A lot of water =
Standard English, sounds more correct.
“There is a lot of water at the water park”
Lots of water =
Colloquialism, a spoken form usually used to exaggerate the fact that a huge quantity of a given thing exists, not formally correct.
“There’s lots of water at the water park”

They are exactly the same when used as the quantity of a noun.
I have lots of friends.
I have a lot a friends.
However, typically only 'a lot' is used to modify a verb.
I talk a lot.
NOT I talk lots.
They travel a lot.
NOT they travel lots.

Sebas gave a good answer. Not much of a difference, except „lots of“ is more colloquial, non-standard speech, but many people use it everyday.
