Wildwood Manor House

Historic estate built in the 1930s reflects the 18th-century Georgian architectural style and includes more than 50 rooms and 16 fireplaces.

Reviewed By Mehrads - Toledo, United States

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.

Fifth Third Field

Fifth Third Field is in the heart of Downtown Toledo and is home to the World Famous Toledo Mud Hens.

Reviewed By xdanballx - Syracuse, United States

We finally made our pilgrimage back to Toledo to see a mud hens game, and our first in Fifth Third Field! We were blown away, the staff was overly friendly, the stadium and seats were spacious, the concessions offered a wide array of foods and drinks, and the park was absolutely beautiful. I would recommend seeing a game at this ball park ANY day.
