Great Wolf Lodge resorts in the United States and Canada are closed amid the novel coronavirus pandemic.

“We have had no reported positive COVID-19 cases within our guest or pack community,” a statement from Great Wolf Lodge read.

“However, with the recent focus from federal and state government officials on restricting large gatherings, we believe it is in the best interest of our guests and pack members to temporarily close all of our resorts and plan to re-open on April 2.”

In Canada, the only Great Wolf Lodge resort is in Niagara Falls, Ont.
