Is this a good resort for a 1 1/2 yr old? We are looking to stay just for the weekend. Will it be hard to keep track of him? Are there toddler pools or smaller activiies for him to enjoy?
Great question. This is a great resort for young children. There are many different areas for a little one to have some fun. Fort Mackenzie offers room for them to climb and explore. Gushin Geyser offers a very shallow pool and slide, with water "eruptions" every few minutes. Totem Tower has slides just for the little ones, so you won't have to worry about the "big kids" getting in the way. Right next to the wave pool is a great kids area with hoses, a small slide, and even stationary jet-skis that the kids can "ride". If you visiting in the summer, you can add Thunder Bay to the list of great activities. All this is just what is available in the water-park!! In the hotel, you have Cub Club, the Clock Tower Show, the Wolf Walk and much much more. I think you will run out of time before activities while you are at the GWL. I hope you enjoy your stay.

Is GWL an appropriate place to bring a 4-year-old and 18-month-old?
Hi Lauren! Great question! Yes, I think GWL is a wonderful place to bring a 4-year-old and 18-month-old. There is a wide range of activities and slides for all ages. The waterpark consists of seperate areas/rooms with different play areas and slides. One awesome thing about GWL is that each seperate area has a kiddie pool to play in as well. So even though you have a little one, you don't get "left behind" in the kiddie area like at some other waterparks. When we first started visiting GWL, our kids were 5 and 2. They both had an absolute blast! Our oldest was all over the waterpark enjoying everything in site. Our youngest loved splashing in the kiddie pools and the wave pool. There are also activities outside of the water to enjoy. For example, each night we all go down to the Clock Tower in our pjs to listen to Story Time. Our kids always love the stories! There is so much to do at GWL that I think your 4-year-old and 18-month-old will have a spectacular time! Thanks! Heather
Nightly Story Time is a great way to end of your day of play at Great Wolf Lodge. Wear your pajamas and enjoy favorite bedtime stories by the fireplace in the Grand Lobby. Stay afterwards and snap a photo with Wiley or Violet while you give them a high-paw.
Come and explore with us! Wolf Walk is a nature hike where kids and families learn to howl together. Take a morning walk around our Grand Lobby and learn about the many animals of the Northwood. Everyone will enjoy making a souvenir origami wolf!
Don't miss the Great Clock Tower friends as they come to life in the Grand Lobby!
Show Times: 10:00 a.m., 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.
