First time staying here. We had so much fun. From the moment you step through the doors you know this place is different. Had the whole family with us. Kids, grandkids, everyone had a great time. Our rooms weren't anything special but we didn't come for the rooms. They were clean and comfortable and that's about all we needed from them. You can stay in theme rooms for a different experience. The water park was awesome. So much fun on every attraction. The pools and areas around them were clean and well staffed. We didn't try the restaurants. We ordered pizza. read more

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY Our stay at Great Wolf Lodge Webster was extremely disappointing for the amount of money we spent. The water park was the best part, and the kids did enjoy themselves, but everything outside of that was frustrating. At Fireside, our server Kennedy seemed irritated and rushed, and we repeatedly had to track her down for basic service. I was able to eat, but my sister's burger was served incorrectly and completely raw inside. She had to wait while the rest of us finished eating, and by the time we got someone's attention, the other food locations had closed, leaving her without a meal. Guest Relations offered bowling and mini golf as compensation, but there were less than 30 minutes left to use them. We tried bowling anyway, only to have balls get stuck and pins become tangled repeatedly. We had to find an employee around 8 times before giving up. Our room also repeatedly became extremely hot even after adjusting the thermostat, making it difficult to get comfortable or sleep. Even the children's water area had issues. Glass was brought into the area and broken, causing it to temporarily close. We also experienced inconsistent enforcement of the children's area rules. When a lifeguard in orange Elijah would hold the door for children to escape then cornered my 2 year old daughter shaming her for doing what every other kid was doing playing in the water at the bottom of the slide. Overall, we spent far too much of our trip trying to find employees, deal with broken amenities, and get basic issues addressed. For the price, I expected much better customer service, working amenities, and a comfortable room. Unfortunately, the water park was the only part of the experience that lived up to our expectations. read more

Enforce Line Rules: Kick out line-cutters on the spot instead of letting them run the park. Train and Back Up Staff: Teach young employees how to manage crowds and step in when guests act up. Active Floor Management: Get supervisors out of the office to actually monitor the park and support frontline workers. Justify the Price: $300 for an hour of pure frustration is unacceptable--either deliver a functional experience or refund pissed-off guests. read more

The problem with this business is fourfold. 1) there were insufficient wait staff assigned to every restaurant that we visited. Staff was very apologetic, but wait times were terrible for service once seated, 2) no luggage carts. Where on earth are they? We started looking for one at 5am but none to found. Front desk? "Huh that's weird huh?" 3) cabana service was terrible (over an hour for drink orders. Our wait person was great! She just had too many cabanas assigned (it looked like she had all of them), and 4) the coffee. Unreal bad. It tasted of burnt plastic. Just stunning. Fortunately the Dunkin's served espresso and Americanas. The attractions were 5 star. Kids loved it all. But every meal was a cringe. Good luck. read more

I recently visited Great Wolf in Webster TX fir a work-related meeting. The facility is nice overall but not what I would have chosen for a conference setting...but that's not the hotel's fault. Front desk service was quick and friendly. My room was clean and comfortable though calling it a "family suite" is a stretch for two queen beds and a table sitting area. I greatly appreciated having a small fridge in the room. Great Wolf is basically a large hotel centered around an indoor water park with a family friendly design--tile , not carpet in my room as an example. The hotel uses wristbands instead of keys for access control, which makes a ton of sense given the family orientation. Some minor downsides: this particular location sits off by itself. If you want to do anything away from the hotel you'll need to drive. In keeping with the family environment the lone restaurant/bar closes at 10 though the hotel "store" does have a small but decent selection of adult beverages and other snacks. Overall, nice spot for a family vacation. Clean and well-maintained. read more

I am actually surprised about the ratings of this place. I thought it was overall a great option for a family fun spot. Compared to the Grapevine location, it's about 2/3 as big, but it does the job. This facility is one of the newest ones so the technology is more advanced. The nightly ending show for the kids is surround sound and effects, with even "snow" (bubbles) to end the show. Otherwise all the other events during the days are the same: craft, story time, photo ops with the characters, dance parties, balloon animals. Drop offs at the roundabout, free. Parking is $19 per day with in/out privileges. Just scan your wristbands in and out. Like all the other locations, the wrist bands allow you to navigate through the hotel: unlock rooms, check out towels, pay for meals, etc. Staff was kind and courteous. Free wolf ears for guests. Park and hotel rooms are clean. Food courts available both in and outside of the water park. Plenty of places to eat completely out of the location if you want to take a drive. The park/hotel itself is located in a great area for food and shopping. We would definitely add this into our rotations of things to do. Great fun for the whole family! read more

