               POWERS, DUTIES AND RIGHTS OF THE GUARANTEE TRUSTEE

      Section 3.1. Powers and Duties of the Guarantee Trustee.

            (a) This Guarantee Agreement shall be held by the Guarantee Trustee
for the benefit of the Holders, and the Guarantee Trustee shall not transfer
this Guarantee Agreement to any Person except a Holder exercising his or her
rights pursuant to Section 5.4(iv) or to a Successor Guarantee Trustee on
acceptance by such Successor Guarantee Trustee of its appointment to act as
Successor Guarantee Trustee hereunder. The right, title and interest of the
Guarantee Trustee, as such, hereunder shall automatically vest in any Successor
Guarantee Trustee, upon acceptance by such Successor Guarantee Trustee of its
appointment hereunder, and such vesting and cessation of title shall be
effective whether or not conveyancing documents have been executed and delivered
pursuant to the appointment of such Successor Guarantee Trustee.

            (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Guarantee Trustee shall enforce this Guarantee Agreement for the benefit of the
Holders.

            (c) The Guarantee Trustee, before the occurrence of any Event of
Default and after the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred,
shall be obligated to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Guarantee Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2.1), and no implied
covenants shall be read into this Guarantee Agreement against the Guarantee
Trustee. If an Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or waived
pursuant to Section 2.6), the Guarantee Trustee shall exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement, and use the same
degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own
affairs.

            (d) No provision of this Guarantee Agreement shall be construed to
relieve the Guarantee Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its
own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

                                        7

<PAGE>

                  (i) Prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default and after
the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default that may have occurred:

                        (A) the duties and obligations of the Guarantee Trustee
                  shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this
                  Guarantee Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2.1), and
                  the Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable except for the
                  performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically
                  set forth in this Guarantee Agreement (including pursuant to
                  Section 2.1); and

                        (B) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the
                  Guarantee Trustee, the Guarantee Trustee may conclusively
                  rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
                  the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or
                  opinions furnished to the Guarantee Trustee and conforming to
                  the requirements of this Guarantee Agreement; but in the case
                  of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision
                  hereof or of the Trust Indenture Act are specifically required
                  to be furnished to the Guarantee Trustee, the Guarantee
                  Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine
                  whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
                  Guarantee Agreement;

                  (ii) The Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable for any error
of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee
Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Guarantee Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts upon which such judgment was made;

                  (iii) The Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable with respect
to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of not less than a Majority in Liquidation
Amount of the Trust Preferred Securities relating to the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Guarantee Trustee,
or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Guarantee Trustee under this
Guarantee Agreement; and

                  (iv) No provision of this Guarantee Agreement shall require
the Guarantee Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers if the Guarantee Trustee shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability
is not assured to it under the terms of this Guarantee Agreement or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

            (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1:

conclusively rely upon an Officer's Certificate which, upon receipt of such
request from the Guarantee Trustee, shall be promptly delivered by the
Guarantor.

                  (iv) The Guarantee Trustee may consult with legal counsel, and
the advice or written opinion of such legal counsel with respect to legal
matters shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of
any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in good faith
and in accordance with such advice or opinion. Such legal counsel may be legal
counsel to the Guarantor or any of its Affiliates and may be one of its
employees. The Guarantee Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek
instructions concerning the administration of this Guarantee Agreement from any
court of competent jurisdiction.

                  (v) The Guarantee Trustee shall be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement at
the request or direction of any Holder, unless such Holder shall have provided
to the Guarantee Trustee such security and indemnity as would satisfy a
reasonable person in the position of the Guarantee Trustee, against the costs,
expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be
incurred by it in complying with such request or direction, including such
reasonable advances as may be requested by the Guarantee Trustee.

                  (vi) The Guarantee Trustee shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent,
order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
document, but the Guarantee Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further
inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit.

                  (vii) The Guarantee Trustee may execute any of the trusts or
powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through its agents or attorneys, and the Guarantee Trustee shall not be
responsible for any negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any such

with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action
hereunder, the Guarantee Trustee (A) may request instructions from the Holders,
(B) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action
until such instructions are received and (C) shall be fully protected in acting
in accordance with such instructions.

            (b) No provision of this Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed to
impose any duty or obligation on the Guarantee Trustee to perform any act or
acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it
in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Guarantee
Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law,
to perform any such act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or
obligation. No permissive power or authority available to the Guarantee Trustee
shall be construed to be a duty to act in accordance with such power and
authority.

      Section 3.3. Indemnity.

      The Guarantor agrees to indemnify the Guarantee Trustee for, and to hold
it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence,
willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Guarantee Trustee, arising

Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any

lien or charge on any Guarantee Payments as a result of any amount due to it
under this Guarantee Agreement.

      Section 3.4. Expenses.

