We're in a big group, so cost is a factor, I would prefer it not to be hideously expensive, and we've got a 3 yr old coming with us, so somewhere that might be fun for her too would be good. Any suggestions welcome, so I know what I need to be asking for 180 days out :)

    I've never done Whispering Canyon myself, so can't recommend it. :)
