Doo Wop Experience Museum

My wife and I took the trolley tour to see all the old doo-wop-inspired motels and we absolutely loved it. It was the perfect length at about an hour and 15 minutes, the narrated tour was done so well with a great mix of information about the history of the hotels and the history of the architecture. And it was of course just lovely to see all of the neon signs of Wildwood past :-) highly recommend this tour for anyone!

Really upset. Went to the museum and it wasn’t open the regular Friday/Saturday hours. Checked the website first and it said 6-9:30 pm. No other news or updates on the site. Called and apparently the hours this particular weekend were wildly different. As in 11am-5pm on a Saturday instead of 6-9:30. This was the one thing we really wanted to do on our family vacation. Super disappointed.

Great place! The lady working there was really sweet and had a lot of knowledge about the history of Wildwood. Very small museum though, you can look at everything in about 20 minutes. Recommend.

Cathy is a gem of Wildwood, hilarious and knows her stuff. The museum is small, but it's absolutely packed with memorabilia, some of which is in the process of being restored. The hours on Google were incorrect when I went - they've been updated now, but if you're interested in checking it out, it might be good to just stroll over and see if they're open.

Wonderful experience. The guide this evening was very personable, informative, and showed us unique features of specific items (e.g. rotating shelf in a fridge.)

Awesome boneyard of old wildwood. Very nostalgic and joyful. Especially if you are of a certain age. : )

It’s a small room with old stuff from 40s to 2000. It was interesting for my daughter because she had never seen a rotary phone or a cassette tape before.

This is a free gem! Stop and talk to Cathy about the history of Wildwood and the preservation that folks are doing. It doesn't look like much, but it's worth it.

It was ok ! Had some cool stuff to look at nothing mind blowing . Definitely great memories of years gone by . It's a nice little pit stop when your walking around Wild Wood.

Stopped by tonight at 9:00 to ask how we buy tickets to the tour, since their website has no information or a place to purchase tickets, and the phone is out of order. The doors were locked when we walked up, which it says they close at 10:00 so they were still open for an hour. The RUDEST lady comes over, unlocks the doors and yells at us that they're closed. We asked if this is where we go to purchase tickets, she throws a newspaper at us and tells us to read it to figure it out. I said well online it says we can purchase from the website but the website has no link. She, very very rudely looks at me and says "listen honey, I know NOTHING about the tours." Which is funny because on their door it says that the tour leave from there, so you would think the person WORKING there would know something about a tour that is offered. She then slammed the door in our face. She's very lucky I was with my mother in law, or she would have had a different tone. Now we are not spending our couple hundred dollars on multiple tickets. We will he taking our money else ware.

October 9, 2016--Went to the intersection at 4500 Ocean and Davis, saw NO SIGNS for this Museum, asked the guard at the Convention Center, he knew nothing, Now I see the picture below, we were in the right place. Is it closed??

The Doo Wop experience museum is one of m favorite spots to visit in Wildwood. In case you did not know, it was constructed from the old surfside restaurant. It is decorated inside with tons of mid-century fixtures and every year it is fun to look around. There is also a interactive wall which shows a bit of history of the island which is a lot of fun. If you're in Wildwood, don't leave without a visit to the Doo Wop experience museum!

Limited hours, not very big, but still worth a stop to learn a little history of the area and see cool furniture, lamps, and other paraphernalia. They offer a tour which I wish we were able to do. It probably would have upped my rating. Next time.

As a doo wop/general 50s enthusiast, I was excited to find that there was a Doo Wop museum in Wildwood. In all honesty, it's a good place to spend 15 minutes checking out their homage to Wildwood's Doo wop era past. It's a cute place to stop and learn a little bit about the history of Wildwood and its motels.
