According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ocregister.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Orange County Register<\/a>, the resort will be Southern California\u2019s first indoor water park and the largest of Great Wolf\u2019s 14 facilities. Once operational, the venue is expected to employ about 650 people and generate an estimated $8 million annually in tax revenue for the city, more than any Garden Grove hotel.<\/p>\n<p>Upon the resort&#8217;s completion, guests will have a choice of seven restaurants, including Bear Paw Sweets &amp; Eats and Dunkin\u2019 Donuts, as well as a bowling alley, miniature golf course, a spa for girls and an interactive scavenger hunt called MagiQuest. The largest of the hotel&#8217;s suites will accommodate up to 12 guests. Rates will vary from $260 to about $600 per night, depending on the suite and time of year.<\/p>\n<p>The water park and its 565,000 gallons of water (less than it takes to fill an Olympic-size swimming pool) will be exclusively available to guests. According to Garden Grove officials, Great Wolf\u2019s new resort will operate a state-of-the-art recycling system with mechanized pumps, filters and tanks that purify the water before circulating it back into the park\u2019s common water areas.<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcwhinney.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">McWhinney<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Great Wolf Lodge Southern California is on schedule and on budget to open its doors to guests in March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":260,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1594,21742],"tags":[682],"class_list":["post-1004128604","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-los-angeles","category-latest","tag-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
