Can you do Great Wolf Lodge in one night?

We really would like to plan a trip here but are also going to Disney in August so we cant take any time from work - nor do we want to spend $1000 on a weekend.

SO is it worth driving up saturday, staying the one night the drive home sunday afternoon? Would saturday afternoon and sunday morning be enough time to make it worth the money? My kids are 2 & 4

I don't think it's worth it since their Saturday nights are $$$$$.

We just did this but with a late checkout (60$ extra). Got there early, went into water park at 1 (used lockers). Stayed in water park many hrs and had lunch, got our room at 4pm, then got pizza for dinner. Saw the 8pm show, hung out in arcade for about 2 hrs. Woke up early next day and went in water park at 9am. Had lunch there. Showered then went to Scoops Kid Spa. Had ice cream, went shopping, etc then checked out at 2pm. It was fine. We didn't have time for magic quest but thats really for older kids so you won't be missing that. Next time we will do Magic Quest. If you only have one night, it's worth it and doable. Plus with kids your kids' age, you can't do much of the rides with them anyway.

One night is enough IMO. When we go we only book 1 night. WE get there early, we have gotten there at 12 and they have let us use the water park already. The second day we do the water park for a bit, then change, head to mini bowling and then leave.

We went for one night and thought it was plenty. We are not big Great Wolf fans. The waterpark was ok. The kids had fun but we will probably never go back.

One night was enough for me. We didnt go on a weekend though. We got there around noon, and stayed till mid afternoon the next day. My kids loved it but I don't think I could stay there two nights in a row. I definitely don't think it is worth what they charge on the weekends.

Exactly, one night would be fine during the week, and I would do that. I would never do 1 night on the weekend. $250 weeknight vs. $500+++ a night on the weekend, def. wouldn't do a weekend!

One night is ENOUGH!!!!! We do it all the time.
We get there in the morning and use the water park all day, and when you check out the next day we put our bags in the car and you are allowed to use the park.

Same for us..we did it for 2 nights and we went with a big group of people and we all felt the same way.

I've done both one night and two nights. It's definitely doable as a one night stay.

Definitely one night is fine. We did a Friday night.
