Fall lovers, rejoice! Your season is here. It’s time to whip out the oversized cozy sweaters, add cinnamon to every dish we make, cover our porches with amber and sunset-hued decor, step on crunchy leaves, and of course, drink one of the most divisive drinks out there: pumpkin spice lattes. Sure, naysayers will argue that they don’t get the appeal, but those that get it get it. If you’re a fall fanatic beyond belief, you’ll be pleased to know there’s a hotel out there that understands your obsession with the best season of the year. So much so, that they even offer a hotel suite called The Pumpkin Spice Suite. Yes, that’s right; tell that to the PSL haters. There’s a whole SUITE dedicated to the best seasonal drink in the universe.
If you’re interested in staying at the Pumpkin Spice Suite, you’ll need to start planning your trip to Great Wolf Lodge. Great Wolf Lodge has several locations, but only a few offer this spooktacular promotional room. And, of course, it’s only available for a limited time during the fall.
What’s included in the Pumpkin Spice Suite

Content creator under the handle @steffy, author of “A Home For Every Season,” and interior decorator Steffy Degreff is the mastermind behind the Pumpkin Spice Suite. She is a colorful character who brings the (pumpkin) spice to the suites. Each room is decorated with autumn-inspired colors like orange, brown, and amber everywhere you turn.
It doesn’t stop with being saturated in fall’s most notable colors, as you’ll also be greeted with pumpkin-shaped pillows, autumn-inspired wall art, fall florals, and fall-tastic wreaths. There are even fall-scented fragrances of nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, and potpourri to ensure all of the senses are getting autumn overload (if there even is such a thing).
Best of all, you can sip pumpkin spice lattes in your amplified fall room. We’re not sure about you, but we think sipping a warm pumpkin spice latte while completely surrounded by pumpkin-shaped pillows and colorful fall decor simply makes the drink sweeter.
Which locations offer the Pumpkin Spice Suite (and when to book)

Great Wolf Lodge has several locations throughout the U.S. and Canada. However, only a few of them offer the Pumpkin Spice Suite. Your first option is to book at their Pocono Mountains location in Pennsylvania. The Pocono Mountains are a picturesque destination for fall foliage and make for one of the best weekend getaways on the East Coast. Great Wolf Lodge in Gurnee, Illinois is another great option for the Pumpkin Spice Suite. While Gurnee is home to a Six Flags location, the area is also a common peaceful getaway for Chicagoans.
If going down south is more your thing, head to Great Wolf Lodge’s location in Grapevine, Texas for the Pumpkin Spice Suite. Grapevine is conveniently located only an eight-minute drive from Dallas-Fort Worth Airport (DFW). LaGrange, Georgia is another southern location with the Pumpkin Spice Suite, and being situated a couple of hours drive from the Alabama border, you can bet you’ll be eating some good southern cuisine if you choose this location.
Finally, if you hear the West calling, Garden Grove, California’s Great Wolf Lodge also offers the Pumpkin Spice Suite. Located in Orange County, Garden Grove is conveniently located near Anaheim (where Disneyland is), Huntington Beach, and not too far from Los Angeles. Whether North, East, West, or South, make sure to plan from September 28 to October 31, as that’s when the suite is available for booking.
