FAQ:

Check-In Time

Answer:

Check-in time begins at 4pm or as rooms become available. However, you are welcome to play in the waterpark as early as 1pm. In the event that your room is not ready, we recommend that you pack a smaller bag with bathing suits and swim gear and leave the rest of your luggage locked in your car. Stop by the front desk to let us know you’re here and pick up your waterpark wrist bands. There are lockers, showers, and changing areas available for your use in the waterpark. We require guest checking in to be at least 21 years of age. Photo ID is required upon check-in along with credit card for incidental charges.

Asked by Martine from Hope Mills on 1/6/2010

Question:

We can't check in until 4 p.m. Can we enjoy the waterpark before check-in?

Answer:

Martine, of course you can enjoy the waterpark before check-in! That is one of the great things about GWL. You can arrive as early as 1pm on your check-in day to begin enjoying the waterpark. If your schedule allows, you can even stay until the waterpark closes on the day of your departure! I have one tip for you: if you plan on arriving early on the day of your arrival, pack a back specifically for the waterpark that includes your family's suits and other necessities. That way once you arrive at GWL, you can grab your waterpark bag and head to the front desk to let them know you've arrived and get your wristbands. Have fun!
