Kind of pricy for what you get. However, there is not much available in the area. We are not golfers either...

The resort is comfortable and pleasant and the grounds are gorgeous. We loved having access to the outdoor swimming pool. The staff are excellent - gracious and kind and went out of their way to help the older members of our group who had mobility issues. The restaurant features simple pub food but it was all tasty and satisfying. We'll be back before the season is over!

Clean spacious room, very friendly and helpful staff, restaurant on site had very limited options unfortunately but the food was good. Great wedding venue and wedding service and food was excellent. Not much to do on site besides golf or go to the pool or bar but a great place to stay for a wedding or if for some quiet and space away from the city.

The property is beautiful. The only thing negative in my opinion is more variety in the restaurant…. A bit more upscale.

I thought it was expensive not to have breakfast included. And then the cost of breakfast was steep for what was served.

It was quiet- that was expected for this time of year, so it was nice. However, it was not clean. There was hairs all over our comforter that didn’t belong to either of us, we paid extra as we wanted a jetted tub that didn’t work, when we walked in it was absolutely freezing, the glasses were still dirty with lipstick stains. We both ended up feeling absolutely miserable and left the hotel that night instead of staying we drove the 2 hours home. We were supposed to hear from the supervisor the next day and we have yet to hear from them this is now Monday evening we left Saturday evening. Check in went wonderful they let us check in early over the phone due to it being the off season and it being already “clean” even though we still didn’t arrive until 3:05 so really it was only an hour early we checked in we could’ve checked in at noon had we been in the area. The employees we dealt with were great but our overall experience was far from.

We’ve stayed at the Wilds a few times but this was the first time we went on the Spirit Trail. We really enjoyed the walk through the woods and along the Salmonier river. So many beautiful sights to see.

Very disappointed with our stay. Attempted to eat in dining room on 3 occasions during our 2 night stay. Not open once. Ate in bar once. Second time there wasn’t any food service and the third was a ‘limited’ menu of 4 items. Had to leave property often for food. Conditions of property show lack of maintenance and do not reflect pricing. Least favourite of our stays during vacation and the most expensive. No tee times available during 3 day stay.
