Staff is very very friendly. Traverse City has everything around the Great Wolf if you need to leave the resort. Meijer... more

Our stay was pretty good my 2 children had a blast and everything thing went smoothly when we got there. The first night in the room my daughter cut herself on a piece of glass in the room in her bed. We called for service and the room was cleaned again, it really put us out because it was about... more

I came to the Great Wolf on business and brought my husband and 4 year old along for fun. The water park was perfect for my 4 year old. The waterpark had activities for all ages. They also loved the arcade and Magic Quest game (run around the hotel with a wand on a treasure hunt). The 4 year old... more

This was the second stay at the Texas Location. This place is NOT a hotel. It is a themepark with a few rooms in it. You can't get a room until after 1:00, and have to be out by 11:00. I mean your electronic keys stop working at 11:00! Make sure you have not left anything in your room after... more

For the amount of money I spent ($300 for one night?) I expected a little bit more bang for my buck. For all intents and purposes, I am thrilled by the attention to detail that was invested in the property; however, the mattresses are the equivalent of concrete slabs. Literally. That was easily the worst nights sleep I've ever had... more

My kids (8 & 10)and I stayed here for 2 nights in November. It was the best get away- just what we needed. We stayed in the Wolf Den. It was very nice and very roomy, however they were a little bummed that I would not pay $10.00 to watch a movie or play video games. The room was clean... more

We've stayed at the Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky, but this was the first time at the Traverse City location. First the good-- Rooms here are nice. We had a Kid Kabin suite, which means the three kids got to stay in a little cabin, and mom and dad got the main room. The main room includes a queen bed... more

I buy a $50.00 gift card every two weeks so we always have... more
