For a Howling Good Time: Great Wolf Lodge Opens in Perryville
If you’re looking for another reason to explore Delmarva this summer, the newest Great Wolf Lodge is opening in Perryville, Maryland!
Opening in mid-July, the $250+ million ADA-compliant project sits on 48 acres, just off I-95 near the Susquehanna River and the Delaware state line. With 700 rooms and themed suites, plus activities for all ages, Great Wolf Lodge is great for a quick staycation, getaway, or a stop along the way while exploring Delmarva and the Eastern Shore.
Great Wolf Lodge features a six-story, 128,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor waterpark resort (the largest the company has) with 22 slides, waves, a lazy river, pools, and a cozy 84-degree year-round temperature. The adjacent Family Fun Center houses more activities for families, such as duck pin bowling, mirror maze, rock wall, mini-golf, arcade, and a high ropes course.
And don’t forget about the dining options, which include quick-serve outlets, bars and full-service restaurants. “There’s something for everyone,” says General Manager Nadine Miracle, “whether you’re looking for burgers at Buckets or an upscale dinner at our sit-down restaurant Barnwood.”
