Disappointed to discover they were closed. Trip advisor (and website) stated hours of operation but when we arrived they were closed. In fact, someone on trip advisor had written a review just the day before but the administration office door listed the hours as “closed November & December” and the phone number listed on trip advisor was incorrect. The # listed on their door was not answered.

This is the mansion of Stranahan (founder of Champion Spark Plug Co) where he lived with his family from 1930s through 1960s. The mansion and surrounding park were purchased later in 1970s by Toledo Metroparks turning it into Wildwood Metroparks. The house has been renovated and preserved to show its original condition when Stranahan family lived there.

There is no fee to visit the park or the mansion and there is ample parking available. They have all sort of programs at the Manor House throughout the year (most of those programs are free). The park is open everyday from sunrise to sunset, but the Manor House has varying hours (more info available at Toledo Metroparks website). I visit the park frequently with my daughter and take her to programs at the Manor House. There is a window on wildlife room nearby (across from the parking lot) where you can watch all sort of birds eat at birdfeeders and we always enjoy going there.

They have a special event during 2nd and 3rd weeks of December (Holiday at Manor House) and rooms of the mansion are decorated with different holiday themes.

Toledo you should be very proud of this beautiful metro park and manor house. We spent several hours here today touring the gorgeous manor house and walking the trails. Stunning. So worth the visit. Tour guide Melissa was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to have as our guide. Highly recommend.

My daughter, sister-in-law and myself visited the Manor house this week. The house was decorated beautifully, the volunteers are always more than helpful and friendly and the have a golf cart that will transport you from the parking lot to the house. We all had a great time and my daughter told me that this better than anything she had ever seen on Pinterest.

This is simply a must see attraction during the first week in December every year. Each room of the mansion is exquisitely decorated in festive cheer.

Every December each room in this old historic home is decorated. Each room has a different theme. It’s a good thing to do as a couple or a family. It’s free.

While in Toledo, we had to see the Wildwood Manor House. My husband use to work for Champion Spark Plug in Pennsylvania so we had to see the estate of the family who owned Champion. What a grand home. The Manor was completed in 1938 and took two years to build. Beautiful. And the grounds were beautiful. Beautiful gardens everywhere. What a show case it was back in the day. And still is. It sits on 500 acres and is now part of the Toledo Metro Park Systems. A must see when in Toledo.

The pictures and enhanced by the gorgeous back drop of flowers, fountains and gazebos.Tours of the house are available. During the Christmas holiday the homes is open on weekends and decorated inside and out.
