Great Wolf confirms water park purchase near Mall of America

MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin-based Great Wolf Resorts Inc. confirms that it has bought a water park and adjoining hotel near the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota.

The Madison indoor water park company said Tuesday it will convert the Water Park of America and the Radisson Hotel Bloomington into a Great Wolf resort. The cost of the project was not disclosed.

Great Wolf Lodge Minnesota is expected to open next winter. It will be the company’s 15th indoor water park resort in North America.
