Today the Concord North Carolina Planning and Zoning Commission approved the site plan for Wolf Lodge, a $100 million indoor/outdoor water park and 409-room Resort Hotel, proposed for a spot near Speedway Boulevard. Unfortunately, only guests of the resort, averaging a whopping $300 nightly room rate, will be allowed to use the water park. To read the article in the Independent Tribune, CLICK HERE.
Cheryl,
WOW! What? Only the resort guest get to use the waterpark? Do you think they will be able to support the park with only their guest? My best guess is they will find out they need to open it up to the public to survive. The interest on $100 million is not chicken feed. Will be interesting to see how it plays out, keep us posted.
I love to read my fellow Tarheels' posts.
Cynthia: Thanks for your input, it was great hearing from a fellow Tarheel. :-) I was wondering the same thing about the Resort being able to support the water park with only their guests.
I heard about the water park over a year ago and my teen daughters were VERY excited about it. At this time the closest waterpark to Concord in Carowinds, which is south of Charlotte on the NC/SC border. What a disappointment to the local population! I'll definitely post any updates to their plans.
