Enjoyed our stay. Clean spacious rooms, large pool, helpful staff. Great location for visiting St Paul, St Croix Valley and Shopping. Good restaurant attached to hotel. Our rate included $8 coupon for breakfast at the hotel. This hotel appeared to cater to business travelers but suited us perfectly.

We stayed at the Wildwood for a family Christmas Party. A large group of children, teens and adults. The party room just off the pool area worked well and the pool and poolside rooms allowed for easy access and supervision of the kids. The rooms were clean and well maintained. The staff were friendly and efficient. The dinner was catered by the adjoining restaurant and was good. The hotel provides an $8 off coupon per person for breakfast.

The negatives--

The pool was fine on Friday evening and Saturday morning, but became very crowded on Saturday afternoon (other partys) with lots of kids. They must have increase the chlorine level on Saturday, as several of our young ones developed a rash and red, burning eyes.

If you sit together in a large group for breakfast, the restuarant will automatically tack on an 18% tip, even for the buffet. Some members of our group ended up with a tip charge that was triple the cost of the breakfast.

All in all, a fun time and we would go back.

Came across Wildwood Lodge while researching prices in the Twin Cities. Excellent hotel, very friendly and attentive staff. Stayed with 3 young kids. Room was a little tight but we just chose the one with 2 queen beds. Roomy bathroom -- 2 person shower. Convenient location if you don't mind being a little outside of the Twin Cities -- right next to the interstate. Machine Shed restaurant excellent for breakfast -- each guest received $8 voucher. Be sure to check out the reserve today, pay today price on Wildwood's website -- we got our room for $80 versus $120 we found elsewhere.

Stayed at the Property because I had work near by. I was concerned because it wasn't a Brand hotel. I was so impressed with the property. The rooms were beautiful, the lobby and pool area were unbelievable. I have stayed at so many of these tiny pool area hotels that you are so excited when you stay at a hotel that has space like this. Upon check in I received breakfast coupons and drink coupons, where do you get that anymore.
The staff was great, it was apparent they also love the hotel, I really liked that.
The Machine Shed is the restaurant, I had never eaten at one of these although it is a well known product in Iowa. It was out of the world. The food was like the food my mother would make when I was a kid.
The entire stay was great, so nice not to stay at a chain and the price was such a great value. I hope to take my family there.
