Tree fort and deck by Riverblast
If you’re looking for a quick spot to cool off, the Tree Fort and deck by Tom and Huck's is a must-visit. This tree house and deck are located along Riverblast and both have water cannons so you can soak the riders on the passing boats, and they can return fire from their boats.
