About the Business
Wildwood Manor House, located at 5100 Central Avenue in Toledo, Ohio, is a historic museum and tourist attraction set within the beautiful grounds of Wildwood Preserve Metropark. The Manor House, once the home of the prominent Stranahan family, offers a glimpse into the fascinating history of Toledo during the early 20th century.
Visitors can explore the impressive mansion and sprawling estate, which stand as a testament to the success and influence of the Stranahan brothers, founders of the Champion Spark Plug Company. The property was preserved as a public park in the 1970s, thanks to a citizens' campaign, and has since become a beloved destination for generations of visitors.
The Manor House is open for self-guided tours on Sundays, Wednesdays through Fridays from April to September. Each month features themed activities exploring nature, science, history, or art, making it a great destination for visitors of all ages. Special events, such as Eerie Manor and Zombie Prom in October, and Holidays at the Manor House in November, offer unique experiences for guests.
In addition to tours and events, Wildwood Manor House offers facilities for rentals, including tenting options for events on the back patio. Guided historical tours and photography sessions are also available by appointment. Visitors can also participate in activities such as Argentine Tango classes and yoga sessions in the beautiful nature setting of the Manor House.
For more information or reservations, visitors can call (419) 407-9790. Wildwood Manor House invites guests to immerse themselves in the rich history and natural beauty of the estate, making it a must-visit destination in Toledo, Ohio.
Reviews
"Great historic property and park grounds at any time of the year. Currently the estate is decorated for Christmas and is free to tour. They had transport to and from parking if needed and fire pits where you could do smores. Well organized and beautiful home"
"The house was decorated beautifully. The scavenger hunt was great to distract the kids from the wait to get into some of the rooms. Smores were very yummy. We took the carriage ride and im very glad we got tickets because it was awesome weather and the owner of the mules was very friendly answering all of the questions my daughter had. Definitely will come again. Oh. . We visited the models trains also. So cute to see our town and some older memories set up in mini form. ❤️"
"This is an amazing annual treat for anyone in the northwest Ohio area. Every year volunteers bring their own items to decorate the manor hours with the most creative themes! Each year is different, so it easily becomes an annual family tradition that remains fresh and fun!"
"Nice scaveger hunt for kids to follow. Kept them interested. Loved the different decorating themes!"
"Went on a (paid) 3-hour Behind The Scenes tour. Everything was extremely organized. All of the staff were friendly and very knowledgeable on all aspects from the architecture and symmetry of the house to the lineage of the family. The tour was thorough, well-paced, and lasted the whole 3 hours - you get your money's worth! This is a beautiful house and it is clear that the people who conduct these tours love the building and property very much. I am very grateful to have seen it!"
