Top Elk Rapids Hotel Reviews

Great Wolf Lodge Traverse City

8/10 Good

"Two 9 year old boys loved the water park. And lots of other activities, many of which like yoga or crafts are free. The popular ones like bowling, mini golf and the arcade are costly however. Paying $20 a day (plus 6% sales tax!) to park on top of already steep room rates is ridiculous given the location and huge parking lots! Makes no sense except as a money grab."

"Good place to stay. We were pleased."

"First, i thought the property was difficult to find..it is not well marked and it is surrounded by other bldgs. The staff are beyond helpful & the checkin was flawless. The rooms are ample in size, and have good amenitites but the bathroom is dated. My only big complaint are the beds. Hard as rocks. I had a bad sleep. Breakfast was wonderful..they had everything. I would not likely return because of the beds.. if the beds were replaced i would absolutely return!"
