Wildwood was my saving grace. They came through for me when my original venue cancelled. They even had changing rooms for both bridesmaids and groomsmen. My special day turned out to be better than i could have imagined.Thank you Wildwood.

Had my wedding here last week! We had a rough start to the day as there was a miscommunication and they thought we were renting the property starting at 1pm, but we actually needed it starting at 11am. I of course was a stressed bride as this messed with my timeline. Wildwood was extremely apologetic & the events manager even came when it was her day off. They gave us 2 extra hours and it all worked out. They were extremely friendly and accommodating! Thank you so much, Wildwood! We had such a wonderful wedding day and Im so happy I celebrated my special day with you!

Short walk around the cultural center. They are doing something for Halloween so it was a pretty interesting walk!

Its nice. Nothing to write home about. Small park. Sad old mansion, reminder of better days for some i guess, reminder that possessions are meaningless and can be torn down easier than they are built. I imagine at some point like many others this empty mansion will too be demolished because it will prove to be too expensive to maintain, its already starting to show some neglect maybe Im wrong and it will forever be treasured, restored to its prior splendor. But what do I know? Im just a guy that wanted to eat his takeout in a park and found this place.

A long time ago, I was a young man who had a lot of trouble getting his life together. I had gotten caught up with the law and had a very hard time keeping my nose clean. I was sentenced to community service and was told that I would be working here. The first thing about this place is the old house built during the 1910s. Its a beautiful manner kept in a surprisingly good shape. The second thing are the people that work there. The manager overseeing me working my sentence was Mr. Nick Standering. A very kind man with a good head on his shoulders. These people didnt judge me or judge the actions I made to be serving community service there. They understood that I was having a very hard time and were very understanding. I owe all of them my upmost respect and gratitude. The 3rd thing is the surroundings and wildlife. Beautiful forest surrounds the back of an open yard with a very peaceful and delightful walkway through the woods. This was a great place for me to enjoy being outside and let me collect myself and my thoughts. I cannot recommend this place enough if you are looking for a nice walk through the woods or just to get outside. They offer a lot of activities and hold weddings, a wonderful place to work and to visit.Thank you to the management for everything and all the advice and comfort you gave me.

My family and I have attended 2events, the Halloween, and Santa Workshop. We really enjoyed both events. I gave it 5 stars, but one complaint I have was at the Santas workshop. I loved the organization and all the activities at the event... However, they totally left the parents/adults out. They didnt provide any snacks or extra Cookies for the parents, they didnt even have water. I asked my assigned helper Elf for a bottle of water, and he can back empty handed, and said they didnt have any ️. Other than that my Son and Nephew had a blast at both events.

Love this beautiful park. They have public garden space u can rent for the summer so u can have ur own little plot of land to grow flowers and veggies. Awesome trails, easy to traverse. Landscaping around the mansion area is beautiful. They also have a fire pit.

I went here for my first time in late June for a wedding. The gorgeous Wildwood Cultural Center was rented out for the wedding.As far a parks go, this one seemed to be very well maintained. Litter was minimal. Fallen trees and branches on paths were minimal. The porta potty was probably the cleanest and most well stocked one I have even seen. The parking lot has plenty of spaces. Maps were plenty and easy to read.This park permits hiking, bicycles, dogs (on leashes) and cross country skiing. One feature that surprised me was that there is a nice open clearing with a firepit and movable picnic tables. The trails vary in material (sand, silt, mud, gravel and wooden bridges and boardwalks) and width. Some of the wider trails connect to the surrounding roads so you can easily enter the park on a bicycle without having to go through the main entrance/parking lot.The park paths are named after what you might see while on them. These are Frog, Bluebell, Buckeye Trails and Woodpecker Loop. I did see several frogs as well as a toad. I saw evidence of woodpecker. Several squirrels were spotted and deer tracks were everywhere. Bluebell Trail did have several wildflowers and mushrooms of varying sizes and shapes could be found all over the park (cant say if they are edible or not).Overall this was a great park and bigger than I first expected. I managed to walk most of the park in about an hour at 4500 steps. Some paths were muddy or just plain slick so I definitely recommend a good pair of boots. If I am ever in the area in the future I would visit here again.
