Re: Lake Compounce in Connecticut ?
I went there 3 or 4 years ago with my BIL & his family. It was 9 million degrees that day so we only did the waterpark side and it was very crowded. It was fun but I don't think I would go back. There were a lot of unsupervised kids running around cutting lines, messing up the wading pool, etc.

Re: Lake Compounce in Connecticut ?
I took my 2 nephews there (ages 9 and 7) last summer.
The water park area was INSANELY crowded. We walked through briefly - there was barely room to move.
There were a lot of rides for the 9 year old... The 7 year old was sort of stuck between being too big for the kiddie rides and too small for the adult rides.
There were a lot of games which the kids enjoyed.
The lines were long for the popular adult rides (we waited approximately 30 minutes for the log flume). We went on a weekend though.
The best thing about this place was the free drinks! Free soda and water machines all over the place! Bring your own cups to cut down time spent on line!
I would go again, but not on a weekend! Hope that helped!

I know because it's so close and pretty reasonably priced.
They have this jungle gym type thing that you climb to get to a slide while water periodically dumps on you - it was cute and adults can go on it too. There were two kids that pushed their way through the whole line. I physically blocked them so my niece that was 4 could safely sit to slide down.

Aw, crap. This is one of the places on our list for Sean's birthday. Scratch that one. Looks like it might be a trip to the Land of Make Believe.

Re: Lake Compounce in Connecticut ?
is there much to do for the "5 and under" crowd ?
we would most likely be going with 5 children, ages 5 and under 
and maybe an 11yr old, so its a hard mix to make both ages happy.

I was just going to suggest this, we have been hitting LOMB once a summer.
