text: We have spent the last two thanksgivings at Great Wolf Lodge for our yr old daughter She loves the magi quests and the stuff she gets from the Pup Pass nnWater Park geared toward little ones but the slides are well done and fun for all ages The main water park floor surface is slick our daughter slipped and banged the back of her head pretty bad Seconds later we had a manager safety person and lifeguard attend us She is ok but had a helluva knot on the back of her head for days The water park air and water temp is on the chilly side enough to where we stayed cold the whole time we were there We kept our sweaters on the whole time when we were not in the water When you are in the water its not so bad but you spend a lot of time in lines or walking from one thing to another nnThe Hotel the rooms are oddly huge and overall it has kind of an institutional feel to it However it is exceptionally clean It seems like a small point but it was very annoying there was no hair conditioner in the bathroom showers Our hair got super freaked out from the chlorinated waterpark water There was no conditioner for sale in the gift shop nnThe overall feeling I got from the chilly water and lack of conditioner was they run tight margins and do not splurge for the guests There is no limitless amount of piping hot water in the showers it gets warm but not quite hot All in all I could feel the impersonal nature of a PL statement during our stay nnHowever all the workers we encountered were very nice nnThe animatronic show in the lobby I AM GOING TO is on the bizarre side but all the kids seemed to enjoy it The first time we arrived the show was going on and I was worried it was some religious weirdness The desk clerk assured me they were secular and it was a nature theme There is a strange chemical odor by the animatronic show my wife speculated it was pine scent to make the trees seem real That last part is just me being overly nitpicky For the most part we had a great time and more importantly my daughter had a FABULOUS time
