OLD FORGE, N.Y. — The new owners of Calypso’s Cove announced the fun park’s first new attraction. A ropes course with a zipline will debut this summer, Innovative Attraction Management (IAM) announced.
Calypso’s Cove is located next door to Enchanted Forest Water Safari water park. IAM purchased Water Safari Resort including the fun park, water park, Old Forge Camping Resort, and Water’s Edge Inn in March from K&K Old Forge, Inc., and the Noonan family.
The two-level rope course, 30 feet in the air, winds through various features andobstacles. A curved zipline glides around the perimeter of the course, which replaces batting cages, rock-climbing wall, and zipline.
“Our new ropes course with zipline is an exciting addition to Calypso’s Cove and the Water Safari Resort family,” Water Safari Resort President Cathy Dunlap said in a news release. “It’s a great attraction for families and groups to experience together for team building, bonding, agility, and fun. We look forward to watching the attraction come to life and to welcome guests to experience it this summer.”
Windermere, Florida–based IAM manages a number of amusement and water parks across the U.S. and in several other countries. Water Safari Resort is the first park the company has owned.
