"Snowland" at Great Wolf Lodge

Monday November 28, 2005
Great Wolf Lodge is one of the top resorts with indoor waterparks in that top town for indoor waterworks, Wisconsin Dells; and Great Wolf Lodge is leading the pack in building new properties in other states. Latest opening is in the Great Wolf Lodge Poconos, pictured right: with great-looking rustic chic, all-suite guestrooms, and a 78,000 sq. ft waterpark.

Snowland - photo courtesy of Great Wold Lodge As if the waterpark wasn't enough fun, Great Wolf Lodge has launched a new holiday tradition: from Dec. 2 to Dec. 31, "Snowland" will transform the resort's Grand Lobby with snowflakes, icicles, and indoor snow (though guests can still sit by the fire and sip hot choc.) Snowland also means many themed holiday events...

Other Great Wolf Lodges -- in Sandusky OH, Wisconsin Dells, and more-- have Snowland too. continued below...
