Very worn. The people below me were smoking outside, so I could not enjoy my balcony. When I spoke to the front desk, the person was not helpful. I will not be staying here again.

Great Wolf Lodge was great. The staff were great. The only negative is that there seems to be really poor Lyft and Uber service around Traverse City.

Wonderful adventures with all that the Great Wolf Lodge has to offer. One night wasn’t enough to take in all of the activities. We’ll be back again this winter!
