MagiQuest at Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky (Sandusky, OH)

Location: Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky (Sandusky Ohio)

There are two Great Wolf Lodges in Ohio. The one described in this post is in Sandusky, close to Cleveland. The other one, in Mason, is nearer to Cincinnati. Be careful when you are planning your trip that you are choosing accommodations near the correct Lodge, as they are a significant distance apart. Great Wolf does make this distinction slightly clearer by referring to these two lodges primarily by the actual towns they are located in, rather than by region as with some other locations.


Physical Address: 4600 Milan Rd, Sandusky, OH 44870

Realm Type: Forest Realm

Chronicle: Runes of the Quest Master

Primary Landmarks: Enchanted Woods, Whispering Woods, Piney Path, Tangled Woods, Dragon's Lair/Goblin Lair, Pixie's Perch, Forgotten Hallway, Shopkeeper's Hallway

Magi Runes Available: Lighting, Enchant Creature, Healing, Dazzle, Freezing, Portal, Protection, Ice Arrow, Master Magi

Adventures Available: Goblin King, Pixie, Red Dragon, Silver Dragon

Other notes:  One thing that's interesting about this location is that the Great Wolf Lodge building is right in the middle of the suburban sprawl, not set back from the road with a long driveway like the other ones we've been to. You didn't really notice that once you got inside, though.

This realm has the original version of MagiQuest and has not been changed to 2.0, but does appear to have had some extra maintenance and updating. The main indication of this is that a number of quests have more guidance about things like the order of casting to trigger an encounter, what is required for your quest, and the steps and timing for combat.

They do not have CompassQuest or ShadowQuest.

This realm has quest stones, not quest trees, even though it is a forest realm.

The layout of this realm is similar to the Lodge in the Poconos, but with the difference that the forest "paths" are along the balconies only and the gameplay spaces do not extend into the halls toward the rooms. This makes the forest areas smaller, but this realm makes more use of the downstairs space by having gameplay elements near the store and in a nearby corridor known as the Shopkeeper's Hallway. Overall the gameplay space is probably about the same, just with a slightly different layout.

  1. Hi! We are going to the Sandusky location soon and are suuuuuuper pumped! I found an apk for android of the book of Wisdom but when I opened it, I noticed it doesnt have the Sandusky location. Do you know if it mirrors a another GWL location so that we can follow it instead or is every location completely unique? Thanks!!
