I stayed for one night while traveling through the area. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was very nice, and there are several restaurants within walking distance. When I came back after dinner, there were a handful of people sitting around a fire pit outside the building. It was a lot of fun.

Rarely do I use a pool, because it is always too cold. Not at Wildwood, the heated pool is kept warm and comfortable! :)
