Our experience at Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City, MI was the best! The beds were amazingly comfortable. The rooms with their vaulted ceilings and balcony made the rooms feel so large. We loved the sitting area in each room. Everything about the Great Wolf Lodge is an experience for kids and adults alike, from walking in the door being greeted with a wolf ear headband to the helpful agents at the check in desk. Our dining experiences were great & delicious. The indoor water park was a highlight for our family, both kids and adults. The "quests" our kids participated in were truly magical. Everyone came home with wands, capes and a touch of magic. An excellent time was had by all from ages 4 to 74. We'll be back!

Fun-filled, magical escape with the kids. This is way better than other water park hotels. It’s clean with spacious rooms. It’s not overly crowded. I highly recommend. Will go again for sure.
