It was nice place to stay.. rooms were very clean. our granddaughter had a good experience for her 3rd birthday. The quality of the food in the main restaurant was in need of help especially with the pricing of our meals..purchase real eggs not substitute eggs would, a steak with flavor and tenderness not bland and tough, drinks were good..the pizza at the hungry wolf was good.

Everything you need is here! Little pricey but you pay for convenience.have a nice tiki bar in water.park that makes killer mix drinks. Smart thing to do is go next door to meijers and buy booze and bring your own plastic cup! The staff and lifeguards really do pay attention and care about your safety! I fell out of my tub and the life gaurd was right there before i could pop up making sure i didnt need help then asked if i was okay and and supervisor was there right away before i climed out juat to double check! I was fine! I caused the flip out of tube playing around! The rooms are comfy! And depending on room depends how unique they are!

GWL has been a great experience for our family for many years. We came when my kids were all in grade school. This year we came with my children and grand children! My only disappointment is to pay for parking. We had three cars for two days. We could have stayed another night for the cost of all of us to park. Overall, it’s a great experience and I highly recommend it!

Food was alright from the in store restaurant. Prime rib wasn’t steakhouse quality but still enjoyed it. Pool area was fun the kids complained the water was cold and I would have to agree it was kinda cold but otherwise it was fine. Arcade the kids had a good time. Our room was very clean and tidy but the shower wouldn’t drain. We would stay again if using coupons for a discounted rate

The room was in great condition, however the noise in the hallways and above us was very loud and kept our children up. The walls are very thin and i think a noise ordinance should be in place seeing as how it is a kid friendly place.
