Partnership with IBCCES - Leading the Pack For Accessibility and Inclusion at Indoor Water Park Resorts

Great Wolf Lodge is proud to announce a partnership with The International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES), the global leader in autism and neurodiversity certification.  As part of this partnership, IBCCES helped us develop a sensory guide for each slide, pool, ride, attraction, show and activity found at Great Wolf Lodge.  We hope this downloadable guide provides a valuable and convenient tool for sensory-sensitive guests as they plan their visit to our resort.
