Read review for tip on how to make your stay less EXPENSIVE. Great place to take your children for water fun. If you live in Southern Indiana, check out Big Splash in French Lick before making reservations. This place is cute. Love the wolf ear headbands that come with the price of your stay. The rooms are cozy, especially the ones with bunk beds. Grand daughter loved her "bedroom," which was just a set of bunk beds. Luckily, at 2 years, the ladder was designed so young ones can only climb so high. The full bed was squishy. We had 4 pillows for the 1 bed. The room was satisfactory; other than the shower (mold), bathroom fan (loud) & pipe running from the wall to the toilet (crusty.) *See photos. The refrigerator in my daughter's room needed to be defrosted. All employees were very nice. The options for Pup Passes are good. Close to highway & near restaurants. Some may experience sensory overload. Everything here, especially FOOD, is OVER PRICED. $5 for a standard size bottle of Gatorade. $19.99 for the breakfast buffet. $3.99 for a regular sized candy bar. If you would like to partake of a beer or wine, bring your own too. Most cans of beer were sold for $9.99. I didn't even look at the wine. Due to prices & lack of fresh options, Mike drove to Jimmy John's to get a deli sandwich. Here's your TIP-Bring coolers with your own food & drink. Mike saw a grandma have 3 tables pushed together & laid out the lunch buffet for her family. She unpacked the cooler & the family came for their lunch at the viewing area. Now, that's the way to do it. Bring snacks & drinks. Clearly, they don't mind. And if they do, apologize & pack it up. There are no signs or posts about not bringing outside food. If you stay here & you are on a floor 2-4, please don't let your children run in your room after 11 pm. The ceilings are not sound proof. Thank you for your consideration. read more

Great wolf lodge was so epic! We had such a blast! From booking the water park and the entire family enjoying their time there! The themed rooms were cool for the kids, they loved it! I thought that it was nice they had different activities outside of the pool like arcade, mini golf, bowling, and scavenger hunt! The kids got to do meet and greets with the different mascot animals. The highlights: the water park was so fun and plenty to do, the outdoor pool as well was a hidden gem, the different food spots (Dunkin' Donuts, pizza, conscience store-ish). The only things that I wish could have been done better was the cleanliness of some of the areas! Our room was clean with no issues, but the pizza restaurant was a mess! Just certain areas had some trash and could have been cleaned up better! Overall I would certainly return! It was a fun family event! read more

Was very dirty lots of the attractions are broken that includes the safety rails we have been coming here for 15 years and I can promise I won't be back do better guys!! read more

Management was extremely rude. They offered to extend our stay which I accepted then they made me move rooms. I had to wait in line 5 different times so I spent most of the day trying to get a room and as soon as they told me I could stay in that room. They texted me 10 minutes later and said I needed to get out very rude overall I will not come back. read more

TLDR: If you do go to a GWL, make sure you check your CC and dispute the 'towel fee' they're going to charge you, and make sure you actually see the refund on your account. Went here during family get together for the past two summers. They probably would've gotten a 3-star review from me if they don't run a 'towel fee' scam. The first year, a member of the family had enough foresight to check at the towel desk that we had 0 balance after we turned everything in. When the clerk said no, that family member was insistent enough that we had turned everything in (and we did), that the clerk was willing to clear it. This past stay, we had too many people checking out towels and leaving at different times, we didn't make sure they credited all the towels we returned before we left. Then we saw the $230+ 'towel fee' on our credit card. Their check-in / check-out system is ridiculous and prone to errors. I mean, dump the towels into a bin and it'll credit you the right number? If it's by weight, it'll vary with water weight. If it's by count -- the barely-paying-attention clerk can't possibly count how many towels are in a big bundle. So I called and disputed it. Two days later got an email saying they've refunded the fees and it should show up in 7-10 business days. After 11 business days, no refund. So I emailed back, and essentially got a reply of, "Oh, sorry we didn't actually refund you. We've refunded you this time." And it does not take 7-10 business days for the pending refund to show up on the CC account. If they want to charge such punitive towel fee ($30/towel), they better be sure their system is 99.9% error free. But they instead opt for an inaccurate system and punitive fee. Why? Because it's another stream of income for them, given that not everyone is going check their CC statements to see that they got charged those towel fees. And then not everyone is going to bother calling to dispute to get the fee refunded. And they've added yet another layer of dishonesty by not actually refunding when they say they do, so that people have to pay attention and make sure the refund actually shows up, and to contact them again to ask a second time! NOT going back to another GWL. read more

