For $20 you got your car washed by their staff, and the money was donated to a charity (I can&#8217;t remember, but I think it was cancer-related). You also got a pass for 4 people to the waterpark. It could be used once during the following 12 months on non-holidays, Monday to Thursday. Well, I looked at my voucher recently and saw that it expired on Sunday, so this past Tuesday we went swimming for free.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few thoughts\/observations\/comments from our trip:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We were there for a little less than 3 hours.<\/li>\n<li>At different times, the kiddie pool, and the wave pool had to be closed. I think a small kid did something in the pool.<\/li>\n<li>On the one hand, that was annoying, on the other hand, we were there around dinner time, so the park really cleared out as people went to eat.<\/li>\n<li>It has been open for a few years now, but things look as good as ever.<\/li>\n<li>The outdoor pool was open. We went outside, to try it, but the air was still too cold, so we came back in.<\/li>\n<li>One of my sons loved the two waterslides near the tipping bucket.<\/li>\n<li>They have\u00a0 a couple of cool bathing suit dryers. You put your bathing suit in, and it spins them around fast to wring them out. It works great.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I can&#8217;t say enough good things about the Great Wolf Lodge. We didn&#8217;t get a chance to stay this winter (when it&#8217;s cheaper), and I can&#8217;t wait until the next time we go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last May the Great Wolf Lodge held a fundraiser car wash.
