Extending far beyond waterparks, Great Wolf Lodge also offers families quality accommodations, exceptional service, a multitude of dining options, popular indoor arcade games and more. There’s something for the entire family at Great Wolf Lodge, from PJ parties and nightly story time for kids to spa programming and evening “wine down” packages for adults. New at the Grand Mound and Grapevine locations are curated build-your-own Fort Kits —crafted by an Etsy mom of four and grandma to 12— that serves as the ultimate family bonding activity and souvenir to pop up once at home.
