Spring break is only a few days away, and it is time for a getaway. Even though most of us can't afford to go to Mexico or Florida, we can still enjoy our spring break just as much. You know what I'm talking about: get into the car with a couple of your closest friends and head down to Wisconsin Dells.

The Dells, as most Wisconsinites call it, has America's largest water park, Noah's Ark. But if you go to Noah's Ark for spring break, you'll be disappointed because it is obviously closed during Wisconsin's frigid winter. But there is no need for tears, because your favorite Lakeland Rockstar has selected five fabulous indoor water parks for you and your buddies to visit during spring break. These places have something for everyone, including Grandma. Although why you would bring Grandma along on your spring break escapades is beyond me.

Who needs Florida when you can stay at hotels with outdoor Jacuzzis during snowfall?

1. The best indoor water park to go to during spring break is The Wilderness Resort. Many resorts claim to be America's largest indoor water park; they're lying to you. The Wilderness has 250,000 square feet of fun between its three water parks. The Wilderness has speed slides, tube slides, body slides, a lazy river, and indoor-to-outdoor hot tubs. What could be more awesome? If you plan to stay during the week, you'll get a rockstar price ranging from $99-130 per night. All I can say is, "Rock on!"

2. If no spots are available there, the Kalahari Resort is another mega indoor water park. The African themed resort has a lazy river and the "Pro Bowl," which is a contraption that spits you out at 40 mph into a spiral before you shoot back into the pool. It resembles a toilet bowl. Also, Kalahari's water slides exit the indoor water park. They start from the inside and then loop outside and back. Don't worry; the tubes are closed, but during the winter you can feel the change in temperature as you're sliding. One night here is $279.95, but if four people went you could split the bill, so it would be $70 per person. This rockstar gives those prices one star. That is not how you please a rockstar.
