Great Wolf Resorts profile,

Great Wolf Resorts is a chain of family oriented resort hotels under the Great Wolf Lodge and Blue Harbor Resort brands. Each features themed indoor and outdoor waterpark along with spas for adults and children, suites which include bunk beds, large arcades, and supervised children's activities.

The principal ownership of Great Wolf Lodge was composed of brothers Jack and Andrew Waterman who were the original owners of the Noah's Ark waterpark, which is commonly billed as America's Largest Waterpark. Great Wolf Lodge's headquarters is currently in Madison, Wisconsin.

Great Wolf's CEO Kim Schaefer was featured in the U.S. version of TV's "Undercover Boss", which included visits to several lodges where she worked alongside a lifeguard superviser, front desk clerk, restaurant waitstaff and in the children's program.

Future development

On January 13, 2010, Great Wolf Lodge, Inc. stated Zamias Services, Inc. of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, will co-develop a hotel-water park resort which will be attached to the Galleria at Pittsburgh Mills. Zamias owns the mall in Frazer Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, about 20 miles northeast of Pittsburgh along PA Route 28. The mall has struggled with vacancies since it opened in 2005, though the water park could make the mall a regional attraction.

The companies did not say when the resort will open.
