Our Story

Great Wolf Lodge originally started as Black Wolf Lodge in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin in 1997, and was one of the country's first indoor water park hotels. From here, we grew into a place where families could escape together, play together, and connect in a way that only a fully immersive resort experience makes possible.

Great Wolf Lodge Atlanta / LaGrange sits at 150 Tom Hall Parkway in LaGrange, Georgia, in the foothills of the Georgia Piedmont, just southwest of Atlanta. The lodge opened in spring 2018 as the 16th lodge to join the Great Wolf Lodge family, bringing our indoor water park resort experience to the Peach State.

LaGrange may be a smaller town, but it is big on family fun. Your pack can explore the landscaped gardens at Hills & Dales Estate, and West Point Lake is the place for boating, fishing, and a picnic by the water. The LaGrange Art Museum has beautiful exhibits to take in, too. For a bigger day out, Atlanta favorites such as the Georgia Aquarium, Zoo Atlanta, and Stone Mountain Park round out a family trip to Georgia.

As Great Wolf Lodge has evolved, we've continued to innovate:

2000s:

  • Great Wolf Lodge opened its second location, in Sandusky, Ohio, originally called Great Bear Lodge, beginning the journey to becoming America's largest group of indoor water park resorts.
  • Great Wolf Lodge goes international, opening its first location outside the United States in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.
  • We added an interactive magical scavenger hunt game called MagiQuest at all lodges.

2010s:

  • We added indoor adventure parks, complete with ropes courses, rock walls, and other attractions to complement our water parks.
  • The GWL (Great Wolf Lodge) Scholarship was founded. To date, more than two million dollars has been distributed to Pack Members and their families to support their educational goals.
  • Lodges began special seasonal activities and events that have included things like a life-size gingerbread house during our winter Snowland, giant spiders made from balloons during Howl-O-Ween, and duck racing down waterslides during the Summer Camp-In.

2020s:

  • We launched The Great Wolf Pack, an exclusive animated series, featuring our beloved characters, including:
  • Wiley Wolf – The adventurous, energetic leader of the pack. Wiley is curious, brave, and always ready to explore something new.
  • Violet Wolf – Wiley's sister. She's creative, kind, and loves music, art, and helping friends solve problems.
  • Brinley Bear – Friendly, thoughtful, and dependable. Brinley enjoys nature and often brings a calm, encouraging perspective to the group.
  • Oliver Raccoon – The inventive tinkerer. Oliver loves building gadgets, experimenting, and figuring out clever solutions.
  • Sammy Squirrel – Full of enthusiasm and optimism. Sammy is playful, energetic, and always excited to join the next adventure.
  • We celebrated 25 years of making family memories.
  • At Great Wolf Lodge LaGrange, Barnwood, our rustic yet elegant a la carte restaurant, serves Lodge Crafted creations and local wines in a comfortable setting to provide a delicious but relaxed sit-down dining option for guests.
  • We rolled out private cabana rental options complete with covered seating, mini-fridge, safe, TV, towels, overhead fan, and space for up to eight guests at all water parks.
  • We opened three new fourth-generation lodges in 10 months – our biggest expansion at one time.

Today, with 23 lodges across the United States and Canada, we're proud to welcome more than 10 million guests each year. As we've expanded, we've worked hard to make sure there's a Great Wolf Lodge a short drive away, no matter where you live.

Rooms Built for Families

At Great Wolf Lodge LaGrange, our guest suites are designed with families in mind. Unlike a standard hotel room, our suites are built for families, with layouts that sleep five to 13 guests, so families can be together with enough space to relax after a day of fun.

Each lodge is a little different, but they all feature themed suites which embrace the Northwoods feel, including a separate kids' sleeping area with bunk beds built right into the room, turning bedtime into part of the adventure. Unlike a standard hotel, we love to embrace the fun of a weekend get-away with kids.

