MASON  - Great Wolf Lodge next to Paramount's Kings Island is on track to open this fall featuring a 405,000-square-foot lodge, 401 guest rooms, an indoor water park, a 100-game arcade, two family restaurants and 40,000 square feet of convention space.

The above appeared on the Cincinnati Enquirer`s website on May 5, 2006. To see the whole article about the Great Wolf Lodge, as well as some construction pictures, head over to the Cincinnati Enquirer`s website here.

hey looks really cool, does anybody think that this new attraction will slow down the traffic to Crocodile Dundee's water park in the 07 season.

I seriously doubt it will, as in all likely hood you will have to have reservations at the resort to have access to the indoor water park. However, the resort can bring in more families that will spend time at Paramount`s Kings Island, and in turn Boomerang Bay. So it will hopefully cause the attendance at both PKI and BB to increase.

Yes, in order to use that water park, you do need to be staying at the resort, but gamesguy, yeah I think it will help a small bit with business at BB, prob not noticeable though.

It doesn't have a Flowrider, boy did they screw up and sell the farm.

I cant wait to see what it looks like when i go up for the fall trip. I am sure it will look great.

The resort is looking grand! A great addition to PKI. If you ride Top Gun you will have a grand view of the area. The tubes for the water park are huge and the resort it self looks great. the outer finish is done on one of the buildings and looks quite nice. The finished product will be a marvel to see.

When I rode Top Gun today I saw the site. There are tubes all over the lot and the roof is coming along. It looks like they still have alot of work to do. I was thinking about it, all the carpet, beds and TV's they have to bring in still.
