Great place for 14-20 people

We had a great time at Wildwood Lodge! Having 9 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms is really hard to find - great kitchen, lots of space for groups to gather, wonderful starry nights, and a nice clean lake. It was a great week in late August and left all of us with a very special family memory.

Family Gathering

Our family gathering at the Wildwood Lodge in Wolverine was awesome. The place was perfect for our large group. The lodge was clean & nicely decorated plus the kitchen is adequately stocked with cookware, dishes, utensils, spices, etc. This is a great place for large groups & we highly recommend it. Thank you to the Wildwood Team!

Family friendly vacation lodge

We are a family group, ranging in age from 10 weeks to 74 years. We had a lovely week at the lodge. Enjoyed the private beach, and campfires on the island. We rented a pontoon boat and loved the easy lake access! We made lots of good memories. ❤️

You won't find a property like this anywhere else. Nine bedrooms each with their own bathroom, a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable common spaces. All with a simply spectacular view of a beautiful lake. This was our 3rd or 4th time back and each year we see improvements on the property. It's beautiful, clean, and one-of-a-kind! Kim and her team are wonderful to work with too!

Wildwood Retreat

Our Family had a great time. Lots of bedrooms each with their own bathrooms was fabulous! Two refrigerators, two stoves and the Blackstone made things so much easier. The little kids all absolutely loved the beach/pond area, many made use of the kayaks. Thank you to the hosts/owners for making this great place available.

Great family vacation at Wildwood Lodge for a second year!

Our family, ages 5 through 74, met for a week and we enjoyed having enough bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. There is a great view of the lake from the deck. We liked the well equipped kitchen, the common areas, and the island with the fire pit. We spent a great deal of time in the water, cruising, tubing, and paddle boarding. Plan to return next year!

Great time!

Our very large immediate and extended family had a wonderful time. The house was clean and well stocked. The full bath in every bedroom was a great feature. Great communication with the owner/manager-we had to call them for a minor issue and they were quick to respond and resolve it. We would rent here again.

Family vacation

The fishing and kayaking on the lake were the highlights for the week!! Very private beach. The kitchen has 2 large refrigerators which was a necessity for our family of 14. Every bedroom has a bathroom but the showers are super tiny. Any time we had a question, the owners replied very quickly.

Snowmobile Trip

We had a large group stay at the lodge for our annual snowmobile trip. Everyone had their own bed, and every room has its own bath/shower! Great kitchen, as we cook all our breakfast and dinner on the trip. Nothing was needed, the lodge has it all! We will definitely consider staying here again! Thank you, the #snirtydozen
