SKYLAKE Adventures is a 126-acre water and adventure park in Sheridan, Indiana — about six minutes north of Grand Park — that opened June 4, 2026 with lake-based water attractions, and it offers two annual pass tiers (Explorer and Adventure) that can pay for themselves in roughly two to three visits for a family of four.
What's actually there right now
SKYLAKE's first phase, open for the 2026 season, centers on lake and water-based attractions: Splash Challenge, a large floating obstacle course with climbing, balancing, bouncing, and sliding features; Tidal Trek, a scaled-down floating course for kids age 4 and up; the X Tower, a roughly 40-foot jumping and sliding tower; and SKYSlides, a set of side-by-side water slide lanes. The property is organized around three beach zones — Splash Beach for young children, SKY Beach for families and teens, and South Beach for adults — plus general lake swimming, sand play areas, and rentable kayaks and paddle boards.
On land, there are lockers and changing rooms, picnic tables, retail shops, ADA-accessible beach access, restrooms, and food and beverage stands. The site is being developed in phases through 2031; a high ropes course is planned for fall 2026, with an all-season tubing hill targeted for around Thanksgiving.
2026 pricing
Daily admission runs $55 for ages 10 and up and $50 for ages 4-9, plus $15 parking per vehicle. Groups of 10 or more get 10% off tickets. Add-ons include AquaBana private cabanas at $35/day, an umbrella-and-two-chairs package at $35/day, kayak rentals at $30/hour (or $50 for two hours), and paddle board rentals at $35/hour (or $60 for two hours).
Does a season pass make sense?
SKYLAKE sells two annual pass tiers, priced in the $109-$159 range depending on the tier and any promotional timing:
Explorer Pass — unlimited visits for 12 months, with blackout dates on all July Fridays/Saturdays and major holidays, plus a 10% discount on tickets for guests you bring along.
Adventure Pass — unlimited visits with no blackout dates, standard parking included, 20% off up to 6 companion tickets per year, 10% off retail, and 2 complimentary guest tickets annually.
Do the math against your own family's habits: at $50-$55 per person per visit, a family of four spending a single day at SKYLAKE is already in the $200-$220 range before parking and any add-ons. If you'd realistically go three or more times in a season — which is an easy bar to clear for a family with Grand Park practices or tournaments happening six minutes down the road all summer — the Adventure Pass in particular can pencil out fast, especially once you factor in the included parking and discounted guest tickets for visiting cousins or teammates' families.