My family and I have visited this Great Wolf Lodge twice now. The first time was about a week before the pandemic shut everything down in 2020, and the last time was just recently in the summer of 2022. Not much changed between those two time periods, which is either good or bad, depending on how much you like Great Wolf Lodge. I visit these types of places for my kids, and my kids love this place, so I'm basing my review on them. There is a lot for kids to love here. My kids especially love the MagiQuest game that's available at the hotel, where you're basically on a scavenger hunt that takes you all over. You have to purchase a wand and a game (they have four different games to choose from), but once you've purchased your wand, you can use it again and again when you come back. We played in 2020, and when we came back in 2022, our game was right where we had left off. It's a good activity that will have you getting your steps in. Another favorite is the waterpark, of course. There is an indoor waterpark and an outdoor waterpark. The outdoor portion is open during the summer. There's a lazy river, a wave pool, an activity pool, a hot tub for families, and a lot more. My kids also like the arcade at GWL, which is where you will find a mini bowling alley and glow golf. Then there are the activities. There are around-the-clock things for kids to do, including storytimes, arts & crafts, singalongs, dance parties and even yoga for kids. Something is always happening all day. One of the things that has changed since 2020 is the Build a Bear shop. Yes, they have a BAB shop in the hotel! When we were there two years ago, you could find all sorts of different stuffed animals and outfits. This time, they only have outfits with GWL logos on them. We were going to get some outfits for my kids' BAB animals, but they decided not to get them because they didn't want those logos on them. There are restaurants inside the hotel, too. One of them is a sit-down restaurant with a buffet, and another one is a casual pizza restaurant by the arcade. There is also a Dunkin', which is a popular spot in the mornings. Overall, GWL is a fun hotel for families with young kids. My oldest is almost at the age where he might be aging out of it soon (he's almost in middle school), but there's a lot for young kids and their families. read more

My family and I stayed on Wednesday March 4th and we only get to go once a year. Once we got down to the water park half of the water park is being worked on and we we're told was down for 9 days for maintenance. They didn't tell us this at upon check-in. And you pay a lot of money to be there for half of the stuff to not be working!! I tried to contact someone to see if they would atleast comp us something towards another room.. read more

Let me first say that this place is way less stressful than the other hotel water parks in Ohio that we have been to (which is a BIG plus)! First off, the parking was decent. There were workers putting up some new siding as we entered the building. It looked really nice, like they were putting in some nice renovations. It took really long time at the front desk, though all the registers were manned. The lady was pretty friendly when we finally got there. Though there was not "one" line, which was confusing and a bit disorganized as guests were scattered about trying to receive assistance. We then walked around the area which had a few restaurants like Dunkin' Donuts, a pizza place and a buffet area. They also had an arcade, mini golf and a MagiQuest. They definitely need maps because the place is big and the parking/doors (that are numbered) are confused to find (in order to get to your room). Our room was quite big and seemed nice. Our room was on the fourth floor and overlooked the outside water park. When we were able to get to the water park area with the kids, the life guards were super nice and not too overbearing (like at some waterpark/hotels we have been to). There is a little kid pool area with smaller slides and basketball, a wave pool, several other bigger slides, including a family slide, an area with buckets and more slides, a lazy river, outdoor area, bar/adult hot tub, and more. It was decent sized and not too crammed with people, which was nice. My only qualm was there was only one food area and one bar. I felt like there needed to be more variety and options for food in this place. Though service was good at Buckels and the food was too (ordered salad and drink). The kids did have a blast. We were not thrilled with the water park hours though. It is from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. I feel like it should be more than that... Maybe 8 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.? Maybe even include an adult only hour? (This would entice people more, in my opinion). I would highly recommend trying the family slide and the toilet bowl (yellow and orange) slide. Those were both really fun and definitely something we liked the most. We also tried the arcade, which was okay (not a lot of variety, most of them were worth 10-12 points, which is quite expensive). There were a lot of claw machines, and NOT good ones. The kind that have crappy claws, even if you have perfect aim you are not getting anything... The ticket area is self-manned, we were a few off from both kids getting the item they wanted and the sweet lady there gave it to them anyways (which was really kind and much appreciated). We did pizza for dinner. The pizza and soda were pretty good. The lady at the desk for pick up had no personality though and it took three times of telling our name and giving her our receipt for her to return with our meals. Check out was really easy, it auto-checks out for you and you use your wrist bands to get into your room and water park. Plus, you can rent out their towels with it too (which were really warm when we got them, which was nice). Overall, we did enjoy this location (minus a few smaller things). We look forward to coming back. read more