A little on the fence. Loved that this location is still fairly new. Not a lot of food options like the one in Grapevine within the lodge. Also, noticed that on one of the nights both areas serving soft serve the machines weren't working right tried again the next day the same issue. The buffet was out of drinks and coffee on one end of the buffet area, had to go to the other side to get coffee and drinks. I loved the Fire Side restaurant food never disappointed. Alcoholic Drinks were always good but pricey. Our kids still enjoyed the waterpark, did all the slides and called it a day. They loved bowling and the arcade as well. We love the atmosphere and the fact they have events and activities through out the day. Rooms were clean, could use a microwave to reheat to go orders. Staff were friendly. Definitely worth coming for your little ones to take part in Magic Quest. The outside also had a nice walking area. It was nice to step out every now and then. read more

Great Wolf Lodge was a nice, quick getaway close to home and overall a fun experience for our family. I really appreciated that they offer a daily activity schedule for kids, it made planning the day easy. Our favorite activity was the morning yoga, which was a great way to start the day. The customer service on-site was strong. When our room wasn't warm enough, maintenance came up within minutes to fix it. When I needed extra towels, they were delivered quickly with no hassle. That level of responsiveness definitely stood out. The downsides are mostly around cost and communication. Expenses can add up fast between attractions and hotel amenities. I was also frustrated that the 800 number gave different information than the front desk. I was told ahead of time that parking would be free, but I was charged at checkout. I was also told an upgraded room would be available, but that didn't happen at check-in. Aside from those issues, if you're in Houston or a nearby city, this is still a fun, convenient getaway for families--just go in knowing to double-check pricing and policies ahead of time. read more

So I was looking for a fun place to go for spring break and I am so happy I chose GWL in Webster Tx. I had heard several accounts of family stays so I decided to try it. 4 hours from BR Louisiana via car. When you arrive you can check in via a kiosk and they have about 8. Be sure your name is EXACTLY as it appears on your license or you can't use the kiosk. I was surprised that on a Saturday there were only 3 ppl checking in. The line moved ok however I suggest a line(s) for check and another for guest questions. One family stood there trying to decide on adding the packages and I'm like this is the not the time or place..... Now I get it's a lodge but it's kinda dark too but maybe that is the vibe The water park is great for kids of all ages. The waterpark bathroom was immaculate! I'm serious 10/10 for the bathroom. It smelled good and there were no pools of water like I had experienced at other water parks The pizza is delicious. The chicken tenders had to much breading for my liking the funnel cake fries are good( don't walk away) the area by the concession stand is freezing and if you take to long to get back they will get cold The dance party was so fun. There was yoga in the morning and pajama party at night. After the pajama party some of the employees played red light green light with the kids I would definitely go back read more

Great spot for us since it's a short drive away. The water park itself is a decent size, but it would be even better with a few more thrill rides or a larger connected outdoor area. One big plus is the location, there are plenty of restaurants nearby, so you're not stuck eating inside. They also allow outside food and drinks, which helps a lot. That said, it can get pretty crowded depending on when you go. They offer package deals for the extra activities, and if you try everything at least once, it feels worth it. It's also nice to take breaks from the water park and do things like the ropes course, mini golf, adventure trail, and mini bowling. Food inside the park is reasonably priced and decent, so you don't always have to leave. We mixed it up with park food, DoorDash, and going out for a meal. Overall, it's a solid nearby indoor water park, and we'd come back again when there are good deals. The only thing that felt overpriced was the wand and topper for kids, $50+ just to walk around activating lights and features is a bit much. read more

We enjoyed our time here. I have a little one so it bring small was not a downside. The water was warm and we enjoyed our time in the park. The free activities are fun for small kids. The food is expensive so we ordered in or picked something up. I wish they had another option for breakfast though. It's either buffet or dunkin donuts. They do have a sales pitch while you're there for Hilton vacations. But the guy wasn't too pushy. read more

Great Wolf Lodge - This was almost $20 with tip. It was tasty though. - Resorts Near Me - Webster, Texas

We had such a great time at Great Wolf Lodge! Before I get into the whole experience, I want to mention how thoughtful it is to have this facility be Tree Nut and Peanut FREE!!! We told out daughter and she was so appreciative that she could have the ice cream and other treats around the property without having to worry about using her EpiPen. Once we arrived, there was a bit of a wait. I am not sure if there are options for online check-in but they should probably look into it. We arrived about 3:30 and didn't get to the front of the line until after 4:15. That's pretty wild . . .however, everything after this was up and up. All of the rides and activities are totally catered to kids! While my kids are strong swimmers, parents don't really have to worry about deep water unless they go too far into the wave pool. Our favorite ride was of course the River Run Canyon because all 4 of us got to enjoy it together. 5 people can fit though. The hotel room was very spacious...I was glad because some hotels are cramped however...the bathroom could be better! Overall...it was a good time! Don't forget the morning yoga routines and the dance parties at night!!! read more

