    I purchased a day pass for the waterpark for two adults and one child. My 18 month old didn't have to pay (thankfully), and tickets were $60 per person for a Sunday, which isn't bad compared to similar waterparks in the area. This was my first time visiting, and I quickly realized how fast things can add up. From the moment we arrived, it felt like it was going to be an overwhelming day. There were a lot of people in the lobby, and when we got downstairs to the waterpark, there was only one person handling check in with a long line waiting. I did like that they give you towels and life jackets, two less things to bring. Pros: * Reasonable entry price ($60 per person for a Sunday compared to similar parks) * 18 month old gets in free * Parking paid upfront (convenient, one less thing to worry about) * They give you towels and life jackets * Dedicated toddler/baby area (great for little ones) * Kid-friendly spaces, my 5 year old had a blast * Overall fun experience for kids Cons: * Very crowded and a bit chaotic, especially on a weekend * Long wait to check in (only one staff member handling it) * Extra costs add up quickly (lockers were over $50 for two large ones) * Locker need is higher in winter with bulky coats *Food is limited and expensive * Space feels small for the number of people * Lazy river is very small Overall: Great for kids and worth trying, but I'd recommend going on a weekday and packing light to avoid some of the hassle.

    I love love love this place. Stayed for two nights 3 days and had a fabulous experience. As always in any Great Wolf Lodge you are allowed to go to the water park and enjoy the attractions outside of your room being ready so we did have a couple hours to wait. And I just love how everything was centralized and safe being that they gear things toward young children there really was only one way out and that would have been the front door so it might be a little chaotic but the safety is there. I saw multiple times people vacuuming and cleaning throughout my stay, around the eating area same thing, everybody was kind. This was one of the best days we've had at a great wolf. I would highly recommend this particular location in Perryville maryland. We didn't really have a lot to do outside of it without having to travel a solid half an hour so we spent most of the time at the resort. Can't wait to go back in the summer when the pool is opened outside as well. For food we were able to easily order through the app at Timber which is there quick hamburger chicken spot. We did one pizza and a sit down at Barnwood I would recommend all three of them. My only tip would be bring your own towels that line for towels is absolutely insane and unnecessary. Just bring your own and things will be much easier. We didn't necessarily rush to get to the pool for opening and we were still able to find an area with a little table for three people with no problem. Highly recommend. The magi quest activity! We didn't do this when we were there only one night and I wouldn't recommend that but for the two nights I definitely would specially if you have a child that wakes up early and the attractions don't open till later.

    This was my first time ever going to a great wolf location and i wasn't too impressed... my baby dropped her pacifier under the couch in the room and when I got down there to get it, it was filthy under there. The pillows had hair on them from a previous guest. The best experience was the banana split from the ice cream shop. Even though the pastry case was pretty empty and there were sprinkles all over the place... Paying $19 per car to park when you are already staying there is CRAZY TO ME!!! The rooms are already expensive... and that's fine to charge for parking IF YOU ARE THERE JUST FOR THE WATER PARK... but to charge guest when they already have paid a significant amount of money to stay is out of control. Even Disney World includes parking at the resort and EVERY SINGLE PARK if you stay at the resort. We got a VERY EXPENSIVE build a bear and the top wasn't even closed properly. We got it in a bag because we were checking out so we didn't notice the hole in the bear until we got in the car and i buckled my child in her car seat and passed it to her. I live almost 3 hours away so I will go to a local build a bear to see if they will fix it. As a person who LOVES amusement parks, water parks, and anything fun, I wanted to love this a lot. I have wanted to go for years.... But it didn't meet the expectation I had. The Williamsburg location is about a hour or so away so maybe I will give them a try but I'm very sad about it.

    I've been to several GWL's and this one is easily my favorite given the proximity to home. The place was very clean, organized and the staff top notch. Just passing through the halls every crew member acknowledged your presence and made you feel welcomed. The dunkin and ice cream shop were great for quick breakfast or treats and the barnwood restaurant was fantastic! I had dinner there several night so drinks appetizers and entrees were not what you would expect at a kids indoor water park resort. If had to nit pick one thing its that I wish the suites (or at least some) had in room microwaves as my little guy has food allergies so we have to bring and prepare his meals. The communal offering worked and was kept very clean considering how many rooms it served on the floor but it was a long walk and required getting presentable enough to dash down the hall. I personally would pay a little more for the convenience if it was offered in some of the themed or family suites.

    July 2025 | First-time Visitor Customer service - 5 out of 5 Cleanliness - 5 out of 5 Atmosphere - 4 out of 5 Parking availability - 5 out of 5 Check-in wait time: 3 out of 5 First time at Great Wolf Lodge, and overall, it was great. My 11-year-old son has been several times and loves it. It's very family-friendly, and being a nut-free facility is a huge bonus for us. Huge thanks to Megan at Wood's End Creamery and Kelly at Barnwood. Megan was incredibly thoughtful with my son's allergies. She washed her hands, used fresh gloves, opened a new ice cream container, showed us labels--the works. At dinner, Kelly made sure the kitchen was informed of my son's allergies and took great care of us. Food was good but pricey. My son's kid's meal was over $10 and tiny, so we had to share our food with him since he was still hungry. Cobb salad was excellent. Nachos were okay -- bland chicken and raw jalapeños didn't help. The water park was fun but not relaxing. No loungers, just upright chairs. Loud, crowded, and a bit rowdy -- not quite the calm, family vibe I expected. Our room on the 3rd floor was clean, spacious, and quiet despite noisy hallways. A solid stay overall. All in all, I will definitely visit again! With a rating of 22 out of 25, I give this place a B+ Verdict: Highly Recommend

    I was genuinely surprised and disappointed to be charged $19 for overnight parking. This was never disclosed during the booking process, not in my confirmation, and not on my zero balance due invoice. What's frustrating is that during booking I was asked repeatedly about food packages and upgrades, yet no one mentioned a mandatory parking fee. This isn't a downtown hotel with limited garage space. This is a large property with massive open lots in a remote area. Charging for parking is one thing, but not clearly disclosing it before purchase feels misleading. This left a very bad feeling that what they offer isn't enough unless I upgrade upgrade upgrade. I will never return to this place, I feel ripped off and mislead.