My kiddos and I decided to take a spontaneous one night trip to Great Wolf Lodge. Check in was fast and easy and they give you the option to add your card to you and your kids wristbands to make paying for things easier at the lodge. We were very pleased with the room. Our room was super spacious, clean and came with a jacuzzi tub. My kids are older so we didn't do anything but the water park but it was a lot of fun for the three of us to ride the slides together. Finding a spot to set your stuff is pretty difficult though. I downloaded their app, hoping we could order room service but there weren't any options other than pizza which was disappointing. We ended up waiting for a table at the Lodge Wood Fired Grill. We were happy with our meal. The bed was comfortable and everyone slept like babies after a long night of water park fun. read more

This place was already EXPENSIVE! I came here with my adopted son of close to one year and he's Jewish. He wanted to ask buckets if their fries were fried in pork fat or oil. He stayed there for 20 minutes when one of the employees who clearly knew English were 100% cool with some employees not being fluent we really are. But he knew English because he was shouting and yelling which did make us uncomfortable but that employee just shut him off when he wanted to know what the fries were cooked in. That wasn't cool. read more

It was a good trip we like it the only reason we didn't like it is the water is so cold and the beds sucked and noise bed room but that was fun read more

I struggled with this review because there were some hiccups during my stay with my son. But I'm sure they were dealing with staffing issues as other businesses are, and overall, we had a wonderful time. As others have mentioned, check in is a problem. We waited in line for over half an hour. But, our room was ready! The room was clean and well appointed. We didn't upgrade to anything fancy, so I wasn't expecting to have my mind blown. The water park was great fun and the life guards were taking everyone's safety seriously. It could have been warmer in there, but that's a small complaint. As for the rest of the resort, it needs some attention. Only one of the bowling lanes was functioning and the kids' "mining" experience had clearly been neglected. But again, we had a great time and isn't that what really matters? read more

overpriced for the amount of bedbugs you get. i could go to a motel 6 and get more bedbugs for 80$ a night not 500$ a night ‍‍ they seriously need to shut down and do a full clean or remodel idk. read more

The kids had fun, but unfortunately, our overall experience at Great Wolf Lodge was disappointing. The lifeguards seemed distracted and often allowed too much fooling around and unsafe behavior in the pools. Many parents didn't seem to be watching their own kids, which made things feel chaotic. The facilities weren't as clean as I would expect, and for the price, it felt very overpriced for what's offered. It doesn't feel particularly suited for young kids at this time, though we may try again in a few years and hope for a better experience. We are hoping our visit this summer was just during a busy and more chaotic time or that our children were just on the younger side for it to be truly enjoyable, but can't overlook some of the issues that could easily be corrected by the business (cleanliness, lifeguard training and safety). read more

