Wildwood Resort: established 1929
Managed by Perry and Teresa Anderson since 1994
The 
Wildwood Motel and Cabins is located within the city limits of Gunnison, Colorado. Built in 1928 by the Chicago Mafia, the Wildwood has been a favored lodging facility for vistors to Gunnison from all around the globe. Colorado and our out of state visitors who come to Gunnison to fish, hunt, ski, bike and enjoy the outdoors have made the Wildwood their home away from home for over 80 years. To meet the changing desires of guests, we upgraded the motel units and condominiumized them and then built modern 2 and 3 bedroom cabins to economically accommadate larger parties. We now only rent select motel units and the new cabins.
When you stay with Perry and Teresa, we’ll help you plan out your day fishing on the Taylor or Gunnison Rivers, or any of the other 2000 miles of rivers and streams in the Gunnison basin. As avid outdoorsmen and sportsmen we can visit with you about hunting, ATV trails, fishing, golfing, hiking and biking. We also can give you recommendations for your evening activites. We live and work on-site and we are here to answer your questions.
Blue Mesa Reservoir is the largest lake in Colorado and is a favorite for Kokanee Salmon fishermen. The lake is a short 10 mile drive from the Wildwood. The Gunnison Country offers many activities for the outdoor enthusiast and you’re sure to find a place and activity that will allow you to rejuvinate your spirit and put a long lasting smile on your face.
The Wildwood has long been a favorite vacation retreat for families and sportsman when visiting or even working in the Gunnison area. We are not your typical roadside motel. We are built and maintained in a park like setting, we have an on-site laundry facility, picnic pavilion, ample boat and ATV parking, fish cleaning station, a family atmosphere, and we are clean and quiet.
Our modern motel units with kitchens are perfect for the budget conscious family. Motel units have 1 or 2 queen beds sleeping 2-4 guests. Free basic WiFi near the office, cable tv and local phone calls are standard. All motel units have private baths, furnished kitchens and linens provided.
