My credit card was charged $300 during an issue at the front desk with them receiving card payments. Insisted that the card was not charged, my card was charged 3 times for $100. After spending $800 for a one night room, we didn’t have much money to spend on the rest of the trip. Took my $100 purchase for food and drinks, and my id bracket was declined twice even know we paid upfront for the service. Card also has suspicious charged on it after we checked out. Very disappointed. Also my son is autistic, staff was not trained for dealing with children with special needs while trying to go down water slides.

Weather was not amazing, but you didn't have to leave the building for anything. Everyone was friendly willing to help. Clean clean clean! Grand kids love the water park. Magic quest is in need of some serious updating. Took two days to get the wand to work to complete the quest. As much as folks like to play this game and sink a ton of money to play it, it seems like the company can invest in new technology.

The water area was nice and clean. The room carpet was very gross. Beds and bedding are very uncomfortable. Prices are very gauged. 4.99 for a bottle of ice tea. The bar and grill restaurant didn’t have a bar tender so they wouldn’t even serve the kids milkshakes or anything and the food was super gross and expensive. I mean really gross. If we ever go back we will definitely bring all our own drinks and eat at restaurants not at the hotel. And bring our own bedding. They seriously need to clean the carpets in the rooms. Not just vacuum actually clean them cause they are nasty.

Kids loved the water park. Two years ago, we took our grandchildren to the Wolf Lodge in Massachusetts and liked that one more. We liked the Halloween decorations. It would have been nice if there was a "real" magic show. The event that was posted as a Monday morning activity was only for the exclusive higher-paying guests in the Paws program. Kids were disappointed when they arrived at the lobby at 10:00 am and turned away. We reserved 2 rooms - 162 and 177. Carpets were in need of replacement. We didn't want kids sitting on the floor. A separate "baby" pool is required. Why were kids under 2 allowed in the hot tub? Unsanitary with diapers on. Plumbing needs repair in room 177, the bathtub valve was so loose the water temp kept fluctuating and had to be reset and held by hand when in use. With a broken valve hot water could scald young children in tub. Why is there a $30 towel charge on my charge card without prior approval? There was no notification at the waterpark at the time towels were accepted....also no verbal notice from attendant or sign posted? Liked the Dunkin Donuts option but the line was too long. We didn't spend much time eating at the Lodge restaurant because breakfast buffet prices were exorbitant for small children who don't eat much.

Fun place to break up the Traverse City experience and give the kids a fun place to play after being out and about all afternoon.

Checking in the associate wasn’t friendly. Tried to talk me into those passes. When I asked if I can add them on at a later time she looked at me and was silent. I had to repeat myself and then she said yes. When leaving, maid knocked on my door at about 9:40 and woke my kids up after knocking twice. If checkout is at 11am why did she knock on my door at 9:40? When I went to the door and explained we would be checking out bu 11am she rolled her eyes at me and said ok. Being treated poorly by staff leaves a bad taste in my mouth when considering returning.

My family and I stayed for two days. The hotel is dated, and we were not told upon check in that the cleaning service would not touch our room unless we requested. So we had no coffee or restocked towels. The Dunkin Donuts coffee shop inside is open whenever they have staff, and most days it closes at 1pm or sooner. The restuarnent had limited selection, and waitstaff was slow to take, bring orders even though the place wasn't crowded. We also ordered coffees with our dinner, which were never brought. We asked to have them taken off our bill and the waitress seemed annoyed with request. She never came to check on us once food was served, or to refill our waters. Food inside the water park was decent, but horribly overpriced as is everything else there. Arcade was good, all our games worked. Water park was okay; lots of unruly teens goofing off in lazy river and lifeguards do nothing. Three slides with super long lines. Bathrooms in the waterpark were gross. There is no pool that is deeper for adults. My kids were bored by second day. They are a cashless resort which is annoying. I was charged double for everything, and have been attempting to get the extra funds back. Its been a nightmare. And according to trip Advisor and Yelp, the constant over and double charging is a constant thing with a lot of people. We will not be going back and we've been going yearly since they opened.

Everything was perfect. Lots for the kids to do. Everything you need available on site. Staff was one of the friendliest I've seen in a while. My only two complaints are 1. Everything closes a bit too early for my family. Waterpark closes at 8, Everything else closes at 10. I get staffing is probably the reason but I wish one food place was open later. Having a high maintenance toddler it is hard for us to not have food options available when we need them. 2. I'm not sure if this issue was with Great Wolf or Expedia.com. I booked my stay through Expedia and was a bit nervous when I showed up and they couldn't find my paid for reservation. Eventually the girl at the desk said she assumes they got my name wrong somehow. I had proof of my reservation in my email but after driving a long distance its scary to hear them not be able to find your reservation.

The staff was very friendly. We were pleasantly surprised with all the Halloween activities they had for the kids. The only complaint I’d have is if I’m paying over $200 a night I’d like my room cleaned daily or at least the option to have it cleaned and I think the adult hot tub should be opened later then 8pm.

First I feel stupid - I paid 60 more per night with expedia - should have check on the great Wolfe website — second, the place is completely understaffed. There are lines for everything: coffee, restaurant, ice cream store, elevator, not enough tables in the water park. The park was nothing special but is good for younger kids, everything is really tries your patience.
