I booked this trip for my husband and I to celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary and a break away from our busy lives and demands of others. When I booked this inn I read all the reviews on this panel and it appeared that the only poor reviews came from the group of eleven women who went there for a... more

I went to my son's wedding at the Westwind in May. The staff was very attentive and treated our concerns with importance. My daughters and I have a strong allergic reaction to fabric softener. My son alerted the staff to this in advance, and they explained they couldn't control the bulk washing of their linens, but they let us bring... more

The Westwind Inn was beautiful and the staff are friendly and very accomodating. Even though they advertise to adults/couples, they had a lot of fun activities for our kids to enjoy (we were there for a wedding.) The room, although quaint and romantic, was big enough to sleep all of us and our balcony had a gorgeous view of the... more

I attended an old friend's wedding at the Westwind. The entire resort was booked by the wedding party. The grounds are just beautiful, the rooms where pleasant (with both a rustic feel and modern amenities -- whirlpool tub, air conditioner, heating, etc). The food was good, the lake was pretty, and the staff was helpful. (Note that not every room... more

Beautiful Canadian Shield country. Hiking and outdoors swimming and boating. Beautiful lodge location. Right beside an extensive private art gallery. Wildlife in the area. Handy stores in Buckhorn. The staff of the Westwind were patient, friendly and very attentive. more

I had my wedding at Westwind on May 9, 2009. The people at westwind were very accommodating and helpful. They allowed us to have our wedding the way we wanted to, they accommodated our dietary requests (vegan/vegetarian food) and when it started to rain they helped to organize a wedding inside. Jennifer the wedding planner was extremely helpful, she was... more

Eleven friends & I got together for a weekend-long girls getaway to Westwind Inn. I checked the resort's website out & assumed it would be a nice place to stay after looking at the pictures & seeing their rates -- I was wrong. The resort was nice with beautiful scenery, but very dated; the resort is in need of a... more

Please note the following negative reviews are from a group who traveled here together, and relate to the same unfortunate incident. I hope you will use your own judgment and see how many wonderful reviews we have as well. I will try to be brief but there are many remarks that need to be addressed. Please except my apologies in...

What was to be a nice, relaxing and fun weekend turned out to be a big disappointment. A group of women attended the westwind inn to enjoy their spa packages listed on their website. Instead, it was far from enjoyment, especially the warm welcoming we received by a pair of rolling eyes at the front desk they call hospitality. Upon... more

I was excited to go on a Women's getaway weekend but left disappointed. Arrived Friday evening at the Westwind Inn and found the location to be beautiful. We had chosen this inn because they advertised and informed us access to spa treatments such as pedicures, massages, pool, sauna and hot tub were available on site and told there were also... more

We attended the Westwind Inn April 17-19 for a spa getaway. It was a woman's retreat so that all of us could have a break from our hectic lives, it definitely turned into the worst getaway I have ever experienced. We were promised spa treatments that we could set up when we arrived. When we were ready to set up... more