We are so grateful to have this indoor water park within driving distance from Houston. Is it the greatest? No. But is it solid? Yes! They have a lot of deals on their website where you can get rooms basically free (cost of the water park). It's a good way to celebrate the kids with a mini trip/vacation. The twins love the bunk bed rooms, since we do not have it at home. I do have to complain that there is no conditioner in the bathrooms and no blow dryer. Which makes no sense for a water park. As far as the extras, I highly recommend adding the adventure pass for $149, only available at check in. Gives you unlimited activities for the whole group. I also do have to complain there is not enough chairs or the system is flawed. People leave their stuff and take up way too many seats. Often times I just have to put my stuff against the wall. Beyond that it's a great place for the family! read more

This by far is the WORST GREAT WOLF LODGE I've been too!! From complications at check in, to me leaving then coming back after a call from corporate AND THEN WAITING OVER AN HOUR AND 30 minutes for a manager to rectify, to the fridge not working, correct towels in the bathroom. The machine to bring the floats up for a slide stopped working TWICE while we were in line. If negative 5 stars was an option then that would be my review. However...Corey and the pre-med student whose name may be Aiden, lifeguards and shop workers were amazing. read more

Nope!!! Booked a room and a total of 6 day passes for my kid's birthday. We checked in on a Friday afternoon and my kids played at the Waterpark for an hour before closing. Me and my kid slept on the bathroom floor because he got sick and couldn't leave the bathroom. I won't elaborate. LOL The next morning I go downstairs to let them know we can't stay. I ask about a "rain check or possible refund" so we could try again a different day. I was told "we don't do that, but we can move the passes to another day, but will only honor two of those passes for another visit the following weekend" LOL OK, so I can bring myself, a 4 year old, my son and his friend next weekend and only be asked to pay for two day passes because I have two in the system already? Nope!!! I get to the counter after purchasing two day passes online for me and the 4 year old, approximately $175 that morning and i am told i do not have two tickets on file from the previous weekend. In fact, I am listed as a "no show", even though I was standing facr to face with staff in the lobby of the hotel. I asked to talk to management and maybe i could talk to the staff member that was assisting me. I was told "they won't remember you. You will have to purchase two more passes to get the boys in. ​But, we can give you a discount and only charge you $50 a piece." I was so upset and I did not want to have to buy more passes but it was for his birthday and he and his Best friend were so excited to finally get to enjoy The Great Wolf Lodge I paid for two more day passes at the discounted price of $50 a piece. The line behind me is growing and the manager was quick to leave that poor boy to deal with an unhappy customer and after attempting to invalidate any feelings I had of unjust treatment. The kids are getting antsy behind me because they just want to play. *Paid for a total of 8 day passes *A night in the hotel *Paid extra for "special attractions" inside the establishment *Kids played 1 hour the first weekend and 5 the second visit Why did the staff member that helped me the previous weekend not put any documentation of this interaction.? "Was he just pretendingto be typing in my in the computer for 15 minutes "fixing" it. He even said how sorry he was that my son was sooo sick at his borthday elebration and wanted to make sure he could enjoy it at a later date" No, it's not their fault he got sick. But, why go out of your way to tell me that I would still have credit, and it be honored. ???? So, it's gonna be a NO, from me. ​ read more

I am writing to formally escalate my complaint regarding our Father's Day stay at Great Wolf Lodge Webster. While I acknowledge your response, I must be clear that it does not resolve the issues we experienced. It is another apology that acknowledges problems but provides no accountability, corrective action, or meaningful resolution. This was not a minor inconvenience. This was a special Father's Day celebration with my family, and after years of choosing Great Wolf Lodge for our family traditions, this visit was one of the most disappointing hospitality experiences we have ever had. Your response states that these concerns will be shared with leadership; however, after the amount of time that has passed, I expected a thorough review and a resolution not another standard response that repeats apologies without addressing the actual impact on my family. I want to reiterate the seriousness of what occurred: We experienced repeated confusion and poor communication regarding our reservation and guest accommodations. We were provided unclear information regarding the meal package promotion, requiring unnecessary effort to obtain answers. My mother's wheelchair assistance concerns were unacceptable. We specifically asked before arrival about accessibility support and were not given the proper assistance or communication we were promised. There are cameras located near the entrance and waterpark counter area that should be reviewed to verify what occurred. I have retained documentation, including screenshots of conversations and video evidence regarding the condition of the room, including the soap dispenser issue. The room was not properly prepared for our arrival, which is unacceptable for a property charging guests for a premium family experience. The overall interactions with staff left us feeling dismissed rather than welcomed. We arrived at approximately 4:00 PM and departed around 7:30 AM because the experience became so unpleasant that we no longer wanted to remain. A Father's Day trip that was supposed to create positive memories instead became an experience we wanted to end as quickly as possible. The fact that we lost the value of our overnight stay because of these circumstances is extremely disappointing. I want to be clear: I am not requesting another generic apology. I am requesting accountability and a resolution. I am asking Great Wolf Lodge corporate leadership to: Conduct a complete review of this incident, including available camera footage and all documented communications. Provide a written explanation of the findings from your investigation. Address the failures related to accessibility assistance, guest communication, and room readiness. Provide appropriate compensation that reflects the seriousness of this experience and the impact it had on my family's Father's Day celebration. We have been loyal guests, which makes this situation even more disappointing. Loyalty should matter, and returning families should not feel ignored after bringing legitimate concerns forward. read more

