The Sandusky, OH location is super small and doesn’t have enough rides. I highly recommend that you someday visit one of the bigger locations like this location in Northern Texas due to it having more and bigger rides! I also hope that the Sandusky location gets expanded someday like the one in the Poconos did.
@@zandernauta7918 yesss! It’s been 3 years now but I definitely still want to check out some of the bigger locations, the rides are fun but can get sort of repetitive after so many times lol. Also, me too! Really hoping they get a nice expansion :D it’s definitely fun for a while though
The location in Fitchburg, MA is the only location that features 2 full sized water parks. One of them has 2 tube slides known as Alberta Falls and a body slide known as Otter Run. The other water park has a family raft ride known as River Canyon Run, a Giant Funnel ride known as Howlin’ Tornado, and a trapdoor body slide known as Wolf Tail. I highly recommend this location!!!🤗
@Olivia 757 Yes, including everything at GWL! Great Wolf Lodge has turned from a happy, howling heaven (2010-2018) into a gloomy hell (2019-present). I'm still completely homesick for the 2010-2018 activity at Great Wolf Lodge including the Kids character mascots.
I’m planning to go to great Wolf Lodge but I don’t have to wait long time because if we go on like a D in the girls called in for one day it’s gonna cost a bunch of money so we’re gonna have to reschedule
Going January 4th 2021 and last time I went (august 18 2020) I road howling tornado and my eyes got bigger than my goggles on that drop! Can’t wait to go :)
I just can't stand the new Wiley and Violet suits. They are far, far less as attractive compared to the old looks. Why couldn't they just make identical copies of the old ones? The old Wiley and Violet were super adorable. They had puffy cheeks and kid-friendly faces. I especially loved the old Wiley with his forest ranger outfit. That made him look so cute.
My guess is money.. and mass production. And it sucks.. we have the new Wiley and Violet suits in Niagara, and none of the staff like performing in them.. we only got them because the Violet suit we had since 2011 fell apart - and our location wanted to get Sammy Squirrel (that one's ok - she can move her neck) Due to the poor quality of the 2019 version, Niagara actually kept the older Wiley around when the new version is out for cleaning, and are still using the previous suits for Oliver, Brinley and Rachel.
I work for the company and all I can say that they are getting fixed 🙌. They were made from international mascot company that is a cheap mascot company. They only got those suites because the old ones kept hurting the entertainers necks and body.
@@btw_reaper5682 Let's hope so - the Great Wolf Kids deserve better. Hopefully the new suits(if this is true) will be closer to the 2013 ones (but being more performer-friendly) and not the 2019 versions. Probably explains why they ditched plans to replace Rachel Raccoon's costume..
@@digiblader1 I agree im not much of a fan of new Wiley and violet I much prefer the old ones but is it true the old ones are coming back to all of the lodges?
@@finlaymccartney889 Heck no! But they should at least redesign them - except for Sammy, none of the 2019 versions look aesthetically pleasing. The 2013 ones were close to Disney/Universal quality - the new ones are junk. Our location in Niagara only got the new versions of Wiley, Violet and Sammy because Sammy wasn't at our location at the time + the original Violet costume had deteriorated to the point it was no longer usable.
I used to enjoy going to Great Wolf Lodge about a decade ago, but I stopped going after hearing about Wiley & his friends receiving a mascot redesign. I’m sorry but their bigger heads, slim bodies, and wide open mouths are very off putting to me, I’d love it if they went back to their previous design.
The older designs were better than the ones in this video, but the ones that they introduced in 2022 are better than any of the designs because they are super cute! I highly recommend that you go to Great Wolf Lodge, the best place on Earth, again.🤗
This seems that there a lot of things to do with family members with kids, what if its just me and the wife? I don't think this is ideal, what about other places that is good just for adults?
Hi John! You're right, Great Wolf Lodge is a great place to take the kiddos. Now if it's just you and your wife, you might want to consider another option where you can relax and unwind. You can't go wrong with the wildly popular Gaylord Texan or perhaps you might want to splurge a bit with a visit to Grapevine's only boutique property, Hotel Vin. Either way, you're going to love your visit to Grapevine!
At the top of Fort Mackenzie are 2 slides known as Totem Towers. One is Orange and the other is Green. The outside of the green one was painted blue in 2020. Not sure why, but I think that it makes the slide look a lot better.
They are replacing it with the Legend of Luna show. I think that this is a good idea because the clock towers are getting old and worn out and because the Legend of Luna is a new show that they want every guest to see, not just the guests that come to the new locations going forward.
Still waiting for our location in Niagara Falls to reopen because of the pandemic - because our government seems to take COVID-19 more seriously, unlike Texas.. where numbers are out of control. Hopefully with the vaccine arriving, hoping to return in the spring (we're closed til March, similar to Fitchburg, as they've chosen to wait it out). And the new Great Wolf Kids character costumes (except for Sammy) are awful. They're so bad, Niagara Falls and Poconos actually kept some of the old costumes (as of last check).
I loved this soooo much it was so amazing and extremely fun we are going back soon
We miss GWL so much. When this pandemic is all over it will be one of the first trips we book 🐺
But it’s still open I’m going this Friday😁
GWL is the best place on Earth!!!🤗
im going next week for a single night but I'm super hyped and I'm going to this location, too!
I'm, going next week and I'm soooo excited it's going to be my third time
I have not been to that place in 4 years I miss it so much 😔
I highly recommend that you go again soon!!! It’s the best place on Earth!!!🤗
I’m going in May and the last few months have been so slow because I am so excited
This is awesome I would love to go there
If you do you should bring your own food and but the cheapest room so it’s less expensive (you don’t have to I a, recommending)

I’m going to great Wolf Lodge Grapevine Texas in two days I am so excited to see you
How was your stay there ? I’m going for the first time !
This is my home lodge too!!! I love this place!!!🤗
I almost got hired as a costumed mascot performer for Great Wolf Lodge.
They should definitely remake this video using the Great Wolf Pack versions of the characters that they use today. They would be super adorable!!!🥰
Hey where's Rachel and brinley????
Brinley was probably resting. I have no idea who Rachel is though!!!
Last year I went to Sandusky, Ohio and I a great time! This year I’m having my birthday there! It’s on Feb. 12th, so there’s only 39 days!!!

nice fursuits. are they for sale?

@Olivia 757 I saw the illustrated characters for the "Great Wolf Pack" movie. And they really suck!
They are gone now. Replaced with the cutest designs ever, the Great Wolf Pack!!!🥰
They have new designs now and they are cute! Great Wolf Lodge will always be a happy howling heaven to me!!!🥰
I don’t think that they suck! They look unique to me. 🤗

hope you had a amazing time!
yeah٫on the howling tornado I fell in the tube all the way and my bum got scratched 😬

I think the last quality mascots are better.
They were, but the Great Wolf Pack ones are better than any of the designs they had.🥰

Do you got build a bear workshop there??? Just a bit curious, thats all.

Well, the suits shown in the video are gone - GWL has changed them over to the Great Wolf Pack designs chain-wide (including Niagara Falls).

They don’t have the Great Wolf Kids anymore. They were replaced by the Great Wolf Pack in 2022 and they look far cuter than the old ones.🥰
@@zandernauta7918 And thank goodness they changed them.
Mask required.🤐
Yes, it’s mandatory! Unless you want the virus haha or to get kicked out 😬
