Wonderful place to stay! Amazing waterpark, lots for the kids to do, comfy rooms, felt incredibly safe. We had the wolf den room so the kids had their own little space in the room and it didn’t feel crowed. Just take a break every now and then to get fresh air because the chlorine can be a little overwhelming.

Couch Didn’t Work

The couch looked like a mini one for small people so we had to share a bed, 2 people in a queen bed. Not very comfortable.

Not like the one in Wis Dell

Good for younger kids. No hot tub, no gym, small lazy river, and wave pool is a joke. I literally stood there and not move. What wave? Keep in mind, parking is $36.50 per night. Pay at the ziosk and scree shoot the bar code so you have it on hand. You will need it to go in and out of the parking lot. Otherwise, you will need to pay each time you exit.

Hotel is average nothing to write home about. This hotel doesn't have a normal pool or hot tub for parents to get away. Hide abed squeaked all night when my granddaughter was sleeping in it. Also 2 nights of our 4 nights we had no hot water and no explanation as to why. Cost of parking is crazy, but it's California so .. Also easy check in was a joke didn't get a text or email to tell us our room # until an hour later. I had to wait in the long line at the registration desk to find out. Then they charge you $100 a night for deposit which I was unaware of. Oh well lesson learned won't be back