We were a party of 5 adults and 2 kids. We stayed in the Grizzly Bear suite. The suite came with 1 king size bed, 2 queen size, and one full size (the couch pulls out into a bed). There were 2 bathrooms with showers, a mini fridge, and 3 TVs. The room was very clean when we arrived. There is a microwave in the ice room although they could have put a microwave into the suite. Check-in is through a self check-in kiosk. There are luggage carts available to help you move your belongings to your room easier. Employees were very welcoming and attentive. There is food available in the water park /MagiQuest/ropes course area, but there are restaurants within a 5-10 min drive. I recommend just eating at nearby restaurants instead of at the resort, at least the quality will be better. There is an indoor water park and outdoor water park. Outdoor water park was unavailable when we were there. You'll find a family friendly wave pool that isn't deep, a lazy river, and a good amount of slides for both kids and adults. For teens/adults I recommend going on the Alberta Falls, two body slides (High Paw Roller), and Texas Twirler (there are two different ones. The longer line on the left is more intense with a drop. The right one is more tame). Also, they don't have Forest Flume yet. I still think it's weird to see full grown adults swim with street clothes on (shirts) at the indoor water park. Parking is a nightmare. You'll be driving around searching for a closer spot. That wristband you have, wear it on your left wrist. You'll need it to scan to get into the room as well as leaving the parking lot (if you decide to eat elsewhere or shop). Overall, it's about 3 out of 5. The suites could have been designed better with a microwave, parking is a mess, and prices are expensive for an overnight stay. read more

This was our first Great Wolf experience. While there were some Pros, overall we were unimpressed. Coming here for the 1st time seemed confusing. Ultimately, this is a money grab. During spring break, a friend said they were going to come here for a waterpark day pass. I checked the prices and it was a whopping $100 per day during the week, $110pp on Friday and an astonishing $150pp on Saturday. There was NO WAY we were going to pay $500-$750 for our family to come here for a day. I then noticed an advertisement on their website for 40% off room rates (which include waterpark passes) so I checked a Thursday to Friday stay and was blown away at the $285 cost! We quickly booked a room (with added taxes and resort fees) and paid $375 for one night. (Still better than $500 for day passes). I downloaded the app so my reservation was easily accessible. The day before the trip, I checked the app for my reservation and it said I didn't have one. I freaked out a bit and called and the girl eventually found my reservation. No idea why I had 2 separate confirmation numbers. Frustrating. Check-in isn't until 4pm but a nice thing is that you're still able to go in the waterpark. We arrived around noon. We paid the $15 parking. (Parking is automatically added to your room charge but show proof you paid and they'll deduct it from your bill.) Building is beautiful and clean. Everything was really well done for the theme. There are a number of activities: high ropes course, mini golf, bowling, a playground. Unfortunately, they're all like $10+. (When booking the room I was asked if I wanted to add on these for an additional $350. No thanks. That's more than the room.) This is in addition to some wand activity that everyone was ga-ga for but seemed lame to us. (More of the money grab). Our oldest used $15 of her bday money to go on the ropes course. She enjoyed it. The waterpark was honestly unimpressive. There are 6 older kids/adult slides. Two 5-person slides, two 2-person slides and two single-person slides. Our first slide was one of the 5-person slides. While waiting behind the family in front of us, another group goes right past us... we comment on "line jumping" but apparently there are 2 separate lines despite no signage. The right side of the stairs is for the more tame slide and the left side (which we were in) took FOREVER. I would guess we waited 30-40 minutes. In addition, the lazy River was small and overcrowded. Wave pool was "meh." Our son spent most of the time in the basketball pool. The kid slides in the middle were ok. Lines no long. Like another reviewer said, the chlorine smell was overwhelming. I had the worst migraine in only my left eye on both days we were at the waterpark. My husband and I ended up laying outside on a lounge chair the whole 2nd day because we didn't want to be inside. Unfortunately again, the outdoor pool was not open. Despite the signs stating pool closed, we watched NUMEROUS people still go on. Hot tub was open and was PACKED. Ick. As for food: $18 burgers, $18 chicken fingers, pizzas for $25, soft pretzels $10. Kids meals for $11. When booking the room, offered the breakfast buffet for a whopping $90. (Egg prices are high but not THAT high.) No thanks, went out to eat aside from coffee and donuts for the kids at Dunkin in the morning. ($2/donut, coffee $4-5). Other confusing aspects: since check-in isn't assisted, we didn't know what our room we were in. Apparently we were texted it but since my phone was in a pool locker ($17 charge), we didn't see it. The girl at the desk was nice and told us. She also said to use our wristband for the parking. Unfortunately, our wristband didn't work at the parking kiosk and I had to go back to the front desk. Our room was ok. 2 queen beds and a pullout couch. Room was clean and comfortable but pretty bare bones. Wish they had a microwave in the room but I'm sure this is to encourage eating at their high-priced restaurants. All in all, I think this place is geared more towards little kids. Ours at 11, 9 and 8 seemed "too old" already. The kids had an ok time in the waterpark but even they weren't blown away. For $375 we got to go to the waterpark for 2 days (check-in day AND check-out day). This place is nice but just WAY too expensive with all the ads-ons. It was an experience but we're unsure if we will return again. read more

