Beloved family resort hosts ribbon cutting to mark recent opening of new entertainment and attraction offerings, dining concepts, updated guest suites, and more.

Great Wolf Lodge Grand Mound celebrated the completion of a multi-million-dollar renovation today that included updates to the guest suites, water park, attractions, restaurants, conference center and more. Guests of the resort joined resort General Manager, John Taffin, and members of The Chehalis Tribe, joint owners of the Grand Mound property, for a ribbon cutting ceremony in the newly designed Grand Lobby to mark the project's completion.