The location was easy to find. The check in was a breeze but that is about when all the great expectations ended. We got there at 730pm all the ammendities ended at 8pm. Check in is at 4pm, as is in most places, but never have the ammendities that you paid so much extra for closed so early. We came for a birthday and everything in the place you had to pay additional fees for after you have already paid too much for the room. I mean absolutely nothing was included. The beds were so lumpy and sheets did not appear to have been changed, as someone left a makeup print on them. I just slept on top annd use the towels to cover the pillow. I had forgotten my disposable bedsheets. Then when I said something to the manager about having to drive from out of state to get there and not being able to use the facilities very long his only accommodation was too allow me a late check out for free because that is usually an additional $50 or another nights stay for an additional 140.10 which is 1/3 of the faction of my original nights price to stay. Yes for one night. So uou can see why I was frustrated. But I paid they played and we left. Never to go there again. Now I will update this once I see about all these pending charges on my Credit card bc if they dont fall off Ill be sure to update. So they charge you 15.00 per towel that you do not return to the desk in the waterpark and you have to make sure they check in the towels. Just a greedy money pit. read more

I paid a lot of money to stay here for just 2 nights. I think the kids enjoyed it but it was not worth the price we paid. The buffet was small and a lot tasted like yesterday's leftovers. We ate at the pizza place and the bread sticks were ice cold. Pizza was really good. We didn't say anything about the breadsticks because we didn't want the kids to think we weren't enjoying it. One drop of water in the eye was so full of chlorine that I instantly wanted to nap. The bowling is mini balls and pins and the mini golf is so dark and not ideal for my autistic son. I would not pay extra if we came again. Was caught off guard from excessive pressure booking online. Place was nice but not worth the price we paid. Should be 5 stars service for what they are charging for 2 nights. read more

During our family stay on the 4th of July I got hurt pretty severely and the staff there was very flip and uncaring ruined our super expensive vacation read more

This is not the Great Wolf Lodge that it was before Covid. All the personal touch is gone. The service is pretty rough. And they nickel and dime you to death for every darn thing. Wanna swim? They're gonna charge you $25 just to use the towels, and if you don't return all the towels you check out they charge you another $15. Want to expand your food plan from the breakfast lunch to include dinner? Not even available. You can pay it out of pocket, but they won't expand your meal plan for money. We had a great wolf suite, which was two adjoining rooms, the floor plan was a lot smaller than two single rooms, and half the electric outlets didn't work. That was a surprise in the morning with a dead cell phone. Shower was broke. Coffee pot is laughable. Not a coffee pot. Not even a Keurig. Single serving has these coffee teabag trays. For several years before Covid we did a winter trip, and I was trying to make it possible here. Now that we're out of the lockdowns I hope to have a little bit of return to normalcy, but like many other things Covid ruined every it, and the good parts aren't coming back. I think maybe I can try getting just a normal hotel room over in Columbus in the summer, and maybe we can do some Zoombezi Bay some thing. read more

My friends took me here for my bachelorette party back in October. We loved going here when we were younger and wanted to have a blast before wedding planning got too busy. Our room was clean and quiet. We had a cool view of The Bat at Kings Island which was fun. The waterpark was awesome, the adult only hot tub was very nice. We really enjoyed magiquest and brought our own wands we had thrifted. They were able to wipe them and let us use them. The games were fun, the food is good and overall it's an awesome place to go. I can't wait to go back! read more

this place is hands down awesom. the staff was SO NICE they were able to get us in our room 3 hours earlier than we expected! The food was amazing and the water park! We spent 2 nights thee and the waterpark was amazing! though I did get a cough after the water park it will still be lasting memories! But the ONE problem is THIS PLACE IS SO PRICEY! otherwise I will be back, they do give you wolf ears free though my nieces loved them and my son liked them too! read more

This was an ups and downs experience. The kids (9,6&4) had a fantastic time. The adults could see that the facility was aging, the mysterious and bogus fees kept piling up, the food was over-priced & below-average, the service was spotty, the kid's activities were OK, the water park was quite safe (lifeguards do a great job) and the building was mostly clean (except for disgusting hallway carpets). AVOID the Lodge Restaurant in the facility. Our expensive meal there was below average and our servers were confused about everything. There is a new parking "fee" that the front desk staff could not explain. They won't tow or ticket your car...just don't pay it. read more