We went here when they were first opened so everything was brand spanking new and it was great. The Dallas location is so old and needs renovating so this was a refreshing stay. We stayed Friday-Sunday in a themed room. Check-in was super easy, parking was okay. The waterpark was clean, no water slides outside (just pool with water activities for kiddos and the hot tub area), and the restaurants were very clean and easy to get to. Gabe was the breakfast buffet. Everything closed early so we didn't get ice cream from the shop but Dunkin' was easy to get through the app in the mornings. Love the amenities and how easy it is to get here and everything around the Webster area. read more

BEWARE BEWARE!! if I can give this place negative reviews I would. I went to this CRAPPY Great wolf Lodge for the first time. To start they OVERCHARGED ME than what I paid for!! RIDICULOUS I AM NEVER COMING BACK. And I HOPE MANY PEOPLE SEES THIS REVIEW. I called FOR 2 DAYS using number provided on their website. They made me WAIT FOREVER more than 30 MINS TO AN HOUR just for them to hang up on me without answering. Mind you I called in the afternoon and today in the morning The TOTAL CHARGE I paid for SHOULD be **$794.21** I deposited $287.82 on July 7, and just for me to check my statement for a pending charge on July 13 $606.39. Now you do the damn math. 606.39+287.82=[894.21]. THATS NEARLY $900 DOLLARS. When I originally paid $794.21? Now tell me WHY ON GODS GREEN EARTH DID IT HIKE UP THAT MUCH.! I Would understand if it was 400 because that would've made sense. I also am a human and work my fucking ass off as well to pay for this vacation for my family but you guys are gonna OVERCHARGE me on something that I'm not notified about what the heck are y'all even doing? It was my fault for not checking the reviews before coming here because ONE STAR are HIGHER than the five stars. read more

I stayed here with my sister's family for one night. I have not been to an indoor water park facility like this but I thought it was an enjoyable place for the kids when it's cold out. There's ample parking, it's $20/night. You can include parking when you check in to the lodge. There are also luggage carts available for those with multiple bags, nice touch. There's a large statue of Wolfie out front and upon walking in there's a large fireplace to welcome you in. If you go into the gift shop, head to the register a team member will hand you some wolf ears when you give a big awoo! There's an arcade, a ROPES course, a mini golf area, and bowling. There's lots of activities for the kids to do. They also have crafting times and a scavenger hunt while we were there. My room was large, I like how there's lamps near the seating area and the beds. The smart TV has all of the apps you'd need to access. The sink is actually outside of your bathroom. The pool area is large, there's a kiddie area with smaller slides, and water activities, the wave pool is cool, the slides were fun, and the tube slides were really fun. My nephew and I had so much fun. If you stay over the weekend, I can see how the lines can get long. There's a bar inside the pool area and outside near the Fireside restaurant. We had dinner at Fireside. I had roasted chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans. It was good! If you tell them it's your birthday they can give you a nice birthday celebration and a free bluebell ice cream. All and all, it was a fun experience. read more

Great Wolf Lodge was our birthday gift to our girls. We planned this for months and I have to say the trip really met our expectations. The floors with rooms are quiet and calm. The room was super clean and brand new. The fridge was convenient for drinks. Staff was amazing for planned activities like the dance parties, bingo and arts and crafts. The waterpark was busy but there were never any lines for anything. We really enjoyed the outdoor pool on our last day. read more

Had a great time at this newer location of GWL. It's close enough to the city to be convenient but far enough to feel like a little getaway. My kids always have a blast between the waterpark, story time, and all the activities. The food is surprisingly good for a theme-park-style resort. We've been twice now -- it is pretty pricey and I still don't understand why we have to pay for parking, but overall it's a fun, easy family trip. We'll definitely be back. read more

