Great Wolf Lodge {Tips}

I am finally wrapping up my Great Wolf Lodge blog posts with tips for surviving the lodge!

Here is a little recap of our trip:

Girls weekend trip with 5 girls in one standard family suite {we fit in room comfortably}

We arrived early Sunday morning and checked out Tuesday afternoon

2 adults and 3 kids

Tip #1 Stay hydrated at the water park

- The water park is kept at a certain temperature and it is pretty hot. They have free water stations at the water park...take advantage of this!

Tip #2 Take breaks from the water park

- When you walk into the water park you can smell the chlorine. So take little breaks out of the water often.

Tip #3 Water Shoes 

- I purchased these water shoes for the girls to wear at the water park. It kept their feet safe from any crazy weird foot fungus and from slipping all over the place.

Tip #4 Waterproof phone case

- My sister and I purchased these waterproof phone cases to store our phone and cash while we were at the water park. They actually worked and we saw several people with them too!

Tip #5 Floatation Devices 

- They have vests that your littles can borrow, so save yourself from over packing!

Tip #6 Towels

- They provide towels for guests at the water park. 

Tip #7 Have fun!!!

- I was such a paranoid mess at the water park. My kids were perfectly safe and happy. So I really didn't need to worry as much as I did.

I hope you find my tips helpful on your visit to the lodge!

Great Wolf Lodge {Around The Lodge}

Happy Friday Everyone!

Thank you for following along all the Great Wolf Lodge fun!

Up today is everything we did around the lodge...from where we ate to the fun activities we did!

Buckle up for the ride it'll be a long one!

Where we ate and snacked...

For Breakfast we would grab a quick bite at the Dunkin' Donuts located in the hotel right off the elevators and McDonald's across the street(a quick walk away).

For Lunch/Dinner we ate at the Lodge and Buckets (located in the water park area).

The Lodge is a smaller restaurant inside the hotel. Considering its size we never had trouble getting a table.   

Buckets is located inside of the water park, I would recommend ordering food before your party is out of the water. The lines get pretty long.

Fun Activities around the lodge...The great part about Great Wolf Lodge is that they have tons of free activities for the kids to do!

Here are just a few...Face painting, bracelet making, ballon animals and so much more. Make sure to plan out your trip so you don't miss the fun and free activities.

The packages...We got the girls the "passes" which you purchase at an additional cost. 

They offer different passes that range from $44.99 up to $99.99

I purchased my daughters the "Pup Pass" which was the cheapest pass at $44.99.

This pass included:

One Creation Station animal with a Clubhouse Crew Adventure

One $5 Paw Points game card

One 12 oz. candy cup

One Glitz Glitter tattoo

One scoop of ice cream at Bear Paw Sweets & Eats

I wish I had gone with the next pass up because they both wanted to do the other activities included in the   "Paw Pass" so I ended up spending more paying for the items separately.

Cailee at Creation Station which is their version of Build-a-Bear!

The Ten Paw alley was so much fun and the kids enjoyed bowling with the tiny bowling balls.

Getting pictures with the girls was so difficult because they just wanted to play but I love this picture of Charlotte and I.

Come back tomorrow for some tips for surviving the lodge!
