Some attractions are worth the trip, and the new Great Wolf Lodge in Naples is no exception. Opening at 3900 City Gate Blvd N, this highly anticipated destination marks the brand’s first venture into Florida—a market its ownership team has eagerly targeted for years. It’s slated to open September 18, and more info can be found on its website.

Great Wolf Lodge South Florida promises family-friendly fun, with attractions and amenities for all ages. As the brand’s 21st resort in North America, it boasts 500 suites and a sprawling 100,000-square-foot indoor water park, all situated on 20 acres in Collier County next to the Paradise Coast Sports Complex.

With a drive time of around 2.5 hours from many parts of Florida, including Orlando, it’s as accessible as the Disney and Universal parks. Scheduled to open in early summer 2024, the resort is expected to create hundreds of jobs and generate a multi-billion dollar economic impact for the region. Naples can also look forward to millions in tax revenue.
