“Rafting fun!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 September 2011

We didn't stay at the resort..we actually hooked up w/ them at the Golf course location near Niagara their outpost. We used Wildman Ranch for our trip down Piers Gorge/Menominee River. Not knowing what to expect at all we were assigned Cheryl and she did a great job of prepping us w/ knowledge on paddling as well as how to pull someone back into the raft from the river etc...she did a great job for us and made it a fun and memorable experience. Can't beat the fun! Thanks Wildman!

“A fun place with lots of outdoor acticities”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2011

My wife and I spent a week at Wildmans. It was an enormous amount of fun. My wife, who isn't an outdoor person wants to go back next year. The have a very good variety of different outdoor activities which you can sign up for, They are individually priced. While not "high adventure" they were a lot of fun, and the activities are appropriate for entire families. The staff was very helpful, and the guides were very friendly. The setting in Northern Wisconsin was beautiful. They quarters were rustic, but very clean and very nice. No onsite restuarants, but plenty of small "Pub and Grubs" close by with lots of local color and good reasonably priced food. We loved it and higjhly recommend it.

Room Tip: Cabins many of which have more than 1 bedroom.

“Had a GREAT time at the Wildman!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2011

people found this review helpful

Clean, clean, clean, cute, and cozy is the best way to describe the cabin we got! We scheduled a weekend getaway to go rafting and ATV over 4th of July weekend. Scott, Anthony, Cheryl and the rest of the staff were EXCELLENT in ensuring we had a good time and stay at Wildman. We got in on Thursday night to a CLEAN cabin. Honestly, this is the first time I've ever stayed at a cabin (I'm more of a resort type) and was impressed by how cute and clean the cabin was! Our cabin overlooked the Peshtigo river and the breeze and sound of the river was so relaxing. Friday, we went for a 3 hr ATV ride (another thing that I've never done in my life, but thoroughly enjoyed!) in the AM and rafted on the Peshtigo in the PM. On Saturday, we relaxed in the AM and went rafting in the PM on the Menominee (EXCELLENT!!!).

Overall, I'm definitely looking forward to coming back! We had a great time, great weather, and stayed at a great cabin. I HIGHLY recommend Wildman!!!

“Great Fun for the whole family”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2011

We just did the white water rafting/kayaking on the Pestigo River with my family (2 kids, 10 and 14) and my parents (75 and 78). Ken, who I believe is also the owner, was wonderful ahead of our adventure explaining to my mother and my 10 year old daughter what to expect and recommend the best type of vessel for their comfort. I ended up in a small raft with my mother and daughter (not the two strongest paddlers by any definition) and my son and father ended up in the open, catamaran type kayaks. We visited at a time after lots of rain so the river was up well above normal and delivered us rapids that ranged from 1s to 3s.

The whole trip was premised on my daughters desire to go white water rafting and the thrill that she was anticipating. She was not let down! The trip was terrific, the guides were great and provided great on-water support when it was needed (we got stuck on a large rock and they got us free) and my dad (78) was thrown from his boat in one of the class 3 rapids and they were on him right away to insure he didn't get beat up too bad.

I can highly recommend this for a family adventure. I do recommend that all be competant swimmers, especially if going on the single person kayaks. The rafts provide a safer trip as one is much less likely to end up in the water.

It was a ton of fun. We will absolutely return for more great adventures. Maybe next time we will hit the Menominee River further to the north for some rougher water but in a large 8-person guided raft.

While we didn't camp, I did walk the campgrounds. They are nicely wooded and interspersed with small cabins (also available). While nicely wooded and next to the river, they are not secluded. The bath house was desent and typical of most such campgrounds.

Overall experience was fantastic and I would highly receommend it to others.
