We went overnight to Great Wolf Lodge! To be honest, I was hesitant about paying the money to stay there because I assumed we would spend the whole time in the toddler spray area. I was sooooo WRONG! We had an incredible time.
Our kids are maniacs and were willing to try everything that they were tall enough to ride. The boys went down some pretty big slides. See these yellow and red slides(below)...I'm pretty sure they went down those about a million times. The first time Peter went, he started at the top on his bottom and ended up head first, arms flailing, water flying...he stood up at them end and said, "AWESOME, let's go again." The wave pool was fun, and again I was shocked at how the boys were so brave and when a wave would go over their heads, they'd just stand up and look for the next one. Natalie loved the wave pool and the toddler pool...well, we all did. It was a blast, and she didn't mind getting splashed in the face or braving the kiddie-slides.
There are no pictures from our trip. I stole these shots from google.com. I did remember the camera, but it never came out of the bag. Keeping track of all 3 kids in a loud water park proved to be very consuming. Aaron and I are exhausted!
So, this is NOT a commercial for Great Wolf, but I will give my review. We had been told to expect horrible customer service, super expensive food, etc. We arrived at 1pm to go to the water park, knowing that we couldn't get a room until 4pm. We were given a room immediately at 1pm, and the gal at the desk figured out that she could save us $49 on our room...SCORE! We also took advantage of a $10 lunch deal that was for a large pizza, family size salad, breadsticks, and drinks. When we went to pick up our pizza, we had to wait 5 minutes, so they threw in some chocolate chip cookies. Every where we went the staff was friendly and very helpful. So, there it is...my plug for Great Wolf!
We will definitely go back. Maybe we'll even take a picture next time!
