Hereford Inlet Lighthouse

Wildwood News - admin - December 27, 2020

Experience Wildwood’s wonderful history at Hereford Inlet Lighthouse. The lighthouse is a landmark that recently underwent a painstaking restoration. When I initially pulled up to the grounds,

Hereford Inlet Lighthouse is located at Hereford Inlet, on First and Central Avenues in North Wildwood. Hereford Light began operations on May 11, 1874. The tower is 49.5 feet tall, with light elevation rising to 57 feet above sea level. The light is visible for 13 nautical miles.

A severe storm in 1913 damaged the light’s foundation, requiring it to be moved westward about 150 feet. In 1964 the old light was replaced by an automatic light tower, but in 1986 the light was again placed in the lighthouse.Free tours of the lighthouse are offered during the summer. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this lighthouse is open for tours, which are a fun way to spend an afternoon if you’re seeking a break from the beach. Tours take visitors through the lighthouse’s many period rooms, and guests are encouraged to explore the surrounding gardens (which are immaculately manicured and, frankly, quite impressive). Tours cost $9 for adults and $3 for children under the age of 11.

Jurassic Adventure Mini Golf

Wildwood News - admin - March 17, 2020

Jurassic-Adventure

A mini golf sight for those that like the game, the theme of this mini golf course is dinosaurs! A great game for kids that understand the game, they can walk around different dinosaurs and enjoy the creativity of the little area. This is a great way to spend a couple of hours when the weather cooperates.

For many visitors its a tradition that they have to stop at Jurassic Adventure Golf at least once a summer. We used to live in the area and since moving away, we always come back for family. So Jurassic golf is a must.

It’s a simple little course that’s fun. The holes aren’t incredibly challenging which I think makes it great for the kids. We don’t have any kids but there’s almost always a couple families there when we’re there. Staff is friendly. Some free parking but it’s free to part on the street there so you shouldn’t have a problem parking.

A fun, family-friendly and prehistoric mini golf course located in North Wildwood. Open 10 a.m. until 11 p.m. daily in the summer season.

TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL OWNERSHIP OF A VACATION RENTAL in WILDWOOD

Wildwood News - admin - March 2, 2019

Its a Real Business

This is a business not a hobby. Owners of Wildwood rentals will need to learn how to effectively market their rental. There is a wealth of information at your fingertips on the internet on rental strategy and techniques used to operate your rental. Marketing your Wildwood rental takes time. There is too much competition to think your property will be chosen by travelers without proper marketing.

What are your Goals

Owners need to set goals. How many rentals do you need each year to reach your financial goals of ownership. Know your ROI and calculate what it takes to run your rental at a profit or break-even point. Have a clear plan on how much income you need; how many weeks need to be rented; and the return on investment for all their marketing activities.

Someone always know more than you and they can help

The internet can be a wonderful resource for owners of vacation rentals. Many Wildwood rental owners share information on how they run their rental business. Tap into online forums where owners discuss everything from rates to reviews.

Tap into Local groups and share local information with your traveler base

On Facebook there are many location based groups who share information about vacation rental ownership in their area. Different areas can require different marketing strategies. Knowledge is power.

Build your own website

Travelers have little time to parse through hundreds of properties to find the right rental. Build a website to market your rental more effectively. Make it easy for a traveler to find out about local events, restaurants, shops and more by posting this information on your rental website. Make sure your rental can handle bookings and process payments. You must take advantage of having someone interested in your property by giving them easy access to book.

Use Listing Services that do not charge service fees to travelers

Every traveler has a budget. Stay away from listing services that charge service fees to travelers. This additional fee can range from 5 to 12 percent of your rental rate. Travelers are savvy, they look for ways to avoid service fees. Many travelers list with traditional listing services like WildwoodRentals.com to avoid service fees. More travelers are likely to search locally for rentals without fees. List your rental with a local listing service.

Think local

More and more Wildwood travelers are searching locally for a vacation rental. Whether its through a realtor or a local listing service travelers can get better information about the area and its rentals. Local owners and realtors know the area better than any national listing service. Check out WildwoodRentals.com for a great way to market your rental.
