  • Great Wolf Lodge Bloomington is a giant, family-friendly resort just down the street from the Mall of America. This wilderness themed property features fun amenities, but none more notable than the 75,000 square foot indoor water park. This water park features multiple levels of slides and a lazy river integrated into several different attractions.

    Great Review. Yup, you can say that this Great Wolf Lodge isn't as elaborate as the others in the chain due to it's second hand history, but you can't beat the relative value it offers. My family took quite a few weekday vacations there from Winnipeg where the hotel room paid for itself with the value of park passes for 6 people!

    I've never done any of these indoor waterparks (with one modest exception), and I don't really plan on doing any in the future, but it's interesting to see the reports on them. During cold months, a reasonably priced hotel with an indoor pool and hot tub is good enough for me. I do love outdoor waterparks. The one at Valleyfair was nice. I didn't spend much time in there, but I still got on a lot of their body & regular tube slides, as lines were very reasonable, far shorter than the coasters' lines in the afternoon.

    We just stayed there. They slides were really fast. Great lazy river. The Flow rider was cool. The bowling alley was really fun. My grandkids did the rock climbing and the ropes course. The spinning log on the ropes course made it challenging. The breakfast was top notch. Overall very expensive but very fun.

    It IS very unique and has a niche' market. I'm sure, they will step UP their game to compete. Indoor parks are an interesting "breed" of parks. So many have bitten the dust. The industry has really changed. Look at the "turnstiles" No rotating arms. I saw this system @ IAAPA Expo years ago. I remember when we had to "manually" flip it when we "style jumpers" or, we'd make the rider go back the proper way. We did a LOT for that $3.35 per hour. LOL! If you explained "Y" it was important to be counted, it sort of made sense to the delinquent. Great overview of GWM.

    When you talk pricing, keep in mind it changes substantially depending how many guests come with you. We are going soon and compared 2 quantities of guests. Adding 2 extra guests cost an extra 100.00 for the room for one night. One good thing about the cost of Great Wolf Lodge is you get access to it all day long BOTH days even if you only stay for one night.

    The reason I say that is because the way you smile uncontrollably, and even giggle around her, is clearly so natural that she obviously makes you very happy.
    I wish you a very long, fruitful, healthy and happy life together :)

    The reason they’re painted two different colors is because they were painted all blue but then the paint kinda faded to green😂 but gwl really did a lot of work to this park like renovating the top otter run slide adding lights and sound to river canyon run and even changing the tube slides exit from a runout to a full pool

    Been to the indoor park at Edmonton (Alberta, Canada) Mall, but was warned to not go in the water by a lifelong resident there due to constant closures of...bacteria-laden water due to the humidity in the place. Have you heard about this with other parks? My experience was 2009, so maybe things have...cleaned up a bit since then.

    If for some odd reason you find yourself in traverse city michigain. There’s a great wolf lodge they only have 3 adult slides. 5 total and none are any good from what I remember.

    I personally prefer the Great Wolf Lodge in Wisconsin Dells over this one but it should be noted I've only been to that one and this one.
    By the way I've never seen them close the waterslides for a safety break at all so that could be something new however the time you mentioned them occurring in this video is usually around the time I've had lunch there so maybe they have and I've never noticed.🤔
