It looks more like a theme park than a home.

But this huge waterpark in the Nevada desert is in fact the private pool of an outrageous mansion near Boulder City.

A lazy river meanders round the backyard, taking swimmers past features such as a 20-foot diving pool and a cobblestone-lined water slide.

And once the residents have worn themselves out, they can relax in a secret grotto hidden behind a waterfall or take a stool at the old-West saloon.

Yet however successful the owner was in creating an outlandish backyard, it seems their other businesses were not as fortunate - the home has been foreclosed and is on the market for $3,000,000.

For the prospective buyers who are not interested in splashing around in the crystal-blue pools or stealing away to a secret waterfall grotto, there is still plenty of fun to be had as the property  features a tennis court and two putting greens, AOL Real Estate reported.

The house is 9,245 square feet sitting on 1.5 acres of land with six bedrooms, seven bathrooms covered in marble, two family rooms and large living spaces, including a dining room that sits 10.

According to the listing, the property features ‘Disneyesque’ finishes and strong attention to detail.

The estate also has a garage that can fit more than five vehicles, multiple fireplaces, a sprawling wood-paneled library, an in-house fitness center, a wine cellar and even a private elevator.

While the identity of the luxury home’s previous owners has not been revealed, it is known that the estate was built in 2004.
