    The Pilgrim Cove pool at the John Carver Inn combines Plymouth history with the fun of a waterpark. An 80-foot covered slide, which kept my boys busy for HOURS, winds through a replica of the Mayflower, dropping sliders into a splash zone that is part of the larger pool but roped off to keep everyone safe. The pool itself offers plenty of fun for all, including a shallow area for the littles. The elevated hot tub, in a replica of Plymouth Rock, provides some warmth and relaxation for the grown-ups. Day passes are available to the public based on availability.
