Trip Reports

As the countdown to summer 2020 continues, and inspired by Bill's retro report, I thought I'd have some fun and do one as well: a trip report of my first time in Wildwood. I don't have much video of it (less than a minute, either battery issues or my dad accidentally taped over it) , I'll have to lo

Since my husband had to work on Saturday, we didn't leave until 2:30; however, this time around it only took us 2 1/2 hours to get down there. We drove in around 5:30, and usually, we like to drive around before we check-in but I wanted to get settled. I was happily surprised to hear that we had bee

Even though the weather was cold and windy, we made a quick trip to Wildwood from Friday through Saturday to take care of a few things at the house. Here are a few observations from our trip. Although the boardwalk was empty...the Coke sign was on. Unfortunately, more of the neon in Cola is not wo

Since there hasn't been much activity on the forum, I figured I'd throw up a retro report. My son was only 2 months old and this was his first trip to Wildwood. He is now 15 and worked last summer on the boardwalk. His first time on the beach. It looks like it tired him out. Dante's Inferno had j

My wife and I love strolling on the boardwalk in the peaceful off-season, especially in October. Here's our report; it was a short walk: just from Cedar Avenue to Gateway 26 and back. https://doowopcity.wordpress.com/2021/11/14/the-wildwood-boardwalk-in-october

Well, plans slightly changed. Shortly before vacation my girlfriend got word that she got a new job that starts the 1st, so we wouldn't be able to stay until the 2nd as planned. Thankfully, the Shalimar was accommodating and is offering us credit for next year's stay since they don't do refunds. To

It was our first time there. Here's our report, with some of the most beautiful pictures we ever took! I love this place. https://doowopcity.wordpress.com/2021/09/12/stella-star-at-the-doo-wop-drive-in Here's a preview.

When we're on vacation, most of my pictures and videos are mainly of my son. Since the shutdown last year, I've started capturing everything and anything so I can relive it when I'm not in WIldwood. It's almost like I'm afraid I might not get down there again. Anyway, here are some photos and videos

Stella Star was at the Pan American on Memorial Day weekend. The photo log can be seen here: https://doowopcity.wordpress.com/2021/06/05/stella-star-in-the-pan-american-lobby/ Here's one picture from it:

So I was down in Wildwood with my son for 5 days at the beginning of this month and had a great time. Here are a couple pictures and observations: We ate at the Mud Hen on Rio Grande Ave for the first time. We got some great barbeque and the service was excellent. That place is huge and they don'

I've been back and forth to Wildwood during June and July to visit with my son who is working on the boardwalk. Here are some pictures and observations during those trips. The new ghoul in Dante's Dungeon. It is located right after the old bear stunt. The Pirates of Wildwood has still not opened
