The indoor concept is appealing for many reasons: the water is heated to a comfortable 84 degrees, you won’t have to cancel your plans if it rains, you won’t get a sunburn or have to worry about applying sunscreen on small children — the list could go on and on.

Great Wolf Lodge will feature 500 rooms, a 100,000-square-foot indoor water park and 62,000 square feet of attractions, according to a release.

Several dining options ranging from pizza and burgers to upscale dining and premium ice cream treats will be available.

The family-friendly suites come in a variety of categories and styles including Great Wolf-themed suites with separate sleeping quarters for kids designed as either a log cabin or wolf den and outfitted with bunk beds and Great Wolf character theming. The resort will also feature suites with multiple bedrooms for large families or multi-generational groups.
