Reservations Are RequiredDue to the ongoing pandemic and for the health and safety of our guests, we will be implementing special procedures to keep our guests and our employees safe as a precaution against COVID. One of our safety measures is limiting the capacity of guests we allow inside in a single day. It is the current law to have less than 50% capacity during MGCQ. ​ Because we do not want guests to drive a long distance just to find out that we do not have any more room, we are requiring reservations. Please use the reservation link and use the booking calendar to submit your reservation today! ​ You must make your reservation for the correct number of people. We will only allow the number of guests on your reservation inside the park. 1 spot - 1 person or 1 PAX.
-
Reservation Advance PaymentsBecause we have a limited capacity, our space can fill up pretty quickly. It is unfair to other guests if a reservation is submitted, but the guest does not show up. Due to this, we are requiring an advance payment of 50 Pesos per head to secure a reservation. Payment instructions are given at checkout. ​ Please pay your advance payment within 4 business days from the date you submit your reservation request in order to hold your reservation. If there are any issues with this, please contact us. ​ If your reservation request is less than 4 days away from your reservation date, there is no need to make a deposit. You can pay upon arrival. ​ Don't worry. The advance payment is not an extra fee and will be applied to your total when you check in. Also, you will not have to pay for those that do not end up showing up. The advanced payment for those people that do not show will just be applied to those who do show.
-
Adding Additional Guests to ReservationTo add guests, we ask that you make a new reservation for the additional guests only. You will have multiple reservations, and we will join them together at check-in. ​ Kindly note that there must be available spots on your reservation date to add additional guests to your reservation. If we are already fully booked, then you cannot add additional guests. 1 spot = 1 PAX or 1 person. ​ Please make your reservation for the correct number of guests. If you think more people might join, please include them in your initial reservation. It is easier to minus guests from your group than to add, especially if we are fully booked. ​
-
Redeeming Gift CertificatesWhen redeeming gift certificates, the name of the reservation must match the name on the certificate. Gift Certificates cannot be sold or transferred. If the name on the certificate needs to be corrected, please let us know. Send us a picture or scan of the gift certificate after you book so we can credit it to your reservation. Please send it to: reservations@cascadesnaturepark.com

Social Distancing and Safety ProtocolsAll guests must also wear a face mask, and a face shield is highly encouraged. 1.5 Meter social distancing will be enforced. A mask will not be required while underwater swimming only. We will also be taking temperatures at our entrance. Guests will fill out a contact tracing form, liability waiver, and hands will be sprayed with alcohol. ​ We have a very large space, so all tables will have plenty of space between them. We disinfect all tables and chairs after each use. We also have a hand wash station for you to wash your hands frequently. ​ We will be limiting our capacity to 180 guests, which is less than 50% of our capacity. This is to ensure that everyone can have a great time with plenty of space to enjoy while also staying safe. ​ Tables and cottages cannot be moved together. We must follow capacity limits.
