Great Wolf or Coco Keys for a 3yo?

We want to celebrate my DS 3rd birthday next month at one of the two places. I've never been to either... I know GW is more expensive, but which water park is better for a 3yo?

Great Wolf. Their prices are ridiculous lately though. Saturday nights are running like $500-$600 a night when I was just looking at the rate calender last night.

This is exactly why I'm considering Coco Keys... Their prices are so much less! I'd like to do Great Wolf butight save it for when he's older.

I think a 3 year is going to have fun at either. Coco Key just doesn't have a wavepool or the more "thrilling" waterslides, which won't even matter to a 3 year old. Enjoy!!


Great Wolf is opening a New England location (MA...they took over and are re-doing an old Coco Key) in April, so hopefully that drives the prices down a little!

We took our daughters for DD1s 3rd birthday to Coco Key and they both loved it. It was so much less expensive than Great Wolf and they both had a great time. I wasn't a fan of the restaurant in the hotel though so we ended up going out and finding someplace to eat.

Weeknights are not that expensive since they know most kids have school the next day.

If you have a Scout, use code SCOUT for $159 weeknight rates (select days)

Didn't work for any days I tried. Do you know a certain window of dates this might work for?

If you click on view rate calendar, it will show you the dates. I am running out the door, so I will check in a bit

$159 on 12/2, 12/3, 12/4, 12/5, 12/9, 12/10, 12/11, 12/16, 12/17, 12/18, 12/19

$189 on 11/18, 11/19, 11/20, 11/21

Both of these are for a family suite.

$279 for most dates in January, so either they haven't updated the Scout rate, or won't be offering it in January. You have to keep checking.

Thanks! I didn't notice the calendar option. I was looking for the new year. Hopefully that rate will come back.