Why 3 stars? Because it's a fun place to visit for the kids, but some improvements could help. --- --- --- We took our son here for his 6th birthday - waterparks and pretty much his favorite place on Earth, so he couldn't have loved it anymore. He also just barely surpassed the 42" mark, so this was his first time being able to ride some of the bigger rides. But there were just too many things here that bugged me, especially for a place that opened this year. 1) There are two rides that have those giant tubes where 5 people can ride at a time. The tubes are so big that there is a machine that sends the tubes up to the top, so that people don't have to carry them up themselves. But there were two major flaws with this: -One day, they literally only had two tubes in circulation for two rides. On the second day, they added a third tube, but this still caused the line to take an eternity. -The other thing that took an eternity was the fact that they did not combine parties. You would see a group of two or three people go at a time, and there was no effort by the workers to call out and ask for a party of two or three others that might want to join. With the wait for a tube already causing delays, this made the process maddeningly inefficient. We visited the park during a slower time between Thanksgiving and Christmas - so there were really no lines for any other ride, but we waited for 45 minutes one time for this one. 2) We went to the lobby because we saw it advertised that there was going to be some kind of snow thing for the kids. This was the most pathetic fake snow I have ever seen in my life - I cannot even do it justice to describe it. If you had been walking through the lobby at the time of this, you would not have even noticed it. You could literally barely even see the dust-sized bubbles floating around. It would have been better to do nothing, than to get 50+ kids to come to the lobby for that. 3) The table and chair in our room had very uneven legs, so as we sat there eating lunch, we we would wobble like we were drunk. Again, this property is only a few months old at this point, which is why it especially bothered me. 4) There is a small, indoor playground in between the lobby and the waterpark, but it costs $10 for 30 minutes, which is crazy when you are spending hundreds of dollars to come here already. 5) If you have older kids, or adults who still like to pretend they are kids (me), the "thrill" rides here are lacking. There were only two slides that required you to be 48" instead of just 42", but neither were that remarkable. They were fast, but did not have any big drops like you would normally see at a waterpark. 6) The only food/drink place we patronized was Dunkin Donuts and it was everything you'd expect from a Dunkin Donuts inside of a waterpark. The people working here were friendly, but the breakfast and the coffee was atrocious. Overall, I would recommend spending more, but getting a much higher quality experience at Kalahari in Round Rock, if you're looking to visit an indoor waterpark. The experience there is night and day compared to Great Wolf Lodge. read more

GWL in Grapevine is an annual family Christmas trip and has been for 12 years, but this year, we decided to try the new location in Webster due to proximity on our way home for the holidays. From the moment we arrived, I knew it lacked that "away" lodge feeling. It is poorly located behind "America's Largest Furniture Store" and next to a Top Golf. The check-in process could be done at kiosks, but as usual, if anything else is needed or incorrect, then into the long line you go. The rep, Cody, I believe, was very helpful, though, and besides a couple of delays, the process was overall smooth. Our room was ready despite being early, and was conveniently placed near but not too close to the elevators. However, it was bland and modern with a view of the top of a building. The beds were comfortable and good-size TV with a fridge but no microwave or safe. The "lodge" itself is rather small in comparison, which makes everything convenient, but results in a one-level Magiquest and little room for exploring. We spent the first evening at Fireside, restaurant and bar. A few beers later and order of loaded fries, our table was $160 with tip. It would have been nice to know that the advertised souvenir beer cup at the pool the next day would have saved us money. The waterpark area was nice and again easier to manage due to size. The food options were basically the same as Grapevine, but it seemed more expensive. After spending the earlier part of our day there, we wrapped up with the arcade, while our son hung out with a friend he met, and pizza from Hungry Wolf, which was just as good, for dinner. One thing I would like to point out was the lack of knowledge from some staff about the discount with the beer souvenir cup and no refill button to simplify it for staff and guests. Overall, it was expensive and not worth it even for the convenience. Grapevine will continue to be our location. read more

