Great Wolf 2011

We took the kids to Great Wolf Lodge for a few days of relaxation. Overall the resort was top notch and totally geared towards family. To save some money, we brought our own food for breakfast and lunches.

Here are some photos of the resort.

The grand living room with the wolves resting on the fireplace stones. They would howl every now and then.

Here are the forest friends, moose, owl, bear and tree, who would put on a show every morning and every evening.

A closer look.

They had an awesome arcade. We spent $75 on the first night!!! Grandma and Isaac had lots of fun gambling with some of the coin machines. Claire was also really good at one of the coin slot games. You had to put in a coin and try to get it through various numbered holes which would give the same amount of tickets. She got it through the 30 hole twice.

Fun in some of the ride-ons.

More scenery pics. Claire talking with the moose.

Every night they would do story time with the forest friends. You would get dressed up in your PJs and grab a spot on the floor. At the end of the story, they would do the Great Wolf howl.

Playing in the gift shop after story time.

We also took the kids to the clubhouse. Jacob played in the toy centre.

The other 2 did some arts & crafts. Isaac coloured Claire a t-shirt.

The best family picture we could get.

Somehow we forgot to take waterpark photos but it was really awesome. There was something for everyone. Isaac loved all the waterslides, Claire loved the wave pool, and Jacob...well, let's just say he liked the hotel room! He didn't go in the water at all. It was a lot to take in for him and he was playing catch-up with his naps.

We totally recommend it for all families and are looking forward to making this an annual trip from now on.
