Back from Great Wolf Lodge with Pics, A review and a Thank You!
First off, my family and I must thank Summerrluvv for posting that awesome discount code. We had soooooooooo much fun at Great Wolf. No problems at ALL checking in. They asked for ID, we said we didn't have it, they said fine.
The room was AWESOME! Cathedral ceilings, 2 King beds, separate seating area. Room had a cofee maker with necessities, large fridge (bigger than a mini), microwave , hair dryer, TV, balcony, AC, small but VERY CLEAN bathroom. VERY nice!
The water park was awesome! So much to do for all ages. The pools had zero-grade entry which made it perfect for the little ones. The slides were great. VERY clean. Only thing is that I had a HARD time finding a diaper changing station. Otherwise...LOVED it! I didn't take many pics in the actual water park because it is seriously wet EVERYWHERE. Kids spray you from above...no one stays dry! Here are some pics from through a window.
They had a GREAT arcade too:
We went to the Cub Club (a classroom) and made some crafts and I performed a puppet show for my kids and some others :
Soooo adorable- Bedtime story by the fireplace and animated show at the clock tower:
And my ABSOLUTE favorite thing...MagiQuest. Nicholas and I had such an AWESOME time with this. You buy a wand and have it activated (about $30). You get a booklet and go on Quests finding hidden objects around the hotel. We completed 6 Quests. I swear...if it wasn't that Nicholas pooped out on me both nights, I would have finished that whole thing myself. If you have older ones (I'd say 5 years old and over), you HAVE to do this!
All in all, it really was a great trip. I highly recommend it. It was only about 2 hours away in the Poconos. We never really ate in the hotel because we heard the food wasn't good there, but there are tons of places nearby. We went to Chilis, Friendly's, Mc Donald's, and New York Pizza and Pasta (that one wasn't so good....not NEARLY like New York- ).
But it was so much fun. Thank you Summerrluvv for the discount code.
For anyone going....have a GREAT time!

Welcome back Val!!! I love all the pictures! It looks like it is just the coolest place for everyone! Now I am seriously interested in going when Lucas is a little older and can really enjoy.
And how cute are your little men
So happy that you had such a great time!

This place is really good. I live right by there like 10 minutes away. Only thing is is that u have to stay there to utilize the amenities. But its so cool inside. I love the game room.
