Great Wolf Lodge in Bloomington, Minnesota, is an essential family getaway located minutes from the Twin Cities. The facility offers an unforgettable world of play all under one roof, centered around a well-known indoor water park. The water park is warm, clean, and features pools, waterslides, a kiddie play area, a lazy river, and a wave pool. The rest of the lodge is filled with adventurous attractions and numerous family-friendly activities, such as MagiQuest and an arcade, though some activities involve additional costs. Dining options are available for every appetite, with food and drinks described as very good, though some guests find on-site costs can add up quickly. Many guests report an amazing and wonderful experience, noting the staff as very friendly and helpful. The rooms and facility are often found to be super clean. Popular features include the bunk beds for kids and the overall convenience of having everything in one place. Some common suggestions for improvement include desiring more tubes for the water attractions, having more included arcade credits, and addressing occasional issues like slides being closed or delays in room readiness. Despite being spendy, most guests find it worth it and plan to return, highly recommending a visit during the week for a potentially less crowded experience.
I would love to give a big shoutout to whoever was working the convienence store-type area this AM shift. He was amazing, he went all the way from asking me how I was to paying for the rest of my food when my card declined unexpectedly. He is a very nice human and I just wanted to make that known!
