So, my family and I decided to try something different for our Christmas vacation. We had already done multiple stays at DL, and had some friends recommend the Great Wolf Lodge as a fun place to go.
Now, before I go on, I want to reiterate how much I love DL, so just because I may say something negative about DL, doesn’t mean I’m excited or wishing for its demise. I’m just saddened at the experience now.
So, we stayed at GWL and we did in fact have an incredible time. Not only did my kids ages 9,6, and 4 say it was the best trip ever, the amount of customer service you might say was above and beyond anything DL has today. I wouldn’t even be surprised if some of the workers there had once worked at DL. Just some of the tiny things they did that felt like what DL used to be 30 years ago. Now, this is not a knock on current CMs as a whole because I have met many similar CMs who go the extra mile at DL, but the whole experience just felt like everyone was putting their best foot forward at all times unlike the previous trips to DL the past 10 years. Almost as though Disney doesn’t feel like they need to try because they’re Disney and are unaware of other options that are catching up to them or have surpassed them experience wise,
And of course these are just my experiences and are not indicative of everyone’s.