Pros outweigh the cons in general here. Opening date was sometime in August of 2024 which means they've had about 2-3 months of operation. I believe they're still figuring out a few tuning aspects that could make it better for guests. Let's start with the opportunities to improve: 1. Non-supervising lifeguard staff need more training or awareness of safety conditions in a preventive manner. Maybe teach them "think like a parent" as maybe a rule of thumb. Some are on point, the others seem to be going through the motion. They also don't work in collective pairs per station and I don't see them doing radios, sometimes a hand signal or two. 2. Different customer care and enthusiasm on between staff members. The more mature staff take al little more pride in due process and customer pleasantries. Some others, sort of do the bare minimum. To those getting by on bare minimum, remember alot of your patrons worked roles like yours once upon a time. Muster, and put on that customer service. 3. Somewhat disappointing to not see a supervisor tape off or put caution notices in the area even if it was a holiday for building maintenance teams on areas that pose a safety hazard. 4. No valet services. At $15/a day to self park with no covered or secured area, I'd rather just pay for a valet service so we have some peace of mind for our belongings in vehicles. Now for the areas that I believe they did well at: 1. There's scheduled events daily so it's "sort of" like a cruise, but in the evenings there's little dance routines I suspect to tire the kids out. It's something that I believe is a good idea. 2. A nice surprise, you get to have "wolf ears" for adults/kids if you go to their shop and "howl" for them. Though, what it really is a test of your parenting capability to say no to impulse buying within the shop. 3. Generically, compared to some competitors more activity options than just arcades. There's jungle gym area and a few more things, including a bowling alley. 4. In-building logistics - Plenty of self-check in kiosks and elevators. Only down side is that you need a drivers license, phone (or QR code), and the SAME credit card you used on file to reserve. If you don't have all 3 it'll force you to wait in line. 5. Parking Lot Logistics - Indeed, there are some dumb drivers, but then again, that's Houston- in general if you can read. Parking in/out isn't that awful but the curbs to turn into the gates are difficult for larger vehicles at those angles without opening the door. Prepare for a long walk people, I would drive up to the main entrance and make someone you don't like get out and get the cart and start wheeling it towards the lot while you find parking to move all of your stuff. Pro Tips: 1. Bring your own water, Webster water tastes like absolute ass and I'm sure there's Deer Park chemicals somewhere in there. Use the cart, and bring in your own 6-12 pack. 2. Just like every other family oriented resort. The pricing for food is moderately high, but not egregious. Expect a 20-30% markup. But if you're not filling the Dairy Queen mediocre quality type food. The front staff is cool with letting Door Dash in to deliver to your door. They don't do room service, even with placing orders ahead the "delivery" is only to the waterpark areas which I don't know how that's any more advantageous than just getting it yourself based on proximity. 3. Not really a such thing as early check in like a typical hotel regardless of status. Come in your swim wear or sports wear, 'check in', wait for staff to text you and enjoy water park or other things before then. They do early check out (like 11), so get your moneys worth just bringing crap to the car and then heading back in same day for water park. 4. Is your kid a light sleeper? Well, sucks to be you. While the walls aren't paper thin you can certainly hear the kids crying, screaming, or running. A newer facility has this in mind but there's only so much sound deadening any facility is going to have, The best you can do is get the room with the bunk beds which sort of "sandwiches" through wall isolation more of the sound. If you are over-loading your room with more than 2 kids, the sleeper sofa is just not practical. Spend the money on the larger room if you can. Competitor that starts with a "K" in Austin comparison: - Obviously, easier drive if from Houston area - Food is cheaper here, and of moderate quality but you're probably better off eating BBQ near by leaving the facility - Staff here isn't as consistent - No valet - Internet here is faster - Outlet plugs not all messed up for chargers - Smaller facility total size and feature size but makes up for it in diverse activities and closer Houston metro area proximity read more

Pros: - kids loved the activities - comfy beds - nice staff Cons: - overpriced (everything is a grift) - housekeeping did not regularly clean the room and when asked to they literally did half the room - management of the water park was lacking and kids were cutting in line all over the place - The eateries minus the fancy restaurant were either slow or would run out of food. Dunkin' ran out of break and had weak coffee. The informal restaurant took 45 minutes to fill an order - the wolf pass had an advertised set of swim goggles in some places but it was not honored. We took a picture and placed below. - and finally, when housekeeping cleaned the room and reset it for us, the TVs were logged in to the previous families streaming accounts. I wanted to make sure all of the TVs were logged out for us so someone couldn't buy a movie with our streaming services. Our kids are 3 and 6 and it was fun for them and it wasn't a horrible time but this place has some crazy red flags. read more

Horrible staff do not stay! I checked in went to waterpark when we came back that night to shower i realized water was coming up through the floor in the entire hallway of the room. No telling how much mold is in room 7111. They told me there were no rooms the. all the sudden there was a room I packed moved to be greater at midnight with a new room that did not have proper functioning AC. We had no choice but to stay in the wet floor room with towel on the floor. What's worse refused to do anything or compensate me for this trouble. read more

No No No Dont Go Here . Everything needs an overhaul. Poor customer service-Check in was ridiculous, kiosk didnt work, wristbands are printed, but you still have to stand in line for front desk to "fully" activate, to secure parking fees &:activate the cashless system. Parking cost a fee per day- this should be free. Rooms were overpriced- but decent. Only 2 elevators worked our entire stay. I had to use the stairs with my knee issues & heavy bags. Food was not affordable and tasteless. The food wait times had me wait 30 mins for boneless chicken bites; then I was informed they didn't have the flavor i chose; so I chose a different one and waited 15 more minutes, then was informed they didnt have that flavor either. Then I requested a cancelation and refund- only to still the charges on my credit card after I checked out of the hotel. Just ridiculous. Also the beverage dispensary is a joke and only give you a few seconds to fill your prepaid cup. This is a system I was unfamiliar with and obviously had difficulty just trying to get a full drink. Smh The waterpark is super small- the smallest lazy river ever seen; 1 hot tub outside in direct sun/ no cover & filled to the max with little kids. Overpriced cabanas. The bar inside couldn't make most of the frozen drinks on the menu. I was sent outside to the 2nd bar- and again - the bar tenders didnt have ingredients on the menu The inside waterpark was boring, no music playing, only a few waterslides . Very small park but they have passed on a BIG price tags to patrons. This park is not worth a dime. I am terribly disappointed and never was able to discuss this with a manager. No availability. Smh . read more

