 25-meter lap pool, 1-meter and 3-meter diving boards, a lily pad crossing and a splash and play area for infants and toddlers.
Cabanas and shelters are available to rent, and the park has on-site concessions plus space for seasonal events. Freedom Springs also hosts adult-only nights and wraps up the season with Puppy POOLooza, a day when dogs get their own time in the water after the regular season ends.
Families interested in swim instruction or water fitness can look into the park’s seasonal programs. 2026 options include group swim lessons, parent-child swim lessons, private swim lessons, Junior Lifeguarding, Water Aerobics, Latin Dancing, Aqua Zumba, lap swim and Aqua Walk. Scuba is not on the schedule for 2026 but is expected to return in 2027.

Park Policies
Coolers are allowed at Freedom Springs, but only if they are packed with bottled water. Outside food and drinks are not permitted, with one exception: cake is allowed with a shelter rental. Coolers are checked at the gate.
If guests need to leave and come back the same day, they should ask for a hand stamp before exiting. Re-entry is allowed with the stamp.
The park may delay opening or close for weather, including lightning, thunder, severe storms, tornado watches or warnings, heavy rain or wind that limits pool visibility, and air temperatures under 70 degrees. Refunds are not given for weather closures.
Cabana and Shelter Rentals
Families who want a shaded home base can rent a cabana or shelter. Cabanas include private shaded seating with a couch, two chairs and a table, plus room for up to six people. Admission is not included with cabana rentals, and outside food is not allowed inside cabanas.
Cabana rental rates:
- Half Day Monday-Thursday: $30
- Half Day Friday-Sunday: $40
- Full Day Monday-Thursday: $50
- Full Day Friday-Saturday: $60
Back-to-school cabana time blocks vary by day, with shorter weekday hours once the park moves to its August schedule. Special event nights may have separate rental rates.
Shelter rentals fit up to 50 people. Monday-Thursday shelter rentals are $150, and Friday-Sunday rentals are $200. Admission is not included, but Greenwood residents receive 50% off admission with a shelter rental.
