Maybe next summer we'll take him and LO for a night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1287131 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 16:02:10 +0000 Cara M. 17 1287131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: If you ever go to the one in PA we should meet up! It's about an hour away from our house :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1287103 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 15:54:31 +0000 pui 1287103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I totally want to go someday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1287060 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 15:44:58 +0000 AmandaB8 1287060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's a perfect age. My cousin is 10 and is too old for it. We live less than 30 minutes from the KC one, so when they visit they used to stay there. :p </p> <p>Also - sign up for their email list! My aunt says they email promotions to her ALL THE TIME. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286983 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 15:23:47 +0000 Ginger333 1286983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been a ton of times and love it! My kids were 3 and 5 the first time we went and there was tons they could do. :) You should go! I've gone with a newborn once and it's totally do-able. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286825 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 14:42:14 +0000 FarmWifeGina 1286825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cara M. 17: If we do it, we're going to do the Wisconsin one this time because it's right along our route. We're going to PA, but south of I-80, so the Poconos aren't really on our way. But I think it would be LOTS of fun to do that one with DH's family some year when we're out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286799 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 14:38:37 +0000 Cara M. 17 1286799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: DH used to work at the one in PA. I think you would have lots of fun there and there's plenty of shopping and other restaurants in the area as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286716 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 14:12:02 +0000 Bao 1286716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No but in a few years we want to take the girls as a Christmas or b-day gift! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286714 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 14:11:11 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 1286714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My BFF and her whole family went. Her son is almost 5 and her twins are 1 1/2. Her son had a blast! She had nothing but good things to say about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286702 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 14:03:51 +0000 FarmWifeGina 1286702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: Ha, thanks!</p> <p>Sounds like it would be a great for a family with kids the ages of ours (not including the newborn, lol)! Every time we drive by on our trips east, we talk about how we're gonna stop and stay one of these years. Maybe this (well, technically, next) will be the year! First I have to make sure that we're going to be traveling through on workable dates. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286700 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 14:02:44 +0000 MrsBrewer 1286700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been there and it's a lot of fun. The Great Wolf Lodge is an awesome watermark and resort !! We go to the Dells almost every year. There is definitely TONS of stuff for your 3 and 5 year old to do. We went last year with DHs family and niece and nephews. Everyone had a ball. I live in Wisconsin only an hour and a half away so it's really close for us. I would highly recommend it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286689 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:58:11 +0000 regberadaisy 1286689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/great-wolf-lodge#post-904237" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/great-wolf-lodge#post-904237</a> :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286685 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:54:53 +0000 T-Mom 1286685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't been but it's on our list of potential destinations that are drivable.. I think by this summer my kids could really enjoy it, when they are almost 6 and 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286667 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:49:04 +0000 Bookish 1286667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't gone but my friend takes his family at least once a year, and his kids are I think Kindergarten and 1st or 2nd grade? And they've been going for a few years now - they always seem to have a great time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286664 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:47:40 +0000 BSB 1286664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but it sounds like a cool place to go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286659 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:42:55 +0000 regberadaisy 1286659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: she always finds crazy last minute deals! And they all squeeze into one of the enormous rooms and split the room rate. hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286656 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:40:44 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1286656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: yah it is $$$! so maybe next year when olive can enjoy it a little more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286648 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:37:40 +0000 regberadaisy 1286648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My SIL goes with her BFF and sister a few times a year. The kids L-O-V-E it!! I'll have to check it out because I've wanted to join them before with LO but the rooms are $$$!</p> <p>@Mrs. Bee: they go to the one in Poconos </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286647 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:37:17 +0000 doodlepoodle 1286647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't been but my husbands BFF and his wife took their 5 and 2 year olds, they had a BLAST! There's an area for younger kids that their 2 yo had fun at (though they said a year older would've made a difference) but their 5yo was in heaven and the parents had SO much fun too!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286640 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:34:35 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1286640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would love to go but maybe next year. have never been but everyone that goes says it's a blast. my friend went with her 3 and 5 year old last year and loved it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-been-at-a-great-wolf-lodge#post-1286638 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:33:37 +0000 FarmWifeGina 1286638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They have vouchers on Zulily today and I'm thinking if getting one for the Wisconsin Dells Lodge as a family Christmas present since with a new baby and all, there's not going to be a lot under the tree this year, due to me not having my ducks in a row. But I am wondering if my 5- and nearly 3-year-old will be able to our money's worth of enjoyment out if it, lol. If you've been at one, would you say that there is enough to do in the waterpark for younger children? It's not all huge, ginormous water slides, right?<br /> We live in North Dakota and will have to travel to get there (but we're already planning a trip to visit family in PA this winter and our route takes us right through the Dells), but an indoor waterpark in January would feel amaaaaaaaaazing! </p>