At Great Wolf Lodge LaGrange, there are 457 suites across eight suite types. Our Family Suites offer 365 square feet, with two queen beds and a full sleeper sofa for up to six guests. The Deluxe Queen Suite sleeps up to five with two queen beds and a twin sleeper sofa. Many suite types also come in a version with a patio or balcony. To make it easy to get to and from your room, the lodge has five guest elevators.

Themed suites put kids' fun front and center. The KidCabin Suite has a queen bed, a bunk bed, and a twin bed, plus a full sleeper sofa, for up to seven guests. The Wolf Den Suite pairs a queen bed with a bunk bed and a full sleeper sofa for up to six.

Premium suites have room for extended families and groups traveling together. The Grizzly Bear Suite offers 808 square feet, with two bedrooms, a king bed, two queen beds, a full sleeper sofa, and two full baths for up to eight guests. The Deluxe Wolf Den Suite sleeps up to eight with three queen beds, a bunk bed, and a full sleeper sofa. The Deluxe KidCabin Suite sleeps up to 13 with three queen beds, a bunk bed, a day bed, a full sleeper sofa, and two full baths in 765 square feet. Accessible versions of many suite types are available.

Every suite comes with a mini-fridge, a coffee maker, and a hair dryer. Irons and ironing boards are available on request. Microwaves are available for shared use in the vending area on each floor. Our spacious suites give families more time to make memories together and less time to worry about logistics.

Free Daily Events

Every lodge offers free daily activities for everyone who is staying overnight or visiting with a Day Pass. All these events are family-friendly and include things like morning family yoga, story time, character appearances, arts & crafts, games, and our signature nightly family dance parties.

Character appearances feature the Great Wolf Pack cast — Wiley Wolf, Violet Wolf, and their friends — which we know are meaningful for younger guests. We pay special attention to all the details to make sure our music is fun (and PG rated) and all activities work for every age group and ability level.

At the LaGrange lodge, the daily lineup includes Yoga Tails, Meet the Great Wolf Pack, Arts & Crafts, Epic Story Time, the MagiQuest Ceremony, and our Dance Party.

Attractions

Beyond the water park, Great Wolf Lodge LaGrange is full of attractions for every age. Test your courage on the indoor Howlers Peak Ropes Course, balancing on ropes, crossing bridges, and climbing through obstacles from the safety of a climbing harness. Then take on the 28-foot Rustic Ridge Climbing Wall. The Yards by Topgolf Swing Suite is a family gaming den where you can fire dodgeballs at zombie invaders, pitch a perfect strike, or kick your way to victory. Play nine holes of indoor Howl in One Mini Golf or roll a few frames at Ten Paw Alley mini bowling. Pan for gemstones at Oliver's Mining Co., then visit Northern Lights Arcade and Build-A-Bear Workshop.

MagiQuest is one of the attractions outside the water park that sets Great Wolf Lodge apart from other water park resorts. It turns the lodge into a live-action interactive fantasy adventure game where guests are the star. Players choose a magic wand, top it with extra powers, and set off on a quest throughout the lodge.

Every day, the MagiQuest Ceremony welcomes our newest members into the order of the Magi. Check the Great Wolf app for event details.

Water Park

Water Park Attractions

The indoor water park is the heart of every Great Wolf Lodge: a massive, climate-controlled space kept at a comfortable 84°F year-round, regardless of the weather outside. Inside the water park, expect pools, slides, toddler areas, a giant water-tipping bucket, and much more.

At Great Wolf Lodge LaGrange, the indoor water park covers 100,000 square feet. Adventure seekers head for Wolf Tail, where the floor drops out from under you into a nearly vertical 20-foot free fall and a 360-degree, high-speed loop. On Triple Thunder, a high-speed four-person raft ride, your pack circles two saucers and glides up the sides of a funnel before a huge splash. Otter Run is a high-speed body slide full of quick turns and tunnels, and Rapid Racer lets you race your family or friends to the bottom. River Canyon Run takes the whole family down a twisting, turning raft ride together.

