Our stay at Bayview Wildwood was absolutely fantastic! The resort offered a variety of fun activities for the kids, and the facilities, even in the cold, were great. The dining was generally enjoyable, although we experienced a slight delay with our orders. The rooms were spacious and offered a cozy atmosphere for our family, making it a perfect getaway. Overall, this resort is a great place for family fun, with a couple of minor points to consider.

The facilities included an indoor pool and various activities for kids, even in chilly temperatures. A suggestion would be to add lockers in the changerooms for more convenience.

We had a delightful family getaway at Bayview Wildwood Resort, where the kids were able to enjoy an all-inclusive experience without extra charges for them. The resort grounds were charming, and even in winter, we found plenty of activities to keep us entertained. However, while the accommodations were spacious and cozy, a few aspects like the pool changeroom facilities and some room features could use improvement.

Rooms
8.0
The Maple Cottage we stayed in was spacious enough for our family of five and provided a cozy atmosphere with good cleanliness. However, we noticed rat traps in the closets, which was a bit alarming. Overall, I'd rate the rooms a solid 8 out of 10 for comfort and cleanliness.
Service

The staff was quite attentive, ensuring a clean environment and addressing our needs promptly. However, the dining service was a bit slow at times, impacting our experience with the kids. I would give the service a rating of 7 out of 10.
Location

The resort is conveniently located just 1.5 hours from home, making it an easy drive for our family, which we appreciated. The beautiful snowy grounds had a lovely aesthetic even in winter. I'd rate the location 9 out of 10 for its accessibility and scenic beauty.

The dining experience was generally good, especially with a kid-friendly buffet. While the menu items tasted delicious, they were a bit slow to arrive at our table. I'd rate the dining experience a 7 out of 10 due to the wait times.

We enjoyed the various facilities like tobogganing and an indoor pool-even in the cold weather! However, it would be great if they added lockers in the changerooms. I rate the facilities 8 out of 10 for being family-oriented and enjoyable.

We really enjoyed our stay at the resort, especially the numerous activities available for families and the fantastic lake view from our room. While the location is beautiful, we found the dining options somewhat lacking due to events prioritizing certain guests. Additionally, the noise from passing trains was noticeable, which detracted a bit from the overall experience.

Rooms
7.0
Our room had a great view of the lake and was mostly clean, though it felt a bit dated with some old furniture.
Service
6.0
The staff was generally friendly, but our dining experience felt rushed, perhaps due to a wedding happening that night.
Location

The location is scenic and perfect for enjoying outdoor activities, but the proximity to the railway line can be disruptive with frequent train noise.
Dining

The food was good, but our experience was overshadowed by the wedding, leading to limited menu options and a hurried dining atmosphere.
Facilities
6.0
The resort offers several activities, although many were not available during our off-season visit, and the overall facilities felt in need of a refresh.

I had a lovely time at the hotel, perfect for families with the kids club and various activities. The amenities like the outdoor pool, beach area, and water park were enjoyable, but the food options could really use improvement. The decor in our suite was outdated, which affected the overall comfort, even though it was generally clean and spacious. While the gym was small, it was still nice to have the option to work out. Overall, it was a fun getaway, and I'd definitely consider returning.

Rooms

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The views were stunning, and the room was updated and comfortable, but the noise from the nearby railway was quite bothersome. Additionally, the dining options were limited during our stay, which was disappointing. Overall, it has potential but needs improvement in a few areas.

Rooms

The room we stayed in had a beautiful view of the lake and was updated with new furnishings. The bed was especially comfortable, although some furniture still showed wear and tear.
Service
7.0
The staff was very friendly and accommodating, especially when I needed to charge my electric car. However, they seemed stretched thin during our midweek visit.
Location
6.0
The hotel is located right next to a railway line, which means you'll hear freight trains passing by frequently. However, the setting by the lake was beautiful and offered lovely hiking trails.
Dining
5.0
The breakfast option I had was fine, but my partner was disappointed with hers. Given the low occupancy, the dining experience felt limited, which is understandable for off-season.
Facilities
6.0
While there were good amenities available during the peak season, many were closed during our fall visit. The hiking trails were still enjoyable, but a wider variety of activities would be nice.