This is our 2nd time visiting GWL and overall our experiences have been great. Lots of activities for the kids and of course the phenomenal water park. They have tons of restaurants and are fortunately located in an area where if you need to leave you most certainly can. They had extra activities for the kids since it is Halloween. The room was spacious and came with a fireplace as well. The only suggestions I have is that the staff is not friendly and this is an observation for each time I have visited. Keep in mind I know that everywhere is short staffed but the only staff I have run into that was remotely friendly was the housekeeping staff, also, their definitely need to be updates to the rooms. I feel that they are a little outdated. Other than that we had the absolute best time. My kids can't wait to go back! read more

Where do I begin.... First let me start off by saying check in was easy, we stayed a total of three days. When we received our room my wife and I brought the kids in to the room to change to get just a few hours left before it closed. We had a decent time at the water park but the kids however, did have fun. After the water park we ordered pizza so we didn't have to leave again, the prices were somewhat on the steep side but the pizza was actually good. We brought the pizza back to our room to eat. While eating my kids noticed toenail clippings on the floor. As much as I found it disgusting I just grabbed some toilet paper and got most of them up off of the rug. After eating we were going to get baths and showers but in order to take a shower we had to clean out the tub due to lots of hair on the wall and laying in the tub. We cleaned the tub not a bid deal and moved on. While washing my youngest child off in the bath a centipede ran next to me while I was kneeling on the floor, I of course killed it and decided to mention it to the front desk (I had pictures to show). They did try and remedy the situation by crediting a little bit of money back to my card and gave us free breakfast, they also assured me that the following day they would send someone in to clean the room. The second day, we spent most of the day at the waterpark and when we came back we noticed no one entered our room to clean. Nothing really worth mentioning the second day besides the infestation of gnats by the front door. The third day we decided we didn't want to stay and swim and just get home. After we got home I had to visit the doctors due to staph infection in multiple areas. The doctor mentioned that if you are someone who gets sweat bumps from wearing pants they create open wounds and can be infected by dirty environments. I showered prior to entering the waterpark and when exiting like it mentioned when walking in but clearly it didn't work. read more

This place is ridiculous and expensive. Talk about the fun police, it seems you can't do anything without them blowing that whistle. Examples: went down the kiddie slide with my 2y/o granddaughter and got the whistle cause adults aren't apparently allowed to help thier little ones. Next I see 2 kids tossing a football in the outside pool for probably around 20 minutes, then the girl decides to blow the whistle at them to stop tossing football. I stopped on the stairs during the night dance program and was told to keep moving, thank god she didn't have a whistle. I get if someone is being unsafe then BLOW that whistle til your cheeks hurt. We won't make another trip here due to the cost of everything and the constant harassment from the employees. read more

The Water Park is great! They really should have some wheelchair bound inspectors help them with being more accessible. They said Door 4 was closest to our room, but door 5 was closer. None of the door switches open outside doors. Drink and food ordering is done by kiosks that are too high to reach from a wheelchair. They allow ordering food through room service, but then they text you to pick it up. They say the breakfast package is for menu restaurant or the buffet, but the restaurant was closed for the weekend. The pizza they sell is pretty good. Most staff members were friendly and helpful. All things considered, our grandkids had a great weekend so we will probably go again with reduced expectations! read more

The great wolf lodge is a must try for the little one and adults. Great resort style indoor water park. Plenty of slides and amenities to accommodate every age. There are certain things that needs to improve, 1 thing comes to mind is the scavenger hunt game. It cost a lot for the wizard wand and game but some of the machines needs to be updated and fix. read more