      The Guarantor shall from time to time reimburse the Guarantee Trustee for
its expenses and costs (including reasonable attorneys' or agents' fees)
incurred in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE IV.

<PAGE>

corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the supervising or examining authority, then, for the
purposes of this Section and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act,
the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published.

            (b) If at any time the Guarantee Trustee shall cease to be eligible

subordinated basis as set forth in Article VI, to the Holders the Guarantee
Payments (without duplication of amounts theretofore paid by or on behalf of the
Issuer Trust), as and when due, regardless of any defense, right of set-off or
counterclaim which the Issuer Trust may have or assert, except the defense of

give prompt written notice to the Guarantee Trustee in the event it makes any
direct payment hereunder.

performance or observance by the Issuer Trust of any express or implied
agreement, covenant, term or condition relating to the Trust Preferred
Securities to be performed or observed by the Issuer Trust;

            (b) the extension of time for the payment by the Issuer Trust of all
or any portion of the Distributions (other than an extension of time for payment
of Distributions that results from the extension of any interest payment period
on the Junior Subordinated Debentures as so provided in the Indenture),
Redemption Price, Liquidation Distribution or any other sums payable under the
terms of the Trust Preferred Securities or the extension of time for the
performance of any other obligation under, arising out of, or in connection

            (c) any failure, omission, delay or lack of diligence on the part of
the Holders to enforce, assert or exercise any right, privilege, power or remedy
conferred on the Holders pursuant to the terms of the Trust Preferred
Securities, or any action on the part of the Issuer Trust granting indulgence or
extension of any kind;

            (d) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of

            (e) any invalidity of, or defect or deficiency in, the Trust
Preferred Securities;

            (f) the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed hereby
or hereby incurred; or

            (g) any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (other than
payment of the underlying obligation), it being the intent of this Section 5.3
that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional under any and all circumstances.

      There shall be no obligation of the Holders to give notice to, or obtain
the consent of, the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the
foregoing.

      Section 5.4. Rights of Holders.

      The Guarantor expressly acknowledges that: (i) this Guarantee Agreement
will be deposited with the Guarantee Trustee to be held for the benefit of the
Holders; (ii) the Guarantee Trustee has the right to enforce this Guarantee
Agreement on behalf of the Holders; (iii) the Holders of a Majority in
Liquidation Amount of the Trust Preferred Securities have the right to direct

any trust or power conferred upon the Guarantee Trustee under this Guarantee
Agreement; and (iv) any Holder may institute a legal proceeding directly against
the Guarantor to enforce its rights under this Guarantee Agreement, without
first instituting a legal proceeding against the Guarantee Trustee, the Issuer
Trust or any other Person.

collection. This Guarantee Agreement will not be discharged except by payment of
the Guarantee Payments in full (without duplication of amounts theretofore paid

     Section 5.6. Subrogation.

     The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights (if any) of the Holders
against the Issuer Trust in respect of any amounts paid to the Holders by the
Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement; provided, however, that the Guarantor
shall not (except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law) be
entitled to enforce or exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of
subrogation or any indemnity, reimbursement or other agreement, in all cases as
a result of payment under this Guarantee Agreement, at the time of any such
payment, any amounts are due and unpaid under this Guarantee Agreement or any
payments are due to the holders of Trust Preferred Securities under the Trust
Agreement. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the
preceding sentence, the Guarantor agrees to hold such amount in trust for the
Holders and to pay over such amount to the Holders.

     Section 5.7. Independent Obligations.

     The Guarantor acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are independent
of the obligations of the Issuer Trust with respect to the Trust Preferred
Securities and that the Guarantor shall be liable as principal and as debtor
hereunder to make Guarantee Payments pursuant to the terms of this Guarantee
Agreement notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in subsections
(a) through (g), inclusive, of Section 5.3 hereof.

Indenture with respect to the Junior Subordinated Debentures, and the provisions
of Article XIII of the Indenture will apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. The obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder do not constitute Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor.

     Section 6.2. Pari Passu Guarantees.

     The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement shall rank
pari passu with any similar guarantee agreements issued by the Guarantor on
behalf of the holders of preferred or trust preferred securities issued by the
Issuer Trust and with any other security, guarantee or other obligation that is
expressly stated to rank pari passu with the obligations of the Guarantor under
this Guarantee Agreement.

     Section 7.1. Termination.

     This Guarantee Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect upon (i) full payment of the Redemption Price of all Trust Preferred
Securities, (ii) the distribution of Junior Subordinated Debentures to the
Holders in exchange for all of the Trust Preferred Securities or (iii) full
payment of the amounts payable in accordance with Article IX of the Trust

with respect to Trust Preferred Securities or this Guarantee Agreement.

