Great Wolf Lodge

Last week we went to Great Wolf Lodge for 3 days and 2 nights. Even though we were only 45 minutes from the house, it felt like we were hours away. So I'm not going to lie, pulling up felt just a little like I was pulling up at Disney World. I was all sorts of excited!! And we stayed in a Kid Cabin Suite, which was pretty cool. The kids loved it! They even had a TV in the Kid Cabin.
After a little water fun the first day, we ate on-site. It was a buffet. The food was not bad, but a little pricey.
The kids gathered around for story time after dinner. It was ok, and the kids seemed entertained. 
We posed for a picture afterwards.
We hit up the gift shop and Finn had a hard time picking out on animal. It was cute.
After story time, it was dance party time!! They played some lively music and we shook our tail feathers!
Just stop and look how big they all are. They have my heart.
This was in the middle of the indoor section. They had quite a bit going on inside from these slides, to a toddler section, wave pool, lazy river, 5 big kid tube rides and several platforms connected to the slides below.
Toddler area, which Finn and even Mae loved. They had some little slides in this section and we took Mae down them a few times!
Our first full day there {Monday}, we rented an outdoor cabana. I would so recommend this. It was so nice to have a designated spot to call your own for the day. We didn't have to worry about our stuff being taken. Plus there was a safe inside our cabana, so we locked up any valuables each time we ventured off. And they also had a mini fridge stocked full of waters, soft drinks, powerade, which was included with your rental. We enjoyed it so much that we rented it the next day as well. And it was pretty affordable to rent one, so definitely check it out if you stay there.
Below is the outdoor area. In the back are two fun tube rides {the indoor tube rides are a little more adventurous}. Big beach entry area and then a pool that winds a little with some water basketball goals. The beach entry area went to about 2.5 feet and was perfect for Finn and Ally.
On our last night there, we ventured downstairs to the arcade area and played some games. Nanny loves her some arcade games! ;-) And for the record, I did win a Darth Vader from the machine on my 4th try or so. I wish I would have stopped playing it after winning! Ha!
We had a super fun time. What a way to kick off our summer!
