![]() ![]() We were having just way too much fun….APRIL FOOLS! We had Dunkin Donuts for breakfast. We couldn’t wait for a full day.ĭay #2- On Wednesday, April 1st, we decided to go home. ![]() Everyone was tuckered out and slept well. Hubby and our oldest daughter stayed behind in the room. Wow, what a great first day. Oliver made his appearance also… ) I headed over to Dunkin Donuts and got me a Vanilla Chai Latte at that time. All of the kiddies in the lodge get to come down in their jammies and listen to a staff member read a story about Oliver the Wolf, etc. We went back into the waterpark for a little longer then headed to the lobby for 8pm story time. Those were purchased from the Bear Essentials Swim Shop where we also ended up getting some flip-flops for the waterpark. The girls ended up getting matching stuffed wolves with Great Wolf Lodge stamped on the rear. They say “Great Wolf Lodge” right on them. I spotted some cute pajamas that hubby ended up buying for me.

Present your card and pick out toys and candy that adds up to that amount. When you are ready to tally up your tickets, just stick your paw pass through the ticket counter machine and they put the balance on the card. Let’s just say we went through a few Paw Pass cards haha. I love how you can pay for a “Paw Pass.” You put whatever amount you wish on it and swipe your card for each game until your paw points are gone. Shortly after, we hung out in the Northern Lights Arcade. Parents are still required to supervise their child, but having an extra set of eyes with a ton of people in one place is very helpful.Īfter spending a few hours in Great Wolf Lodge waterpark, we ate dinner at Camp Critter Bar & Grille within the lodge. You will see them stationed at each attraction constantly observing and scanning, ready for any water related emergency. The waterpark is filled with trained and dedicated lifeguards. Each waterpark attraction gave the suggested or required height which was helpful for each girl. They measured how tall all three girls were and received a color coded band accordingly. When we walked in we felt the lovely 84 degrees and were greeted by one of the pleasant staff members. ![]() They provided the towels in the waterpark so those were waiting for us. We also had a mini dining and living area with a couch, coffee table, and fireplace and a deck looking out towards a beautiful Traverse City neighborhood.Īs soon as we were done drooling over the room and settling in, it was time to get on the swimsuits and slip on our Great Wolf Lodge wristbands. The main bathroom and shower were downstairs by the girls. Mine and hubby’s bed was up in the loft with our own bathroom and TV. But as you see in the pic they fought over this bed haha! Our oldest daughter got her own bed and the two youngest shared a bed. Our upgrade was to the Loft Fireplace Suite. When we slipped our card key into the slot and the door opened, we were beyond surprised. Now that we were checked-in, it was time to find our room. Now seeing it through big glass windows was definite eye candy. I noticed a Dunkin Donuts in the corner and then the biggest surprise of all….the indoor Bear Track Landing Waterpark! We’ve only been online to view the indoor fun or have seen pictures. While we waited for daddy to finish the check-in process, we toured the lobby. We couldn’t get up to our room fast enough. We also got courtesy Great Wolf Lodge ears (headbands) and bottled waters with wolf paw print fudge. We got an awesome upgrade at a discounted rate. We got there a little after 1 pm and thankfully, our room was ready. Walking into the main lobby for check-in was the ultimate experience for all of us. Our 3 girls were also pretty excited too. The squeals of delight could be heard throughout our family car. It’s very easy to find and very welcoming. So sad it’s over.ĭay #1-As we approached the lodge, the girls noticed the sign right away. We stayed at the Traverse City, MI., location on Tuesday, March 31st, through Thursday, April 2nd! Let me just say it was an awesome experience for my entire family.
