Cape Cod Inn
Cape Cod Inn
6109 Atlantic Avenue
Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260

(609) 522-1177
The Cape Cod, renowned for its classic spinning lighthouse rooftop sign, has long been regarded as one of the premiere motels in the Crest. Located in the Doo Wop Historic District. The motel is owned and operated by the Graiff family, which built and opened it back in 1966. The Graiffs originally owned the Pink Champagne Motel, on Atlantic Ave. in Wildwood proper. In a Nor' easter storm in early 2008, the Cape Cod's lighthouse on its spinning sign was damaged and removed. Plans to repair the lighthouse on the sign have been minimal, but the sign continues to spin and light up Wildwood Crest's Ocean Avenue strip.

Carriage Stop Motel
Carriage Stop Motel
400 E. St. Paul Ave.
Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260

(800) 247-6602 / (609) 522-6400
"Doo Wop" meets the American Colonial era in the Crest at the Carriage Stop, the Wildwoods' preeminent example of what the DWPL classfies as the "Phoney Colonee" design style. Only the nearby Saratoga Inn can rival the Carriage Stop's authenticity, highlighted by the consistent elements of brick detailing, white horizontal wooden fencing and lantern lights around the premises. The motel's large and vibrant rooftop neon sign puts the exclamation point on this clash of ages, a true island original.

Cavalier Motel
Cavalier Motel
410 E. Toledo Rd.
Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260




A great example of Doo Wop design, this motel was torn down in 2006. The oceanfront lot still sits empty. Like a lot of motels on the oceanfront, the Cavalier added a third level in its lifetime. Another classic feature of the Cavalier was its tiny oceanfront coffee shop.

Four Winds Condo Motel
Four Winds Condo Motel
404 East Denver Ave
Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260

(609) 729-4535


 Now converted to condos, the Four Winds still stands in the Crest. But that said it has expirienced some changes over the years. A third floor has been added and its large neon sign has been taken down. It also has been painted a light aqua green color. The Four Winds is an exact mirror image of the design of the Summer Sands condos next door.