     This GUARANTEE AGREEMENT, dated as of June __, 2006 is executed and
delivered by GREAT WOLF RESORTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Guarantor")
having its principal office at 122 West Washington Avenue, Madison, WI 53703,
for the benefit of the Holders (as defined herein) from time to time of the
Common Securities (as defined herein) of GW Capital Trust II, a Delaware
statutory trust (the "Issuer Trust").

     WHEREAS, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust (the
"Trust Agreement"), dated as of June __, 2006, among Great Wolf Resorts, Inc.,
as Sponsor, Wilmington Trust Company, as Property Trustee (the "Property
Trustee"), Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware Trustee (the "Delaware
Trustee") (collectively, the "Issuer Trustees"), two individuals selected by the
holders of the Common Securities to act as administrative trustees with respect
to the Issuer Trust and the Holders from time to time of undivided beneficial
ownership interests in the assets of the Issuer Trust, the Issuer Trust is
issuing $__ aggregate liquidation amount of its __% Common Securities,
liquidation amount $25 per common security (the "Common Securities") [(including
$___ in aggregate liquidation amount of additional Common Securities being
issued pursuant to an over-allotment option granted to the underwriters of the
trust preferred securities of the Trust)], representing common undivided
beneficial ownership interests in the assets of the Issuer Trust and having the
terms set forth in the Trust Agreement;

     WHEREAS, as incentive for the Holders to purchase the Common Securities,
the Guarantor desires irrevocably and unconditionally to agree, to the extent
set forth herein, to pay to the Holders of the Common Securities the Guarantee
Payments (as defined herein) and to make certain other payments on the terms and
conditions set forth herein; and

     WHEREAS, the Guarantor is also executing and delivering a guarantee
agreement (the "Trust Preferred Securities Guarantee Agreement") for the benefit
of the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities (as defined in the Trust
Agreement) in substantially identical terms to this Common Securities Guarantee
Agreement, except that if any Event of Default (as defined in the Trust
Agreement) resulting from a Debenture Default has occurred and is continuing,
the rights of Holders of the Common Securities to receive Guarantee Payments
under this Common Securities Guarantee Agreement are subordinated to the rights
of holders of Trust Preferred Securities to receive Guarantee Payments under the
Trust Preferred Securities Guarantee Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the purchase of the Common Securities
by each Holder, which purchase the Guarantor hereby acknowledges shall benefit
the Guarantor, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Guarantor executes
and delivers this Guarantee Agreement for the benefit of the Holders from time
to time of the Common Securities.

                                   DEFINITIONS

     Section 1.1. Definitions.

     As used in this Guarantee Agreement, the terms set forth below shall,
unless the context otherwise requires, have the following meanings. Capitalized
terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to
such terms in the Trust Agreement as in effect on the date hereof.

     "Guarantee Payments" means the following payments or distributions, without
duplication, with respect to the Common Securities, to the extent not paid or
made by or on behalf of the Issuer Trust: (i) any accumulated and unpaid
Distributions required to be paid on the Common Securities, to the extent the
Issuer Trust shall have funds on hand available therefor at such time, (ii) the
Redemption Price, with respect to the Common Securities called for redemption by
the Issuer Trust, to the extent that the Issuer Trust shall have funds on hand
available therefor at such time, and (iii) upon a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, winding-up or liquidation of the Issuer Trust, unless Junior
Subordinated Debentures are distributed to the Holders, the lesser of (a) the
aggregate of the liquidation amount and all accumulated and unpaid Distributions
to but excluding the date of payment, to the extent that the Issuer Trust shall
have funds on hand available therefor at such time, and (b) the amount of assets
of the Issuer Trust remaining available for distribution to Holders on
liquidation of the Issuer Trust (in either case, the "Liquidation
Distribution"). If any Event of Default resulting from a Debenture Default has
occurred and is continuing, no Guarantee Payments with respect to the Common
Securities shall be made until holders of Trust Preferred Securities shall be
paid in full the Guarantee Payments to which they are entitled under the Trust
Preferred Securities Guarantee Agreement.

     "Holder" means any holder, as registered on the books and records of the
Issuer Trust, of any Common Securities.

                                   ARTICLE II

     The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to pay in full, on a
subordinated basis as set forth in Article III, to the Holders the Guarantee
Payments (without duplication of amounts theretofore paid by or on behalf of the
Issuer Trust), as and when due, regardless of any defense, right of set-off or
counterclaim which the Issuer Trust may have or assert, except the defense of
payment. The Guarantor's obligation to make a Guarantee Payment may be satisfied
by direct payment of the required amounts by the Guarantor to the Holders or by
causing the

                                       2
<PAGE>

Issuer Trust to pay such amounts to the Holders. The Guarantor shall give prompt
written notice to the Guarantee Trustee in the event it makes any direct payment
hereunder.

     Section 2.2. Waiver of Notice and Demand.

