Family travelers will be happy to know Great Wolf Lodge Mashantucket celebrated its final beam needed to complete vertical construction being put into place recently. Now, Turner Construction turns its attention to the family-friendly indoor water park resort’s 549 guest suites; various eateries and retail outlets; 91,000-square-indoor water park; and 61,000-square-foot Great Wolf Adventure Park.
With this milestone in place, Great Wolf Lodge was able to forecast a timetable for opening and is now accepting reservations for stays beginning June 15, 2025. The date may move up as more construction milestones are met this fall and winter.
Great Wolf Lodge Mashantucket is part of an agreement with Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, located on 13 acres adjacent to Foxwoods Resort Casino.
“This is an exciting day for the Pequot Nation as we celebrate this significant milestone in the construction of Great Wolf Lodge Mashantucket. This new location completes a decades long resort vision and represents our tribe’s dedication to growth and community, along with economic development for our entire region,” said Chairman Rodney Butler of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. “We are honored to be celebrating this moment with our Great Wolf family, and are excited for the property’s opening next year.”
