Welcome to Grizzly Jack's Grand Bear Resort at Starved Rock!
Come enjoy skin-drenching fun in Illinois's favorite year-round indoor water park! Your family's vacation starts at Grand Bear Falls, our 24,000 square foot indoor waterpark. Splash all day in the wave pool, slide down a water slide, float down the lazy river, or wade in the kiddie pool with your little ones.
When water park time is over, dry off, stop by the Cave Arcade for some video game fun or hop on the park train and head to Lumber Jack's Pizzeria and Sports Bar for a great casual family dining experience. Lumber Jack's is located inside The Enchanted Forest, our exciting indoor amusement park. Have a blast in our 36,000 square feet of indoor fun featuring nine full size amusement park rides, video games, music and as much fun as you and the kids can handle!