Great Wolf Lodge - Great place for everyone - Resorts Near Me - Mason, Ohio

The water park, which is the main attraction, needs some work. Adults and children are walking around eating and drinking and spilling everywhere. There's an odd smell, and no it's not chlorine, it kind of gross. You can see copious amounts of dust and debris all over the tops of the water slides. The WiFi is terrible and only gets worse as the night goes on and people leave the pool. We were hungry and decided on pizza. We ordered and were told it would take an hour, and we were given a pager. After an hour and a half I went back down to see what the hold up was. The guy told me it was coming out now. So as I waited, I listened to other customers come up inquiring about their pizza. Each one was given some random amount of time their pizza would be ready. One lady was told a half hour, to which she replied "I was told 20 minutes a half hour ago, give me a refund". Then by some miracle 2 pizzas appeared. Since it had been another 15 minutes since my pizza was supposedly coming out, I asked again where my pizza was. I was finally given my pizza plus attitude, and my pager never went off. The room is fairly nice, but oddly decorated. Overall I probably won't come back and would tell others to not waste their money. read more

Great Wolf Lodge - Who thought this was acceptable? - Resorts Near Me - Mason, Ohio

Ran out ASAP - rooms have BED BUGS YES BED BUGs ... we stayed in room 852 in August and on night one this happened to my daughter... bed bugs stay under your skin layer and bite in a linear fashion over a short period of time. Their bites may be mistaken for spider bites but these things are so darn itchy...it's also easy to compare for mosquito bites which the uneducated unhelpful supervisor on site tied to convince us that's all they were but they are not... because the bugs can hang in the skin they bite you over a period of time is similar locations... w Bed bugs are not only disgusting but overly contagious you can take these guys home and forget it. They will live in your house and their bites are unbearable, they burn and itch so horribly you can't imagine the pain. I couldn't believe the resort didn't have a rapid response in place or at least let folks know this was being investigated and let folks decide for their own account. It was obvious that staff had dealt with this before!!! read more

I have mixed feelings about the lodge. On the one hand we had a lot of fun, but we tend to do that anytime we're all get together (we had 5 rooms). The grandkids had a blast at the water park, pure joy even for the 2 year old and all of them played to exhaustion. The wand controlled shadow game in the lobbies and halls was also a big attraction only for the kids. Running the gauntlet of kids even long after most should be in bed was kind of a pain. Many kids and adults were rude and selfish and could not care less about anyone else walking by. The kids dance party at night and yoga in the morning was also a hit with the kids. But then the flip side, it was extremely noisy all the time. Even at 2AM people and kids were up, making noise, bouncing off the walls and disrupting other guests. The resort itself is like one of those over used and tired amusement parks where they are all sick of seeing tourists and doing the same thing over and over. The staff was slow, often forgetting details. The royally goofed up our reservations and told my wife lies over the phone before our arrival about being ready and yet they got everything wrong they promised. You know how you expect theme parks, theaters and amusement parks to be over priced with expensive but mediocre food? Well they got that part right. The pizza was okay but easily 3 times more expensive than if I had just called for takeout and delivery would have been faster. But the grill and the Buffett were simply horrible. Bad indifferent service, menus were wrong, some items were missing, some were terribly bad and seemed to be cooked and prepared by an animal. Everyone got food poisoning at the buffet (twice). The grill service was very slow, inattentive, got order items wrong several times, and even with that the food was just somewhere between good and ordinary but nowhere near valued to match the high prices and terrible service. SO we had a lot of fun, but also felt ripped off over the high prices and poor quality. We did like the wrist bands instead of room keys and the wrist bands acting like our ID and room charge back was smart for us. read more

This is one of the biggest tourist traps out there! Took my daughter and 2 grand kids 2 and 9. I spent $1121 in 24 hours at this place. My room was supposed to be 3 twins and a queen. But it wasn't it was bunks and a queen. With stained nasty sheets and blankets. The carpet was DISGUSTINGLY DIRTY!!! Mold in bathtub. I paid $523 for this!! The waterpark had a million chairs with people's towels on them but none to sit in. The place smelled like chlorine so bad it burns your eyes and your throat. This can't be safe!! Everything is broke and not working. The plastic wands that are $40+ is ridiculous then none of the stations work. I could go on forever!! Shame on you GREAT WOLF LODGE!! You definitely don't get what you pay for!!! read more

