Why we’re going back to the Great Wolf Lodge again this year

November 6, 2009 by Barbara.

Reid and I were talking last night about how in only 6 days, we’ll be at the Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls. She said:

The water slides are fun. The storytelling tree is fun. You can be noisy and the staff won’t mind. It’s the kind of place you’re supposed to be noisy. And the decorations are cool.

Reid returned to the subject of being noisy at the Great Wolf Lodge and I agreed, with only a small caution about not being *too* noisy but she is correct. It’s a family-oriented hotel without doubt. For an adult, the decorations might sometimes slide from “cool” into “kitch” but for a kid, the animal silhouettes on light shades, the animated forest creatures on the wall over the fireplace and all the rest are a non-stop delight. Once we add in people from Wheatley and Leamington, it’s obvious that the Great Wolf Lodge is a great place to be.

For the record, Reid also knows that it is a convenient place to stay. She told her teacher that it’s half way between where her aunt lives and where we do and so it’s a good place for us to go. This is proof, to me, that she is always listening since I’m pretty sure that I’ve said something similar myself.

Now if only the Great Wolf Lodge would hire Reid to be write advertisements for why people should go there… We’d take payment in free nights lodging.
