Our stay at Great Wolf Lodge was packed with fun for the kids, who thoroughly enjoyed the indoor water park and various activities. The location inside the water park was a highlight, with something for everyone. However, we found the hotel quite crowded during our visit, which made it a bit overwhelming. Additionally, some of the facilities were showing their age, which could use a little refreshing.

Our trip to Great Wolf Lodge was a mixed bag. On one hand, the kids had a blast at the water park and enjoyed the MagiQuest activities, which made for a fun family experience. On the other hand, we faced issues with service that left us feeling let down, especially after several previously enjoyable stays. While the accommodations were fine, and the water park offered a lot of fun, the dining experience could use improvement, particularly around service and food availability.
