KeyLime Cove is a resort and indoor waterpark located in Gurnee, Illinois near Six Flags Great America. KeyLime Cove has been listed as the "Official Resort of Six Flags Great America". The resort is located about an hour away from Chicago and less than an hour from Milwaukee. The park occupies 30 acres of land and takes on a tropical Florida theme designed carefully by David W. Anderson. The park includes state of the art technology with the use of electronic wristbands that doubles as park admission and a room key. The wristbands not only have access to rooms and the waterpark but also hold the capability of purchasing items on KeyLime Cove grounds, they can be pre-loaded or paid for upon checkout. The resort will be close on spring break in Gurnee and will be under renovations for the next year to transform the tropical themed resort to a northwoods themed look. Great Wolf Resorts, a Madison-based company with over 14 resorts opened and 4 under construction/renovation, acquired the property on February 6 at the Gurnee Village board meeting the night before. The indoor water park will also be expanded by about 20,000 square feet. In addition, further facilities are set to include an outdoor water park, more shopping and other amenities. The company’s Head of Development, Bryson Heezen, reportedly told Gurnee village board that fresh family rooms with themes such as a “wolf den,” new restaurants, mini-bowling and ropes courses were also on the cards.