For a slower pace, float the Crooked Creek lazy river, catch the swells at Slap Tail Pond, our wave pool, or shoot hoops at Chinook Cove. Cross the floating lily pads and cargo nets at Big Foot Pass, or climb the four-story Fort Mackenzie treehouse, filled with interactive water toys and body slides. Totem Towers has gentle slides sized for small and tall alike. Our youngest guests have their own spaces: Cub Paw Pool welcomes toddlers with geysers, tiny kiddie slides, and rainbow-colored jet skis with water cannons on the way to an 18-inch "deep" end. Whooping Hollow has smaller slides with gentle slopes, just right for little ones.

Outside, the Raccoon Lagoon pool opens seasonally, weather permitting, with a three-foot, six-inch deep play area and plenty of poolside seating. The whole pack can also unwind in the warm Northwoods Springs. The water park is included with every overnight stay, and Day Passes are available for families visiting for the day.

Safety

At Great Wolf Lodge we take safety seriously. We are proud to have a partnership with Ellis & Associates, the global leader in aquatic safety and risk management. Every lifeguard at our facility is trained through the International Lifeguard Training Program™ (ILTP®). This training includes advanced water rescue techniques and emergency care. Lifeguards must pass both written and practical evaluations and maintain proficiency through regular testing and certification renewals.

We also use the Ellis Aquatic Vigilance System (EAVS) which uses high-definition analytic cameras to help monitor every body of water in our lodges. We combine our diligent and well-trained on-deck lifeguards with the live feeds monitored by a certified lifeguard in the onsite control room to provide even more attention to safety.

Local Events

Sports fans can plan a trip around a game, with the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the Braves at Truist Park, and the Hawks at State Farm Arena. Closer to the lodge, Sweetland Amphitheatre in LaGrange adds more family fun to a weekend away.

Our Values

We take our company values seriously and incorporate them into how we treat each other and guests.

  • We Are One Pack: We help every Pack Member feel they belong. We assume positive intent, and listen with empathy and curiosity.
  • We Improve Every Day: We always reach for more. We value feedback as fuel for growth and stay adaptable in the face of change.
  • We Get It Done With Care: We're creative in finding solutions, take pride and ownership in our work, and we celebrate the wins — big and small.

Accessibility

To support our mission of Bringing Joy to Families, we want all kids to feel welcome and supported in our lodges.

Sensory Accessibility

We have partnered with the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES), an organization that specializes in autism and neurodiversity training. You'll find sensory guidelines to help evaluate all water slides, pools, attractions, arcade, shows, and activities. Each item is rated and described for expected sound, lighting, touch, smell and movement. This allows families to plan activities based on their child's sensory preferences before arriving at the lodge. We know, with many kids, a little planning goes a long way.

As part of the IBCCES partnership, Pack Members receive training designed to help them better support autistic guests, sensory-sensitive children, and neurodivergent families.

Physical Accessibility

For guests with physical disabilities, we work hard to ensure guests can experience as many attractions as possible. We offer ADA-compliant guest rooms, accessible entrances and parking, pool lifts, sloped entries, or transfer systems (depending on the attraction), and closed captioning or transcripts for certain entertainment experiences, including MagiQuest content where applicable.

Service animals

Great Wolf Lodge permits trained service animals throughout the resort, including most public areas. Because of health regulations, service animals are not allowed in or immediately adjacent to pools, but they are welcome in other accessible areas of the water park.

Our Leadership

Great Wolf Resorts is led by a team of experienced hospitality professionals united by a shared passion for families, team members, and operational excellence. We are proud that many of our lodge General Managers and Assistant General Managers start as front-line Pack Members. Supporting Pack Members and providing training and professional development is part of how we Improve Every Day both at lodges and at our corporate support center, in Chicago, Illinois.

The General Manager of the LaGrange, Georgia lodge is Tyler Pellerin, supported by an experienced and professional staff leading Aquatics, Attractions and Retail, Engineering, Entertainment, Finance, Food and Beverage, Group Sales, Guest Services, Housekeeping, Human Resources, Security, and Technology. There is always a manager on duty to support guests with anything they may need during their stay.
