Thanks to Groupon I have been able to take my daughter to Great Wolf Lodge once a year for the past 3 years. This past time we had a one night stay and added on the Wolf Pass which includes access to the majority of the activities (bowling, mini-golf, challenge course, ice cream, etc). We had a fun time and I’m sure we will be back next year.

Great KickOff to Summer We had a Great experience & will absolutely be back! We stayed June 3rd-5th (Tuesday to Thursday) We arrived around 1pm since we could use the waterpark at opening, room checkin wasn't until 4 but it was ready when we arrived & we were allowed to go up and get ready before heading to the waterpark Nicole checked us in and was Absolutely Amazing! She was so kind & helpful. My son is scared of elevators, but the only rooms were on floor 4+, so she gave him a present and Rode The Elevators Up With Us!! She made sure that he felt safe & excited to be here and honestly, how do you go more above & beyond than that?! The waterpark was clean & not too crowded until Thursday (which my son then skipped the waterpark, but we did the other activities) We booked on an awesome coupon so it didn't blow us out of the water price wise, I would in hindsight buy the breakfast buffet for at least one day before checking in next time though. You can purchase the buffet in the morning but it costs significantly more than if you had bought it before arrive. Hungry Moose is less than 15mins away though and sooooo good. My son made sure he became a Master Magi before with left on the Magiquest which gets them a lot of exercise lol Bowling was super fun, I liked the hand held wooden balls, but the equipment did have several issues, not enough to kill the vibe though. I tried the ropes course, chickened out half way through and had to be rescued, but the staff was understanding & patients I got back to the base. We skipped the arcade. Pizza was good, tasted yum and cost less than Round Table so I don't understand tha complaints. I felt like everything, outside of the Wands maybe, was reasonably priced - for California lol All in all, loved it & will be back next summer!!

Not worth the expense and safety issues The service at Great Wolf has continued to go down hill. We waited over 20 minutes to check in as there were only two people at the front desk. When we arrived to our room I found hair on the floor and tub of the bathroom and odd stuff on the walls that I cleaned off. And they don't clean the rooms now during your stay. The food overall is really unhealthy and the quality doesn't match the prices of the stay. Usually, I just ignore all this because my child is having a great time and I make the most of it. But we learned during this last trip that security is pretty horrible and we will not return. We paid for lane at the bowling alley and our game began having issues, one of the players were no longer on the screen. Apparently the software is super old and hasn't been updated in 20 years. My child stuck around the lane while I talked to staff to reset the game. When I returned a family took over the lane without saying anything to my son. The mom began yelling at me not to talk to her daughter who looked about 3 or 4 years old while she played in our lane and the father passed her balls to throw. I told her I didn't want to talk to her daughter but to her. I told her that we were still playing a game and she went ballistic. She said there were no pins and I explained that the game was being reset for us. She then got in my face and I told her to step away from me. She then repeatedly told my son and I to, "shut the f*ck up!" I told her to stop using that language but she continued. I asked her husband to stop and he began to talk to me in the same way. I then went to staff and asked them to call security. At that point the family fled. Long story short, security said that they found the family. At first they said they had no tolerance for that behavior but then said they didn't make them leave because they were leaving anyway. SECURITY THEN SAID THE INCIDENT WAS OUR FAULT. The family claimed they were defending their daughter as they didn't like how I talked to her and security said that is why we were spoken to in that manner and I was arguing back with them. I said no, my son and I never spoke to the daughter and I wasn't arguing but asking them to stop verbally abusing us. The more I think about what happened I believe this family knew exactly what they were doing. Their extreme behavior was an effort to scare us into abandoning our paid bowling lane. Not once did security explain why they family had taken over the lane and refused to give it back. Security lacked the basic function of fact finding. There was also video that showed that my son and I did not speak or go near their daughter. This incident left us feeling that GW is not a safe environment and we won't return anytime soon.

Wish I could give 0 stars - HORRIBLE!!!! I stayed at Great Wolf Lodge, and I have to say, this was one of the worst hotel experiences I've ever had. First of all, the check-in process was a nightmare. I waited in line for an hour just to change the card on file, and even though I went in with cash, I was told they are a cashless establishment—which is fine, but if that's the case, changing a card should have been simple and quick. Despite the fact that families are spending at least $500 per visit, they only had two people checking guests in, and the line was literally out the door. Meanwhile, other staff members were just walking around, and the manager was chatting away with guests instead of helping with the situation. They have these kiosks that are supposed to let you check in using a QR code, but that's completely misleading. You still have to wait in line for someone to check you in. To make things worse, when you finally get to the front, they start upselling you on pass upgrades and other extras, making the check-in process even slower. It’s clear they are seriously understaffed and unorganized. I think it’s ridiculous to make families wait 30 minutes to an hour to check in, especially with kids in tow. Once we got to our room, things went from bad to worse. We walked in and found something on one of the beds—**there was literal feces on the sheets and comforter**. It was absolutely disgusting. We immediately called to have it changed, but the fact that something like that was even possible is beyond unacceptable. For a place where you're paying over $400 a night, you would expect much higher cleanliness standards. If I could give zero stars, I would. To add insult to injury, I lost my ID, which fell out of my waterproof phone case. I immediately reported it, but I was told it wasn’t "serious enough" to check the cameras. Really? Losing an ID isn’t serious when you're from out of state and need it to drive back? They have a big lost-and-found area, but they wouldn't even look unless I filled out their lost-and-found form with exact details. I had just lost it 15 minutes prior, and it still didn’t seem to be a priority for them. The staff’s lack of urgency and attention to detail was maddening. They had all my information on file from check-in, yet still couldn’t help locate my ID without jumping through a bunch of hoops. If you're considering bringing valuable or important items with you to this hotel, **don’t**—because if you lose anything, they won't lift a finger to help you find it unless you fill out all the specific details, and even then, it’s a toss-up. In short, this place is **not worth the money**. Between the painfully slow check-in process, the lack of cleanliness, and the unhelpful staff, my family’s experience at Great Wolf Lodge was one I wouldn't wish on anyone. We spent over $400 for a disgusting, poorly managed stay. If you’re thinking about staying here, I’d strongly recommend you reconsider.
