Great Wolf Lodge Five Midwest locations From December 1 to 25, kids can meet Santa and dine in a life-size gingerbread house, but the water park resort’s best holiday trick?  Animatronic critters in the lobby sing “Let It Snow” as foamy “snow” falls from the ceiling onto outstretched palms. Rates vary by property. See reviews of Great Wolf in Kansas CityGreat Wolf in Traverse CityGreat Wolf in Wisconsin Dells and Great Wolf in Sanduskygreatwolf.com
