Great Wolf Lodge is looking to expand its seven-year-old water park resort within the Talking Stick Entertainment District to accommodate large families.
The resort owners are seeking to build a connecting six-story suite tower that would have 24 guest suites, each with three bedrooms, Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community planner Noah Katt said during a July 27 Land Management Board Community Hearing.
“We’re always looking for opportunities to bring the Great Wolf Lodge experience to more families. We’re in a very early exploratory phase for a potential expansion of our Arizona resort. Part of our exploratory process includes working with local officials to secure needed entitlements, which is why we’re participating in the board meeting,” a resort spokesperson said in a statement sent to the Business Journal.
The addition would be the same height as the existing building — 78 feet tall — and connect through a ground floor walkway. It would also have the same architectural design. A two-story parking structure (separate from this application) will also be proposed to account for the additional families.
