I like that all the kids were safe and having a good time. The environment was friendly and clean. I wish that things were more affordable. Everything is over priced
I think it was nice that they had multiple birthday packages.
Nice clean room with lots of towels
The kids enjoyed filling cups at the candy store, and the staff was really friendly and helpful both times we visited

Excessive charges but the grandkids loved it!

We took our grandkids to Great Wolf Lodge and had a great time. Unfortunately, we were charged for parking even though we didn't have a vehicle. We were also charged for towels even though we returned them, and checked them in with the attendant (which involves tapping your wristband).

Terrible check in process.

Check in was a complete mess. We waited for exactly one hour in a line that was unbearably long with a toddler.
