Holidays at the Manor House returns to Wildwood Preserve Metropark December 6 through 14. admission is free and no reservations required.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the election when Lucas County voters approved the purchase of the West Toledo estate to establish the 9th Metropark. For nearly that long, volunteers have decorated the house as a thank you to the community.
Ring in the holidays at one of northwest Ohio’s most festive celebrations. Each year, volunteers from the community transform over 30 areas of the 30,000-square-foot Manor House into a holiday wonderland. Tour the house and see why thousands of people make Holidays at the Manor House part of their holiday tradition.
Visit Metroparks Hall on the same dates from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. to see the model train exhibit by the Swanton Area Railroad and Model Club. Reservations will not be required to see the trains, however a limited number of people will be allowed inside the building at one time.
On weekend dates (December 6, 7, 13 and 14) stop by the s’more station near the Manor House from 12 to 8 p.m. for a FREE s’more.
The Manor House is accessible by wheelchair on the 3 floors decorated for Holidays. The elevator is 35 x 40 inches and does not accommodate most scooters. Thanks to a donation from The Ability Center of Toledo, there is one standard 18 inch wheelchair available to borrow on a first come, first served basis.
Please note that strollers are not permitted inside the house.
If interested in volunteering for this event call (419) 407-9840.
