Experience all the fall feels as soon as you enter Great Wolf Lodges’ Grand Lobby. Décor includes fall leaves, pumpkins and more, including all-new floating pumpkin patches. When visiting locations in the Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania; Manteca, California; Scottsdale, Arizona; and Colorado Springs, Colorado, swim through a sea of floating pumpkins to find the perfect one before enjoying cider and donuts while decorating your find.

 

On the Trick-or-Treat Trail, kiddos can wear their costumes and visit themed stops throughout the resort for meet and greets with Great Wolf Lodge characters, and swag and candy along the way.