    I booked our 1night summer Great Wolf Lodge experience for my family. The resort is fairly new to the area so I wanted to give it a try since it was so close to us. For a cheaper price, I decided to book a Thursday-Friday in which we had access to the water park both days. Beware parking is added to your room at the time of check-in in the amount of $15. I personally didn't like the layout of the hotel room with the sink area being outside of the bathroom area. The hotel room has a refrigerator so definitely bring snacks and sandwiches to avoid the overpriced food. There is only one set of elevators in the hotel which makes it busy for family check-in and check-outs. The water park was great with so many slides, wave pool, lazy river, leap frog pads and the basketball area. The outdoor pool was nice which included a hot tube as well. There is a food and drink bar inside. The waterpark closed at 8pm so we literally stay in there all day. After the water park closes, there are other activities like tight rope, mini golf, bowling and the arcade. The bowling area is extremely to small to accommodate a full hotel with only 4-6 lanes which obviously fulls up fast. The tight rope area was nice. There are a few different restaurants onsite however, a lot of families ordered food from nearby fast food restaurants for a cheaper cost. The arcade closes at 12 midnight which was the teenager hangout. After cleaning the hotel bathroom, I found hair which was gross. The gift shop has Build A Bear inside which is cool and expensive. In the main lobby they have movies playing and scavenger hunts for the kids. The area surrounding the hotel is pretty quiet. There is not a lot to do outside of the resort so, they definitely need to build more attractions on the property. Overall, I would definitely return if I can find a reasonable price again for my family.

    My sister booked and organized our families of 16 for our first summer event. We had family members from PA, NJ, MD and VA assemble to celebrate her son 11th birthday. The drive for us was approximately 2.5 hrs but after crossing over the tall bridge, it was an excellent view of the Susquehanna River. Once we arrived to Great Wolf Lodge, it was huge with plenty of parking, a loading and unloading area at front entrance. The only problem at the front entrance that I noticed was while guests were loading and unloading, there was no one to direct traffic at the entrance. Therefore most of the vehicles were just parked and sitting there while others behind them cannot move forward or exit that area since it's one way. Once you enter the building, the lobby was clean with a fireplace, gorgeous high ceiling, chandeliers, modern wooden beams, and overwhelming atmosphere. The check in area is on the left. You have the option of self check with multiple kiosk or with a live customer service counter. All guests are required to purchase a parking permit ($19) if you haven't done so during your reservation. On the lower level, there are multiple eateries such as Dunkin Donuts, Campfire Kitchen with a AYCE buffet; Pretzel shop, Ice cream shop, Barnyard gift shop, elevators, a large rope course, bowling, entrance to the indoor water park and a hallway that leads to the exterior pool with cabanas. Though there are multiple entertainment and eateries, they are not 24 hrs. Even the interior and exterior pools are closed by 8p but reopen at 9a. There are some local eateries outside the resort if you decide to venture out. There were a few safety concerns especially at the water park. There wasn't enough lifeguards and the lazy river was very aggressive because some of the older kids decided to race by pushing and hitting anyone in their path. Some of our guests and other guests wasn't able to get into their rooms due to a defect of the wristbands and had to return to the counter to get a new one. At the counter we were assisted by Erica and Ellie. Housekeeping we were help by Heather. They have 23 locations throughout the United States that offers and caters to children and families. Overall, this 700-800 rooms resort was a fantastic place to be, all of their staffs were friendly and welcoming. My nephew and his cousins had a blast!

    Very disappointed! Will not have my father renting rooms from here ever again!…read more My father was carried out in a gurney and hauled to the hospital after serious life treating complications. My father was completely transparent with the motel about his condition and the willingness to get his belongs The motel was understanding at first and willing to work with him. However Upon arrival to gather his belongings we had noticed they placed an additional lock on the door. the hotel manager told me that the owner had the only key. The hotel then notified me that to enter an get everything. There is now a 60 dollar per day rate on the last three days for holding his stuff longer than rental agreement. It's a crying shame to take advantage of the older generation especially when they are in the hospital May god be with you

    I'd like to preface this with the fact that I haven't stayed here at all. I actually just passed…read morethrough on a walk home. But apparently whomever looks after this ratty run down looking hotel happened to be outside sweeping. Now as a young African American woman carrying a backpack and a lunchbox you would think I come off as pretty non threatening. Not only that I'm minding my business with my headphones in my ear and you'd think the first thing someone says to me is "hello"or "are you ok "" "looking for someone" "can we help you with anything" etc. but apparently her brand of niceness is shooing me away and asking me a million times where I thought was going. So not that any person that isn't strung out on something or in dire need of a place to crash and everything else in the surrounding area is booked would want to stay in this joke of hotel but I'd like to be the first person to tell you that they're less than hospitable and pretty much profiled the crap out of me. What was I gonna do stick em up with my Fiji water bottle?! Come on people do better! The worlds already an f'd up enough place without you adding your necessary rudeness to the equation.
