Construction Begins On Fitchburg Resort
Wisconsin-based Great Wolf Resorts has begun construction at what will become Great Wolf Lodge New England in Fitchburg. The opening of the indoor water park and renovated hotel at what is now a Holiday Inn and CoCo Key water park is set for 2014, according to Great Wolf.
“As the leader in indoor water park resorts, we are thrilled to expand our brand into New England,” Great Wolf CEO Kim Schaefer said in a statement. “We are bringing a unique, year-round family entertainment resort to the market as well as introducing new experiences and amenities to the brand that are exclusive to this new property.”
Great Wolf Lodge New England, located off Route 31 on Royal Plaza Drive, will feature 406 guest suites and a water park equipped with water slides, a wave pool, and a multi-level tree house with water tipping bucket, among other attractions. The hotel will offer several suite styles to choose from such as the Majestic KidCabin that sleeps 11, and the Grizzly Wolf Den that sleeps 10.
The Fitchburg City Council issued a special permit in June to Great Wolf, allowing the company to carry out the expansion and renovation. The number of hotel rooms is being increased from 245 to 406, while the water park is doubling in size to 68,000 square feet – the largest in the state, according to Great Wolf.
Great Wolf Lodge New England will also feature several dining options and more than 12,000 square feet of conference space, the company said.
