Our History

In 1910, the Baker Brothers founded Wildwood Crest by constructing 40 single-family homes, including ours. These homes were featured in a brochure aimed at families seeking summer vacation spots. To make travel easy, they introduced the Mudhead, a train that transported visitors from Philadelphia and northern cities to the shore. Our home was one of the original 40, marking the early days of Wildwood Crest’s development as a seaside destination.
