Great Wolf Lodge

March may be a bit cool for outdoor water fun, but you can splash indoors all day at Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine. But that’s not even half the adventure in this exciting staycation! Start a rock collection at Oliver’s Mining Co., defeat the shadowy darkness in MagiQuest, explore new heights on Howler’s Peak Ropes Course, and score big at the Northern Lights Arcade. You can make personalized teddy bears at a Build-a-Bear Workshop and have a friendly family competition in the gaming den at The Grounds by Topgolf. Plus, they have special Spring Break events like a dance party, arts and crafts, and character photo ops.

Local Day Trips

Maybe you like the idea of waking up in your own bed each morning of the break and then trekking out on a new adventure every day. Did you know the Frisco Public Library has a dinosaur replica? See a 20-foot T. rex dinosaur skeleton that breathes life into history. Your little ones and elementary kids will also love Tot’s Town and Kid’s Club, where they can engage in safe and educational fun!

Explore the outdoors at the Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary in McKinney and participate in special programs and exhibits. Their schedule features a family campout, a bird walk, mini camps, wetland canoe trail adventures, night hikes, and a nature connection walk. You can also attend their ongoing programs like Zip Line Days, nature storytimes, garden talks, and guided trail hikes.

Or go for bright and colorful hands-on creativity at the Crayola Experience in Plano. You can all enjoy exploring art and technology with this unique way to experience color. In fact, the theme for the week is outer space exploration, so this could be a voyage of cosmic proportions!

Gaylord Texan

For a true escape, plan a family resort staycation at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine. Enjoy the lake, indoor garden atriums, good food, relaxation at the spa, indoor swimming, and the outdoor water park with slides and a lazy river. There is something for everyone in the family to enjoy.

Living at The Parks at Wilson Creek is a staycation every day because of our planned resident-exclusive parks, trails, pools, sports courts, fishing lakes, and plenty of open space to roam anytime. Of course, you’re also close to other adventures so you’ll always have something to do. Contact us today to find your new home in a community full of fun.
