CleanlinessHow clean are the rooms and waterpark? Our resort hotels consistently rank in the top 5% of resort hotels in cleanliness – as measured by you, our guests! Our housekeeping staff works tirelessly to ensure each room is cleaned to the highest standards and to keep our common areas spotless. Our waterpark utilizes state-of-the art water purification equipment to ensure our water is as clean as possible for our guests. To minimize the noxious effects of chemicals like chlorine, Great Wolf has developed industry-leading technology to balance effectiveness and guest comfort. We use ultra-violet purification technology to ensure that viruses and bacteria that could escape chlorination are effectively eliminated. Lastly, our cleanliness standards require that we enforce our rules regarding swim diapers: all diaper dependant guests must wear waterproof swim diapers while in our waterpark area. Our retail stores have swim diapers available for a nominal fee.
