What do you get when the talented folks at Great Wolf Lodge get their hands on 600 pounds of gingerbread dough? A cottage fit to dine in.
Great Wolf Lodge has teamed up with candy maker Just Born to create a gingerbread house to put all others to shame!! Over 5,000 candies decorate the life-sized house and 1,320 pounds of sugar was used – wow, talk about a sugar rush.
No, you can’t take a bite of it (delicious as it may look and smell) but you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner inside the cottage. There is a $10 entry fee to dine inside the gingerbread house, and the proceeds from your meal go to Big Brothers and Big Sisters.
Of course, Great Wolf Lodge hasn’t stopped there. For those of you dreaming of a white Christmas, look no further than the Great Wolf Lobby where the forecast brings daily snowfall (where else can you play in the “snow” and ride a water slide in the same place?).
Kids can get crafty at the North Pole University and earn a 
“Snowpoloma” and a special surprise gift. Send that last-minute Christmas letter to Santa or sit down with the big man himself when you visit with Mr. & Mrs. Claus.
Once again, Great Wolf Lodge packs so much to do in one weekend, you’ll have to remind yourself to visit the waterpark! If you don’t have much planned for your holiday break, try to squeeze a getaway to Williamsburg in, don’t forget, you can use your Richmondmom.com Savvy Saver Card for 20% off the best available rate.
