We were very very impressed with our room! It had recently been remodeled and had new beds & furniture. The mattresses were super comfy! I think they may have been some sort of memory foam? The guest service was super fast and very friendly. Our sofa bed, which was brand new, had some sort of manufacturing defect and wouldn't open... More

We went to the Great Wolf Lodge as a vacation and extended anniversary get away. We wanted a place were we could relax and our 21mth old could have fun, excitement, and wonder. The Lodge was just the right place for that. A few things that we ran into was that there was only room service while the restaurant was... More

Our daughter was married at GWL and I have to share that many of the guests questioned the choice of this venue for a wedding and reception. Boy were they surprised! The wedding was held outside in a wedding tent with the reception being held in the white pine ballroom. The plated dinners were awesome as was the serrvice. The... More

Spring break prices are almost offensively high. At almost $400/night we could have stayed almost anywhere. Then again, the slides are fun for the kids, the facility is expertly managed (service was great!) and the lifeguards are paying strict attention (something to which I pay keen attention). It was clean, in good shape and everything was great. The price is... More

Our family of 4 stayed here overnight for a quick getaway. Long line at check-in, but they moved us through pretty quick. We had chosen to upgrade if available when I reserved online, so we were given a 'wolf den': queen bed with separate bunk bed area for the kids. There was also a pull-out couch, which my 12-year old... More

We have stayed at this resort several times a year for the past 4-5 years. It is consistently excellent. They leave no detail unaccounted for when thinking about kids. Our kids are now 8 and 10 and have absolutely wonderful memories of the GWL. The water park has something for every age group. The restaurants serve quality food at a... More

We decided to take the kids to another waterpark this year since the last park fell way short of our expectations. Having been to this one already, we knew it would be a great time and we were not at all let down. We went after the spring break rush and saved a fortune so we could enjoy other aspects.... More

Very expensive for what you get. They do not tell you whether it is on line, when booking or if you call the lodge for information before showing up, that the outdoor facility may close be closed "for financial" reasons depending on the day. 82 degrees outside and the outdoor pool is closed. Really? Unless you ask that specific question..... More

Took my 5 year old and 3 year old here for spring break. Very expensive during spring break! Its 150.00 less now than it was a week ago when we stayed. We stayed in a Wolf Den. Cute set up with bunk beds for the kids nice little balcony. Bring your own pillows though. Sat down on our bed and... More
