The holiday season is a great time of year for a “staycation” to reconnect as a family or even treat the little ones in your life to a special outing. There are plenty of opportunities to do this around Cincinnati and one of the best places can be found in Mason, right next to Kings Island, just off of 71. Great Wolf Lodge is known for its massive lodge atmosphere and epic indoor water park, but during the holidays, it transforms into a winter wonderland and it is absolutely pure magic.
Great Wolf Lodge is a unique resort with several locations across the country and we are lucky enough to have one right here in Cincinnati.
