We were a family of 7. We reserved a family suite. The room did not have a microwave. They brought one and it didn't work. The pool area closed at 8 but check in isn't until 4. So 4 hours of availability is not enough time. The beds were so uncomfortable. The pillows felt like they had no stuffing. Did not sleep well at all. The hallways are an icebox. There is no reason for the air in the hallway to be that cold in a water park. Overall it was not fun and not comfortable. Even the kids said they don't want to stay there again.

My family has been going to this Great Wolf Lodge location at least once a year for 8 years. Although they continue to maintain the overall experience for our children, the lodging itself has gone down hill with no renovations during those 8 years. They are now charging $19 per night for parking and have removed microwaves from all of the guest rooms with one microwave located at the end of each hall with the ice machines. Our airconditioner leaked, the DISH service wasn't working on our TV. The patio table was broken. There was a large pink stain on the wall. There was a potato chip on one of the main stairwells when we arrived on Sunday and it was still there when we left on Wednesday. My point is what once felt like a DIsney type experience as deteriorated. Couple that with the blatant money grab of charging for parking when you have a dedicated lot for your guests and now a vacation kiosk in the lobby, we are more likely to move on to Kalahari. The entertainment staff is still great but everything is more like it was at Castaway Bay when we stopped going there.

This was our first stay at a Great Wolf Lodge and we were disappointed. The room was old (I’d expect some updates for the price), the sink didn’t drain, the tv remote didn’t work (neither did the one they replaced it with), the AC made an awful, loud rattling noise that made it hard to sleep, we found several dead mosquitos and spiders in the room, and there were stains and burn holes in the carpet. There is a large attached parking lot that they charge extra for guests to park in, and the cost of all the other extras are exorbitant, as well, including being allowed to stay in the waterpark after normal hours. I understand charging parking and extended hours for those who purchase a day pass, but those should be included for guests of the resort. I was also not a fan of their $100 per night credit hold (that cut into our available spending money) or the wristband keys, which you’re unable to remove for the duration of the stay. We expressed our experience to the front desk at checkout and were offered one free night to use within the next year. I said we likely wouldn’t be back, and the desk agent told me there wasn’t much else she could do since we booked through a third party (Expedia). I don’t normally complain, and my kids enjoyed their time which is what matters, but we will not return to Great Wolf Lodge.

Great Wolf Lodge is in decline. We paid over a thousand dollars for two nights. This did not include breakfast or parking. Both of these were separate charges. The water park closes at 8 pm. There is no pool for night swimming as is often found in other far less expensive places. Why pay more for so much less?
