Our room smelled of cigarette smoke and mold. They didn’t have another room to offer us. The room was small and overlooked the roof which had water laying on it. Overall, a terrible experience.

Beautiful spot

Room was great. Had a little difficulty climbing the step to the second floor but they assisted us with our suitcases. Normally would take advantage of kayaking and biking but friends dont do either

We loved our room and the property. Our only complaint was the breakfast. It did not look like the pictures and while a lot of fresh fruit there were no breakfast meat or egg option. . I was looking forward to the bagels and salmon shown in the picture. It would not deter us from coming back at all, will just be prepared next time to have other breakfast options.

We stayed one night, not taking full advantage of Wylder: it's more than a hotel (yet maybe less than a resort: you would be happy not venturing off the property for a day, but you might not camp out there without other activities in mind). Upon arrival, there was still time for us to take out two kayaks and play some cornhole; we ate at the excellent crab shack on site and enjoyed smores at one of the firepits that night. We thought the continental breakfast was above average. The entire space and layout is beautiful. Had we stayed longer, we would have taken a bicycle ride, enjoyed the pool, and had a sauna. Our room was fine, the bathroom had a toilet and a tub with a showerhead (but no bath spigot, so not really set up for a soak) -- the sink was in the room proper. The light switches were oddly placed. And we would have liked to have rinsed off sand at a shower or footbath by the shore. This is a bit nitpicky: the point is that Wylder has many great features but is missing some of the conveniences and little touches that would make things "seamless."

Great 4th of July weekend

We had a great 4th of July weekend at Wylder. The food and view was great. Enjoyed blue crabs. The room is not big but we didn't spend much time in the room. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful when needed.

Good place to destress, look out for flies

Good family trip. Generously sized room with access to saltwater pool, non motorized water sports, bikes. Friendly staff. Too many flies and mosquitos inside room, restaurant, outside. Wylder needs to invest in electric bug zappers strategically placed at the outer perimeters of the property. Restaurant menu is overpriced and uninspired.
