It opened in 1986 under the name Oasis Water Park; it was purchased by Cedar Fair and operated under the Knott's name from 2002 to 2013.

On August 14, 2013, Cedar Fair announced it had sold its Palm Springs Soak City to CNL Lifestyle Properties.

The park was closed and demolition began in 2019 for transformation into the Palm Springs Surf Club, which was forecasted to open in 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic pushed it to 2024.
