![]() Food at the Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania The hotel also offers Wolf Walks, where kids are given a tour of the hotel and educated about wolfs. First, the clock tower animatric characters tell a story, then a Great Wolf Lodge staff member reads a story to the children. In the evenings, the Great Wolf Lodge offers a pajama story time in the lobby by the clock tower. The Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania also has an arcade, indoor mini golf, mini bowling alley, and a kids’ spa. My kids enjoyed following the story, and loved the little personalized books they got at the end, but it’s definitely more appropriate for younger guests. ![]() We also played Story Explorers, which is similar to MagiQuest but geared to younger kids. My kids were obsessed with the game and wanted to stay longer at the hotel just so they could continue playing. Most of the game takes place over four wings located across two floors of the hotel, and while we played we saw kids of all ages – from about 4 to 18. To play, you purchase a wand and pay for activation, then head to the electronic trees to sign up for a quest. My kids also really enjoyed MagiQuest, which is an interactive game at resort. However, to visit the water park, you must be a guest of the hotel. A snack counter, bar, and store are all open to guests of the water park, and you could easily spend the entire day just at the water park. The whole water park is heated to 84 degrees at all times, and the water is nice and warm. There’s also a lazy river, a wave pool, a splash structure, and an activity pool (with basketball hoops). Mine weren’t able to go on all of the water slides (they are both under 48 inches), but were able to go on several of the larger slides with us and on all of the smaller slides alone. It’s clean, well staffed, and lots of fun for kids of all ages. Obviously, the indoor water park is the big draw here, and it doesn’t disappoint at all. Attractions at the Great Wolf Lodge Pennsylvania There were lots of great options – including some food that the kids really enjoyed. I didn’t read great things about the buffet online, but we were pleasantly surprised. Usually, there is both an a la carte and buffet option for dinner, however, because it was so crowded, they were only offering the buffet. Although we may not have done all of these things without the pass, it was definitely a great deal.īecause it was snowing when we arrived, we didn’t even consider leaving the lodge for dinner. ![]() I added the Paw Pass for each of my kids, which cost about $65 each and included a MagiQuest wand, activation of the wand, tokens for the arcade, a candy cup from the gift shop, a game of bowling, a plush toy with outfit, and Story Explorers. Upon check-in, you can choose to purchase the bundled packages if you want to do anything beyond the water park (which is included in the room rate). Although we were there before check-in time, our suite was ready, so we were able to get to our room right away. We didn’t require luggage assistance, but it was available. We arrived during the start of a snow storm, so it was definitely busy at the front of the hotel. When you first arrive at the Great Wolf Lodge, you have the option to either self park or valet for an additional fee. I thought the hotel did a great job of managing the crowds well though – we never felt overcrowded or cramped. The week between Christmas and New Year’s is typically very busy, and the lodge was completely occupied while we were there. I visited the Williamsburg, Virginia location last year when on the Virginia Family Fun and Food media trip, and knew my kids would love it. The Great Wolf Lodge is a chain with locations throughout North America in the United States and Canada. Review: Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania, A Poconos Indoor Water Park
