Creator's Tips & Advice
✓Avoid hot tubs if you are not the first people in, as they can be crowded and less clean.
✓Reserve carousel shows on the first day via the app or box office, as they do not sell out.
✓Enforce chair policies fairly, such as allowing a one-hour reservation, to prevent conflicts.