     The Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of the Guarantee Agreement
and of any liability to which it applies or may apply, presentment, demand for
payment, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer Trust or any
other Person before proceeding against the Guarantor, protest, notice of
nonpayment, notice of dishonor, notice of redemption and all other notices and
demands.

     Section 2.3. Obligations Not Affected.

     The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of the Guarantor under
this Guarantee Agreement shall in no way be affected or impaired by reason of
the happening from time to time of any of the following:

          (a) the release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise, of the
performance or observance by the Issuer Trust of any express or implied
agreement, covenant, term or condition relating to the Common Securities to be
performed or observed by the Issuer Trust;

          (b) the extension of time for the payment by the Issuer Trust of all
or any portion of the Distributions (other than an extension of time for payment
of Distributions that results from the extension of any interest payment period
on the Junior Subordinated Debentures as so provided in the Indenture),
Redemption Price, Liquidation Distribution or any other sums payable under the
terms of the Common Securities or the extension of time for the performance of
any other obligation under, arising out of, or in connection with, the Common
Securities;

          (c) any failure, omission, delay or lack of diligence on the part of
the Holders to enforce, assert or exercise any right, privilege, power or remedy
conferred on the Holders pursuant to the terms of the Common Securities, or any
action on the part of the Issuer Trust granting indulgence or extension of any
kind;

          (d) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of any
collateral, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of
creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of debt of,
or other similar proceedings affecting, the Issuer Trust or any of the assets of
the Issuer Trust;

          (e) any invalidity of, or defect or deficiency in, the Common
Securities;

          (f) the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed hereby
or hereby incurred; or

          (g) any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute
a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (other than payment of
the underlying obligation), it being the intent of this Section 2.3 that the
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under
any and all circumstances.

                                       3
<PAGE>

     There shall be no obligation of the Holders to give notice to, or obtain
the consent of, the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the
foregoing.

     Section 2.4. Rights of Holders.

     The Guarantor expressly acknowledges that: (i) this Guarantee Agreement
will be for the benefit of the Holders; (ii) the Holders of a Majority in
Liquidation Amount of the Common Securities have the right to direct the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available in
respect of this Guarantee Agreement or exercising any trust or power conferred
under this Guarantee Agreement; and (iii) any Holder may institute a legal
proceeding directly against the Guarantor to enforce its rights under this
Guarantee Agreement, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the
Issuer Trust or any other Person.

     Section 2.5. Guarantee of Payment.

     This Guarantee Agreement creates a guarantee of payment and not of
collection. This Guarantee Agreement will not be discharged except by payment of
the Guarantee Payments in full (without duplication of amounts theretofore paid
by the Issuer Trust) or upon the distribution of Junior Subordinated Debentures
to Holders as provided in the Trust Agreement.

     Section 2.6. Subrogation.

     The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights (if any) of the Holders
against the Issuer Trust in respect of any amounts paid to the Holders by the
Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement; provided, however, that the Guarantor
shall not (except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law) be
entitled to enforce or exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of
subrogation or any indemnity, reimbursement or other agreement, in all cases as
a result of payment under this Guarantee Agreement, at the time of any such
payment, any amounts are due and unpaid under this Guarantee Agreement or any
payments are due to the holders of Trust Preferred Securities under the Trust
Agreement. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the
preceding sentence, the Guarantor agrees to hold such amount in trust for the
Holders and to pay over such amount to the Holders.

     Section 2.7. Independent Obligations.

     The Guarantor acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are independent
of the obligations of the Issuer Trust with respect to the Common Securities and
that the Guarantor shall be liable as principal and as debtor hereunder to make
Guarantee Payments pursuant to the terms of this Guarantee Agreement
notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in subsections (a)
through (g), inclusive, of Section 2.3 hereof.

     Section 3.1. Subordination.

     This Guarantee Agreement will constitute an unsecured obligation of the
Guarantor and will rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Senior
Indebtedness of the Guarantor to the extent and in the manner set forth in the
Indenture with respect to the Junior Subordinated Debentures, and the provisions
of Article XIII of the Indenture will apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. The obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder do not constitute Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor.

     Section 3.2. Pari Passu Guarantees.

     The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement shall rank
pari passu with any similar guarantee agreements issued by the Guarantor on
behalf of the holders of common securities issued by the Issuer Trust and with
any other security, guarantee or other obligation that is expressly stated to
rank pari passu with the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee
Agreement.

     Section 4.1. Termination.

     This Guarantee Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect upon (i) full payment of the Redemption Price of all Common Securities,
(ii) the distribution of Junior Subordinated Debentures to the Holders in
exchange for all of the Common Securities or (iii) full payment of the amounts
payable in accordance with Article IX of the Trust Agreement upon liquidation of
the Issuer Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guarantee Agreement will
continue to be effective or will be reinstated, as the case maybe, if at any
time any Holder is required to repay any sums paid with respect to Common
Securities or this Guarantee Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE V