Great Wolf Lodge - Faulty drink dispenser - Resorts Near Me - Webster, Texas

Ok so the littlest ones loved everything about this place. The older kids were definitely ready to go after the second night. The front desk staff is still a little new. I had to go to the front desk daily to replace my wrist band in order to order food. I didn't take any pictures of the food because it wasn't worth it. The wings and pizza are pretty good. We bought a cooler with our own drinks and went out for doughnuts for breakfast. We had lunch on property but always got our own dinner for the kids. It was way cheaper to go get a family meal from Lupe Tortilla and bring that to the room. I had a group of 8 after all. Trust me everyone was envious of me when they saw the Lupe box that I was carrying through the lobby during story time. My advice is at least bring your own cooler. Also there is not a microwave in the room but there is one by the ice machine. read more

Way OVERPRICED!!! Yes, people come here for vacation but how about consider the neighboring communities of hardworking individuals who would like to still have family time. We had to leave and come back just to afford dinner for a family of four. The cashless facility and use of armbands is a great idea in theory but we had several issues and had to keep attending the desk to fix. It's catered towards very small children. My teen enjoyed the waterpark until it became way too overcrowded. Unfortunately we could not access any outside water park amenities due to rain on the Friday we arrived but Saturday was sunny and the outside remained closed. However, our room was clean and nice but please mop the floors. Our feet were dirty just from walking to and from the bathroom. read more

Review of Great Wolf Lodge | Webster I wanted to share my recent experience because I feel guests deserve transparency when booking. Birthday Cake Misrepresentation The birthday cake they advertise on their website is nothing like what you actually receive. Instead of a decorated cake, you get a plain white sheet cake stuffed in a taped-up cardboard box with absolutely no decoration. It felt misleading and disappointing, especially for a special occasion like a birthday. $100 Per Night Hold Policy At check-in, they place a $100 hold per night on your card for incidentals. While I understand the reasoning, this adds up quickly if you're staying multiple nights. Credit vs. Debit Card Refunds What is frustrating is that their written policy only states that the unused portion of the hold will be released "in as soon as 2-5 business days" after checkout. What they don't tell you upfront is that if you use a debit card, the return of funds is treated differently. When I called after noticing my funds were still unavailable, I was then told it could take up to 30 days for the money to be released back to a debit card. This is a huge difference and should be clearly disclosed before payment, not after the fact. Lack of Transparency Their website says: "We place a hold of $100 per night ... This hold minus any room charges is released back to your card by your financial institution in as soon as 2-5 business days after checkout." This statement does not distinguish between debit and credit cards, which makes it misleading for guests who pay with debit and may not see their money back for weeks. Final Thoughts Overall, the lack of clarity in their policies and the misrepresentation of services like the birthday cake left me very disappointed. Families go to Great Wolf Lodge for special memories, and both honesty in advertising and transparency in financial policies are critical. Until they improve in these areas, I cannot recommend them in good faith. read more

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO!! This place is for little kids. My son is 8. We booked 2 nights here and after one afternoon we had done everything and were ready to go. We ended up leaving and not stay the night for the first night. I would bring kids here under 6 years old. Any older than that and they will get bored fast. Key Points: 1. Water park is fun. We went on a day it was not crowded at all and the lines were long. If it was even half crowded the lines would be terrible. I felt everything was really slow and the hotel was not even 30% occupied. The outside pool is boring and nothing to do. After a few hours we had done everything and were ready to go. 2. Putt Putt is lame. They could have made this so much cooler and fun. They really skimmed on the budget here. 3. Bowling. It's small half court bowling with small balls. This is for really little kids. Under 6 is my guess who would enjoy this. 4. Arcade is Terrible. It's super expensive and the game are not good. Most of the games are ticket based and the prizes are terrible and over priced. There should be more games that are fun. They had several of those VR games which are $7/ride. You will blow $50 in a few mins and have nothing to show for it. 5. Parking - they have tons of land and everything is already expensive. Forcing you to pay and extra $15 a day to park I feel like Is an extra excessive punch in the gut. 5. EXPENSIVE - expect that everything here is double the normal price anywhere else. POSITIVE NOTES: - staff was very nice and friendly. - management was nice enough to refund our second night... which was very fair as we spent most of the day at the park. We never used anything in the room and arrived around 12:30 and left by 7pm. I'm sure a lot of people will love this place. It was just not for us. read more