My wife picked this place, having heard of them many times in the past and we were visiting the area. A great location next to a huge amusement park and busy area. Check in was quick and easy. We were prepaid and just needed card imprint for incidentals but alas they weren't able to register the card. No biggie, just meant we had use the card for any purchases instead of their wristband / room key. Room was fairly spacious and well appointed. The bathroom though was more of a closet, small enough to turn around in but not much else. Beds and pillows were comfy. Two issues. One, the wall AC unit was directly by sleeper sofa, which took the brunt of cold air. Out 18 year old granddaughter slept there and had to use 2 blankets. The other issue was sink. The stopper couldn't be opened for draining. I kept easing stopper and finally removed it, caked with crud. I called and maintenance came and replaced it. This resort is really made for kids, not so much adults. The inside water Park was fabulous, with huge slides, lazy river, hot tub and wave pool. Always seemed to be something going on for kids. A "quest" was in place that kids followed clues and carried a wand that activated graphics in several areas. I must admit I was tempted to join the quest with kids but the almost $20 wand purchase stopped me. Interior restaurantes were on the pricey side so we went out to try local places instead. On check in day we were tired from long drive and did get a pizza there. One size fits all - large only. The $20 pizza was delicious but we could only eat 2/3. Wife and granddaughter also had to try the candy shoppe, again one price, $16 for a cup the size of a large coffee cup. Big variety of candies, the girls said chocolate rocks were best. They also had individual bars and bags for sale. All in all, a great place for families with small children, just not so much for adults. read more

This is the second Great wolf Lodge we have stayed at. This time we got a loft suite the go around because we had a big group. Over all the rooms were great. Due to having a large group of people we acquired a good amount of garbage during our stay. I am a little disappointed that housekeep never came during our three night stay. Overall the hotel is nice and man in the common areas Ans the staff is very friendly. The water park at this one is huge and does have a family hot tub and a 21 and older hot tub. During our stay here only the family hot tub was opened and there were plenty of kids splashing in there so don't expect to be relaxed. You could even say it was a very "hot" hot tub either, more of a lukewarm tub. After a day of walking around Kings Island we were looking to smooth our muscles with a nice dip but that was not able to happen unfortunately. Over all this hotel is in perfect proximity to Kings Island and has a very nice walking path to get there. Definitely recommend I'd you are going to be visiting kings island as well read more

Well after three emails and four phone calls no response. I guess I'm stuck paying for a dozen towels that I never had. Beware or avoid. This is how they milk you.

Stay at your own risk. read more

I wasn't sure what to except, it's a nice easy family place. The room was cute and with the bunk room, perfect for a preteen boy sleepover birthday party. The indoor pool was clean and the kids loved the variety of slides and pools. The staff was professional and friendly. I feel the life guards were on top of it. The only caveat, although expected, is the food and drinks on site are pricey, but bring your own. They all your own food and drinks. read more

I did not stay at the hotel but I did go to the indoor waterpark and had a great time. Slides for all ages from babies to thrill seekers like myself. My favorite slides have to be the triple twist and the slide that used to be the water coaster. Lifeguards where extremely attentive here, check in for day passes was painless and in expensive. Lines moved very fast and the staff was overall very nice. Overall, I'd recommend coming to great wolf lodge in Mason, Ohio. It's a very nice place, read more

6 people of our party of 12 ended up sick from this place. Pinkeye and vomiting. I'm sure that the water park area is to blame. We have visited the past and have had wonderful trips. It's definitely going down hill. The fireplace in our room didn't work, there was no lighting in the living room area where there used to be a lamp in previous years and you couldn't even see to do anything. There were muddy shoe prints on our sheets and what looked like blood stains too. I couldn't wait to leave. Never going back which is a shame because we have had great trips in previous years. They need to put some money back into the place at the amount they charge. We also rented a cabana and didn't receive the services explained. Nice to have a dedicated space to put your stuff and for people to meet up, but way overpriced. read more
