Great Wolf Lodge Review

About 7 miles west of the Historic Area, this large theme hotel built of logs to resemble a rustic Rocky Mountain lodge is geared to families with children. A whimsical theme prevails (the two cafeteria-style restaurants are named Loose Moose Cafe and Camp Critter Bar & Grille), but despite the rusticity, the star of the show is a monstrous indoor water park featuring a plethora of pools and water slides. Adults can spend their leisure hours being pampered in the full-service spa. While a few guest rooms have hot tubs and fireplaces geared to grownups, most carry on the family theme, with log cabin-like areas set aside for bunk beds. A few larger units have kitchens. Only the hotel's guests can use the water park, whose admission is included in the room rates.

Facilities:
5 restaurants; 2 bars; babysitting; children's programs; health club; Jacuzzi; pool; room service; spa; watersports equipment

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
