Very expensive but the place is impressive. Huge indoor water park. Hotel is clean, room was clean, and all of the staff there are very nice people. The water park was included in the room & board but the ropes course cost extra. The only downside was the beds were not comfortable (the mattresses were very firm) and the HVAC was quite loud. The furnace was in a closet right by the window, and each time that thing kicked on during the night it woke us all up. So, we all got segmented sleep during each night we were there. All in all, the place is worth going to. Our room cost $352.50 per night, but that may have been because it was on President's day that we were all there. I'd go again if they offer a better deal per night. Downtown Frankenmuth is a short walk across a covered bridge from there, so it's in a great location. We only had food at the hotel one night, at the sandwich restaurant at the water park. Food was good and reasonably priced, but we didn't get drinks because it cost $5 per cup with no refills. I got the kielbasa, my wife and one son got smash burgers, and my other son got a cheeseburger. I think there are multiple restaurants there, but we bought food at Kroger that we brought in; probably more healthy that way. That water park is what makes the place fun; you can spend hours there, we sure did.

Rooms were clean, just a little dated but the waterpark was awesome. Check in took a little while but that’s understandable due to them being fully booked and everyone is trying to get to the waterpark.

The check in process had a line so long it went into the guest room hallway. Total chaos. That’s after you already submitted a pre check in. Really mad when the offered us an extended check out option, wasted my time paying for it only to be denied the option. Really set the tone.
