MASON, Ohio -- A $100 million family resort and entertainment complex will be built on a 39-acre campground at Paramount's Kings Island, the Cincinnati-area amusement park.

The complex, expected to open in late 2006, will be called Great Wolf Lodge and will be run by Great Wolf Resorts of Madison, Wis., according to the Dayton Daily News.

The year-round resort will include 404 suites, an indoor water park, a conference center, family restaurants, arcade, gift shop, spa, fitness center and outdoor recreation area. Shuttles and trams will transport vacationers from the lodge to the park.

Great Wolf already has lodges in Sandusky, as well as in Michigan, Kansas, and Virginia.

Paramount's Kings Island drew approximately 3.5 million guests in 2004, ranking it as the 15th most popular amusement park in North America, according to the industry trade publication Amusement Business.
