The concessions offered in the water park were not good. The cost was fair, but the taste of the food was not good. The hot dog buns were stale. We did eat at the restaurant in the hotel and that was good.

So you're getting married and don't know where you want the reception? Think about the Grand Harbor Resort. Everything is presented in a classy style, and guests can stay in a 5 star hotel at the end of it all. The next day you can enjoy the waterpark whether you are young or not so young.

When I was looking for a waterpark hotel to visit with my family, on Easter weekend, it was the price that swayed me to pick Grand Harbor over other places, like in The Dells. My children are only 4 and 8 years old, so they didn’t need too overwhelming of a waterpark. After booking, however, the reviews on Tripadvisor worried... More

When this facility was first established the rooms were clean and tidy and the entire visit was always enjoyable. My last visit was less than stellar as the room that I had showed a great amount of wear and cleanliness must have been left outside the room. I do hope that this was indeed a fluke experience as the Grand... More

We have been there several times and it is a great place if you have kids. The room is very nice, clean and spacious. It has a microwave and a fridge in case you have leftovers for the next day. The only thing I saw was a little annoying is the fact that it has only 2 elevators for all... More

I took our 10 and 13 year olds to Grand Harbor and they didn't really enjoy themselves. Most of the activities are geared towards 2-7 year olds. In addition, there is no pool to just swim.

We've been there twice -- so far! And we will be back. Comfortable room, friendly staff, and the grandkids love the waterpark.
