Hi, my name is Elijah. I’m 13 years old, and I absolutely love this place!!!! I’ve been here sooooooo many times!!! Even before they changed it to great wolf lodge
Extensive review of the water park, thank you!!! I like to be able to give my toddler a heads up on what we’re doing and this was the perfect preview for our visit.
Great Review. Yup, you can say that this Great Wolf Lodge isn't as elaborate as the others in the chain due to it's second hand history, but you can't beat the relative value it offers. My family took quite a few weekday vacations there from Winnipeg where the hotel room paid for itself with the value of park passes for 6 people!
I've never done any of these indoor waterparks (with one modest exception), and I don't really plan on doing any in the future, but it's interesting to see the reports on them. During cold months, a reasonably priced hotel with an indoor pool and hot tub is good enough for me. I do love outdoor waterparks. The one at Valleyfair was nice. I didn't spend much time in there, but I still got on a lot of their body & regular tube slides, as lines were very reasonable, far shorter than the coasters' lines in the afternoon.
We just stayed there. They slides were really fast. Great lazy river. The Flow rider was cool. The bowling alley was really fun. My grandkids did the rock climbing and the ropes course. The spinning log on the ropes course made it challenging. The breakfast was top notch. Overall very expensive but very fun.
Thank you for this great review! I went to this waterpark all the time as a kid but wanted to see if it was what i remembered now that I'm teenager and since great wolf lodge owns it now, and this video was very helpful!
I presume that young lady I have seen in a few videos now is your fiance? The reason I say that is because the way you smile uncontrollably, and even giggle around her, is clearly so natural that she obviously makes you very happy. I wish you a very long, fruitful, healthy and happy life together :)
Just booked Sunday July 24 - Tuesday July 26th for me, my wife, and my just turned 5 today daughter. Looking forward to it! Maybe I missed it but what is the towel situation? I've also seen that you can get into the waterpark at 1pm day of checkin (well before checkin time)?
When you talk pricing, keep in mind it changes substantially depending how many guests come with you. We are going soon and compared 2 quantities of guests. Adding 2 extra guests cost an extra 100.00 for the room for one night. One good thing about the cost of Great Wolf Lodge is you get access to it all day long BOTH days even if you only stay for one night.
It IS very unique and has a niche' market. I'm sure, they will step UP their game to compete. Indoor parks are an interesting "breed" of parks. So many have bitten the dust. The industry has really changed. Look at the "turnstiles" No rotating arms. I saw this system @ IAAPA Expo years ago. I remember when we had to "manually" flip it when we "style jumpers" or, we'd make the rider go back the proper way. We did a LOT for that $3.35 per hour. LOL! If you explained "Y" it was important to be counted, it sort of made sense to the delinquent. Great overview of GWM.
Been to the indoor park at Edmonton (Alberta, Canada) Mall, but was warned to not go in the water by a lifelong resident there due to constant closures of...bacteria-laden water due to the humidity in the place. Have you heard about this with other parks? My experience was 2009, so maybe things have...cleaned up a bit since then.
@@CanobieCoaster It's visually stunning too. Galaxyland was the reason we went (and got a painful backward ride on Mindbender - but worth every second). Thx for the ❤ and comment. You and your newly met buddy Chris are the top 2 coaster tubers imo. Keep up the great work and travels!
"Have you heard about this with other parks?" Yes, kind of. Look into abandoned indoor water parks and your will find stories of death an injuries due to waterborne pathogens.
If for some odd reason you find yourself in traverse city michigain. There’s a great wolf lodge they only have 3 adult slides. 5 total and none are any good from what I remember. It’s been like 5 years but I have a good memory. The pancake restaurant across the street was better than the resort
The reason they’re painted two different colors is because they were painted all blue but then the paint kinda faded to green😂 but gwl really did a lot of work to this park like renovating the top otter run slide adding lights and sound to river canyon run and even changing the tube slides exit from a runout to a full pool
I wish the upper level otter run went down all the way to the bottom that would be one of the most intense indoor waterslides with how tall and fast it goes
Ok I have some not so good things that happened to us during our stay we got a nice sized room a really nice TV but the channels were mixed up soooo much but they did have RU-vid and there was also mysterious charges on our credits and we got charged.$300 for a package that costed $200 but I have to admit it was a very very fun stay
@@upsidedown_ That is a normal price here in the US, but there are usually discounts to be had. Typically only chumps pay "full price" for any theme/water park. But with Great wolf lodge, it's also about crowd control for the hotel guests.
I personally prefer the Great Wolf Lodge in Wisconsin Dells over this one but it should be noted I've only been to that one and this one. By the way I've never seen them close the waterslides for a safety break at all so that could be something new however the time you mentioned them occurring in this video is usually around the time I've had lunch there so maybe they have and I've never noticed.🤔
