We had such a blast at great wolf lodge. It is not too far distance wise from Chicago (next to 6 flags great America) and a great alternative to going to Wisconsin dells (which is over twice the distance). I would say, never pay full price to go as there are always promotions. We booked more than two months in advance and got a %-off discount. The facility is beautiful and there are lots of activities to do, though everything is an extra cost. The water park was so fun we could have spent the entire day there. The wristbands they gave you triple as your room key and payment methods (to the CC on room) so you don t need to carry anything on you! The rooms were decent sized and clean. Only thing I ll dock off for is $$$$.
