The Ultimate Checklist for Your Cove Birthday Party

Throwing a birthday party? Hosting it at The Cove at The Lakefront® makes it easier and more fun. Our water‑park parties are legendary—and this checklist will walk you through every step to make it a splash!

Step 1: Pick Your Perfect Party Package

Choose the setup that fits your crew and vibe. We offer four awesome packages tailored to different groups .

Package Name Included Guests Pizzas Beverages Extras
Surf’s Up 30 6 30 Full bonus perks
Big Wave 25 5 25 Great group fun
Little Wave 20 4 20 Smaller crew
Team Tidal Wave™ 30 6 30

Each package includes admission for included guests—but any extra attendees are just $10 each.

Step 2: Lock in Your Date and Time Slot

Pick your party slot based on season (summer or off‑season schedules vary) Busy weekends fill up fast, so book early by calling 214‑618‑2047 or submitting the interest form.

Step 3: Decide on Decorations & Extras

Want balloons, themed tableware, or a cake? You’re welcome to bring them—just know that decor is only allowed inside the party room, not in cabanas, on patios, or the mezzanine.

Step 4: Plan the Menu

All packages come with pizzas and drinks per guest count. You can add extras like Dippin’ Dots, FlowRider time, or more pizza and beverages.

Step 5: Send Out Invites

Let guests know the essentials: party date, time, location (417 Lakefront Drive, Little Elm, TX), what to bring (swimsuits, towels, etc.), and a teaser about the water-packed fun.

Step 6: Get Ready Day-Of

Check the weather (we’re climate‑controlled, so rain is no problem) and pack your swim gear. We’ll handle setup, just arrive 15 minutes early to check in and get settled.

Step 7: Party Time!

Slides, swimming, eating, laughing and that’s how memories are made. Relax, have fun, and let the good times roll.
