Mid-Atlantic groups seeking year-round water adventures will want to head to either Williamsburg, Virginia, or Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains.
With Great Wolf Lodge, team building can be easily integrated into a day of meetings through immediate access to varied on-site water parks. Both properties also offer around 400 suites, as well as a challenging ropes course that will see groups working together to cross bridges and climb through obstacles, mini golf and spa service at Elements Spa Salon. Great Wolf’s “Wine Down Service” turn-down service is a delicious food and wine pairing that can be enjoyed by attendees from their suites. All in a day. Here are a few more ideas to consider.
Williamsburg
Howlin’ Tornado Take a super-fast thrill ride in a raft built for four. The swiftly tilting twists and turns of this water park favorite will have you howling even before you drop into the six-story funnel of fun. See how high you can ride up the walls before you shoot into the last tunnel for an unforgettable splashdown.Groups can also expect some quality F&B—and Great Wolf has the perfect turn-down gift to this regard.
Pocono Mountains
The Hydro Plunge at this property is part roller coaster, part water slide, a journey that ends with a 52-ft vertical drop after zipping through enclosed tubes and twisting curves. The Double-Barrel Drop includes, you guessed it, barrel drops, as well as 450-degree spins, mood-setting LED lights, and exhilarating twists and turns. The four-story Coyote Cannon water slide ends with a 40-ft drop into a water-jet-fueled vortex.
